A comprehensive and, frankly, unsettling compendium of observations, extrapolations, and theoretical constructs surrounding *Cocashweed* (Chronospora coccinea), a species encountered exclusively within the Temporal Echoes – localized distortions in the flow of time.
The *Cocashweed* exhibits a disconcerting fluidity. Its ‘leaves’ – if they can be termed such – appear to shift through multiple temporal states simultaneously. One moment, a vibrant crimson; the next, a dull ochre, then a faded grey, before returning to crimson. The sensation is… disorienting.

We’ve noted instances of 'temporal bleed' around *Cocashweed* clusters. Objects – primarily tools and personal effects – have been found displaced in time, appearing briefly in different cycles before vanishing again. The effect is localized, approximately 1-3 meters in radius.

It’s theorized that prolonged exposure to *Cocashweed* could induce 'temporal dissonance' – a state of fragmented memory and altered perception. The risk of creating a localized time loop is considered significant. Furthermore, the observed 'bleed' effect raises the unsettling possibility of the *Cocashweed* acting as a conduit for… something else. Something older. Something *wrong*.
