From youth to maturity - whether planted or conceived, what lives, grows, and what grows, matures. Even the undead grow. They all start out small and helpless as seed, egg, germ, cell, bud, and spur. With time they swell, grow, unfold, unfurl, expand, and enlarge. Infants become adults, sprouts become mature plants, grains become full crystals, plans become structures, and villages become cities.
