Located at the centre of the [[Temple of Gaia]] in the [[Western Ithmia]] [[:Category:Forests|forest]], the '''tree landmark''' became 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 [[devotion (statistic)|devotion]] or [[life 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.) | |||
[[Category: | 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]]. | |||
