The [[Dorim vine]] is a plant used as a water source on Dayside by its inhabitants, areas where they grow are not considered to be desert. The plant stores water primarily as a defensive measure against other creatures as its water dissolves the shells of many sand creatures. Because of this any creature attempting to eat the plant would find their mouths beginning to melt.{{book ref|ws|3|review=yes}} As a result, the growth of Dorim vines limits how large sandlings can grow.{{book ref|ws2ws|39|review=yes}}
