The '''Tree landmark''' was also known as the '''Gaian Tree'''. It was used to imprison [[Gaia]] after She was driven to madness and slew [[Twilight]], also referred to as [[Gaia's betrayal]]. Several years later She was cured and released. The Gaian Tree became the '''Great Oak''' after releasing its essence to save the forests after Gaia's departure.
Located at the center of the [[Temple of Gaia]] in the [[Western Ithmia]] [[:Category:Forests|forest]], the '''tree landmark''' was the focal point for the local energies fallen from the dead star [[Ethian]]. Once a [[year]], during [[Ethian's Crossing]] in [[Sarapin]], the tree could be influenced and its energies swayed toward either generating [[devotional essence|devotion]] or [[necromantic essence|essence]]. To influence the tree's alignment, icicles from the [[Vashnar Mountains]] and cubes of blackwater from [[Lake Belladona]] had to be melted on the tree. When more icicles were melted, the tree became known as the '''Gaian Tree''', while more cubes of blackwater melted brought '''[[Thoth|Thoth's]] Bough''' into being. (The Gaian Tree was so named because it was used to imprison [[Gaia]] after She was driven to madness and slew [[Twilight]] in what is today referred to as [[Gaia's betrayal]]. Several years after, She was cured and released. Later still, the Gaian Tree became the '''Great Oak''' after releasing its [[Divine essence|essence]] to save the forests after Gaia's departure, though it continued to represent the "[[Good]]" aspect of the tree landmark in this renamed form.)

The tree became defunct with the other landmarks after the failed experiment by the [[Conclave]] resulted in the [[Reflection Incident]]. Remaining dormant for the years to follow, the tree finally surrendered its latent power during the [[Birth of Destruction]] to give rise to the Lady [[Makali]].

The tree landmark was also the site of the yew seed planted by the [[God|Goddess]] of Destruction that would later figure significantly in the birth of the Goddess [[Artemis]].
