At the heart of Istarion, two crownwood trees grow intertwined: one silver and one gold. These ancient trees act as a conduit for a powerful stream of life energy, similar in many respects to the soulbleed nexus of the Underworld. Many centuries ago, the tsol'dasi separated from their brethren, the Tsol'aa, quitting the world of mortalkind and travelling to the far north. There they discovered the jungle of Istar and founded the city Istarion within the branches of what would come to be called the Two Trees. | At the heart of Istarion, two crownwood trees grow intertwined: one silver and one gold.

Powerfully adept at magic, the Tsol'dasi were able to manipulate the flowing energies of the Two Trees and create the magical [[Wall of Power]] to seclude themselves from [[human|humanity]] and the [[War of Humanity|Divine war]] they had fought on their behalf. | Powerfully adept at magic, the Tsol'dasi were able to manipulate the flowing energies of the Two Trees and create the magical [[Wall of Power]] to seclude themselves from [[human|humanity]] and the [[War of Humanity|Divine war]] they had fought on their behalf. |
