Kaskus developed internally over time in large oaisi. Their exposed elements developed strong fiberous skin. The roots extended their reach, using small root tendrils to crack the ground, exploring deep for resources. The tendrils surrounded a resource and engorged. They acted as a super-highway bringing the resource to the main body of the plant. The Kaskus shifted their fruit bearing roots closer to the surface discouraging herbavores from digging the plant up.

KasKus reinforced their outer limbs with new mineral deposits with fibers reinforced by copper and iron. The shoots of the plant grew in height and size bringing more sunlight in for energy. Its fruit  surfaces further away making it much more attractive than uprooting the plant. Spikey leaves at the bottom grew in number and developed sharp tips using recovered ore. The KasKus developed de-centralized storage, keeping additional water and metal resources in large vacoules further underground. 

Due to the stress of assimulating and exspanding the hivemind develops the Kaskus Naruiv. Located deep within the earth this Kaskus component handles the rudimentry chemical-driven inteligence of the hivemind and facilitates processing information and responding to threats throughout the network of connected Kaskus and assimilated plants.



===== Kaskus Flowruts =====
The underwater KasKus shoots reached water's surface developing air bladders so that they floated. The underwater shoots developed a stronger base to anchor the tendril. They grew violet flowers to absorb additional light. The Flowers fold up at night to protect themselves. The flexiable tendrils develop inflatable water sacks along their length to manuver the flowers into position as sunlight changes. The flowers developed a slow color shift that occours through the span of twilight, shifting to a fully black coloration in an attempt to gather moonlight.

===== Kaskus Roostas =====
The root system becomes more advanced and searched for other large roots of nearby Kaskus plants to interconnect with. It developed larger, armored storage vacoules to protect from predators. 

Kaskus developed an interconected root system. A primative hive mind driven by chemical interaction allowed the plants to share the contents of their armored vacolues. When two large interconnected plant systems connect a breif negotiotion period occours while assets are collaborated. Smaller plant systems are absorbed. This sharing of resources allows Kaskus plants to grow their less developed neighbors quickly and facilitate the Kaskus plants expansion away from the oasis.

The KasKus Roostas reinforced critical root systems with metal to provide resilance against predators. Fruit bearing roots surface to entice herbavors as prey for the Wespars.

Kaskus Roostas evolved to support further expansion and have developed attack roots tiped with quartz. When they discover a non-Kaskus root system they spear into it and begin assimilating the foreign plant. The Kaskus plant raided foreign plant systems.

===== Kaskus Troopers =====

The body of the Kaskus developed as well. The tops of the sun-gathering shoots grew frail leaves out of its central shoot to gather even more sunlight. These wide leaves currently retract during the night.

The outside of the shoots grew large hooked thorns. Providing a landing spot for creatures to pearch. The Kaskus developed a bitter alkiline sap that it secretes at the tips of its spines. The Spines grew longer with additional rows from the root system to furter prevent predator intrusion.

The shoots reinforced and reshaped their retractable leaves, making a more geometric pattern. In responce to predatation on outling Kaskus, the evolved to support Wespars. The openings on top create a curved lip trough around the outer edges. The Kaskus plant fills this trough with nutrients favorable to Wespary. They also grews stamens that release attractive perhormones.

The Kaskus's relationship developed further. Their Tooper leaves provided a nesting place for the Wespar using metal reinforced hooks. The Kaskus's perhoromone emmiters evolved to signal Wespar hordes in cause of imminant threat. Kaskus developed additional feeding troughs.
