I swear, it wasn'twho brought it up. The Holy Lady just happened in deliver the Everlife Vine, and she mentioned it first: When Nolan got angry, it was downright terrifying. He turned his head to Ross, who was standing just behind Lawrence, and shot him a piercing look that needed no words.

And it happened to be the Everlife Vine, you know, the one you need the most " Honestly, Ross and Lawrence had both been caught off guard. Ross could already guess what Lawrence had been thinking.
