The shrunken homunculi spent every waking hour of every day tending the peas which grew fresh constantly due to an overabundance of richness of compost. Their heads were connected to the umbilical cord by some kind of stock or leek that accommodated their plant-like appearance. Never did they complain, never did they wail and never did they express discomfort because they existed connected to an unlimited source of energy. In fact, each strange pod was itself linked to its respective abhorrent creature. Their life was the soy that they grew, and they were autotrophic in that regard.
