Alton is correct it does make a semi tasty salad. The problem with that is a major lack of vegetarians or even salad lovers in the deep south based on the prevalent thinking that salad is what food eats.
The second problem is that snakes have discovered that kudzu makes an excellent habitat. They also tend to react negatively when said habitat is disturbed.

Hadn't thought about that . . . we don't have poisonous snakes here.
Rubber boas, and gardner snakes, but nothing poisonous . . . those are all east of the mountains.
About the only poisonous critters west of the mountains are bees, wasps, hornets and a few spiders.

I will be the first one to admit i have a great fear of 3 different kinds of snakes. Live ones, dead ones and sticks that look like one. Poison not required.

Here was the last time we saw her full-length but she's curled up . . . and how long ago was that in-comic? Long enough for Atsali to be off restrictions and have joined the flight team . . .
And the last time we saw Castela full-length (besides the cannon-in-the-library sequence, the accuracy/reality of which is highly suspect) was clear back at Christmas . . . and she's shorter than Dayella then.
So she may have been building up to a major growth spurt, and actively started it before we saw enough to recognize it . . . until Paul hung a lampshade on it . . .

fAnd in all of those, we can see the relation between short torso and thick (and short, relatively speaking) arms and legs. Now, however, her torso is longer, and her arms and legs are proportionately skinnier (and longer than before). She has become lanky.
Even ordinary human kids sometimes grow strangely. There was a girl in my daughter's dance class that over about four months grew about three inches... horizontally. Her hips broadened, her shoulders broadened, pretty much everything broadened. Vertically, I don't think there was any change at all. Then over the next six months I think she sprouted about fifteen inches vertically without any further widening.
(The only strangeness in our daughter's growth was the time she went to bed a flat-chested little girl and woke up the next morning needing a B cup bra. But I've come to understand that such things aren't really all that unusual.)
So throw in being paranormal, and there's no telling...
