Alternative: persist
Research rendering: blighting force
At 3:117 the noun is contained in a wind that strikes cultivation and destroys it. It is neither an agent nor a knowingly chosen course, so the exact wind-borne segment contradicts the persistence core and is a lexical collision. The wind contains the noun, strikes a people's cultivation, and destroys it, fixing a wind-borne blighting force.
