Musaamik's first rainy day in this new world was an unpleasant surprise as the first droplet splashed directly into her eye when she glanced nervously up at the rapidly darkening sky. The bright sun was soon shuttered behind roiling, dark grey clouds that opened in an utter deluge of water that soaked the aalukris through in minutes as she scrambled to find adequate shelter. Though water did sometimes trickle down through the densely packed canopy foliage and make its way down the massive trunks to pool in select spots, there was never an open spot in the canopy that allowed rain to pour down unhindered.

It gathers on the branches and is channeled down well-worn flood paths down the trunks of the trees to pool on the forest floor. It doesn't really drip evenly through the leaves because the tree cover is so dense.
