Koohii Story 1 Water is doubly mysterious. It´s in all our nourishment...and yet, it´s really not nourishing at all.
Koohii Story 2 Going off the idea of the right side meaning rapid growth/increase of small objects, I´ve decided to make the right side be Gremlins, those little mysterious creatures that double rapidly. Gremlins find water a little too nourishing, as it makes them instantly multiply.
