Indeed! Isn't the secret of Ernalda along the lines of "She isn't
dead, she's sleeping!" You really don't want to get Humakt involved
in that situation *eek!*
I would think if a Humakti harvested anything the seeds would be
useless for planting at the very least. Whether they'd still be food
for living beings not so sure about. But yah, I'd not want Death
anywhere near harvest either.
