Code entry
Indians made arrowroot flour from coontie plants. Have that available in the market in St. Augustine. Then as wheat flour gets scarce, Coontie arrowroot flour also becomes scarce. The Indians are starting to fight over the roots of the Coonties and the Coonties are dying in the hot spots. Have Francesca try to buy arrowroot flour from an Indian lady who jacked up the price and Francesca can't afford it. So Francesca asks her how she makes it. The Indian woman says, why would I tell you that.. then you will tell everyone else and go take all the Coonties. Francesca, understood. She apologized for asking. But then later she saw the Indian woman going into the woods. She's sneakily snuck after her and followed her and watched as the Indian woman found some Coonties, pulled up their roots, cut off the branches, and went home with the roots. But the lady had some protection against the Coonties being toxic. And then Francesca tried the same thing and got sick from it.
