'''Yggdrasil, the World Tree''', is a colossal tree, the base of which supports the [[Vashnar Mountains]] and the very [[Pillars of Heaven]]. It is said to stretch through not only much of [[Sapience]], but a good majority of the planar multiverse as well. Nestled in its branches is the draconic planar nexus known as the [[Parthren Gare]], while the lowest tips of its roots pierce the infernal [[:Category:Planes|plane]] of the [[Underworld]]. By way of Yggdrasil, the [[:Category:Gods|Gods]] and any They permit may travel with ease to any plane in existence. The best view of the tree is said to be in the [[Garden of the Gods]] itself, where one can see it stretching high into the sky in all its glory. | '''Yggdrasil, the World Tree''', is a colossal tree, the base of which supports the [[Vashnar Mountains]] and the very [[Pillars of Heaven]].

In a desperate attempt to flee the enraged ranks of the [[kx'krah]] the demon fled to the Flame of Yggdrasil, cleaving a portal into parts unknown. This act turned the life-giving flame into a doorway, allow adventurers to enter the planar highway of the world tree and visit the different planes and worlds held within its branches by travelling up them. Many creatures and denizens brave the planar highway from the surrounding planes, including gobies, cave crickets, and a vicious species of huge, venomous [[rats]] which are known to set upon unwary travellers. | ||
The world tree hosts several planar tiers known and unknown such as: | |||
*[[Drauger]] | |||
*[[Frysta]] | |||
*[[Veior]] | |||
*[[Mannamot]] | |||
The fabled [[shard of Yggdrasian flame]], a rare artefact sold at auction in 541 AF, is an encapsulated fragment of the World Tree's resurrective potency which returns [[adventurers]] to life from any location. | The fabled [[shard of Yggdrasian flame]], a rare artefact sold at auction in 541 AF, is an encapsulated fragment of the World Tree's resurrective potency which returns [[adventurers]] to life from any location. | ||
