Pale Perfection

The light of perfection bathed them at all times. That did not mean, however, that the system was perfect in and of itself. It had accomplished it's first phase well enough, but was reaching the point where exponential doubling was reaching all the low hanging fruit. Direction was almost exclusively stream-like. Identical provisions flowing outward from a central location. Regular, methodical, and almost entirely self-absorbing. One could only water a garden so long before it became saturated. Cultivating entirely the same type of plant produced a mono-culture. It wasn't that the soil couldn't produce other fruits, it was that same metrics were used – albeit on a sliding scale, for all plants. Mushrooms don't grow the same way as flowers, and will never have the same petals.
