Eisen looked around at the tree and chose to for now simply cut slightly into the giant Ironbark tree so that he had a slight guideline, so that he could make sure that the back-cut was really on the same level as the notch-cut later on.
This would really be an intense impact later on, that was for sure, so Eisen really had to be careful not to mess this up.
Once the guideline was finished, Eisen started looking around the area a little bit. He wanted to find the best direction for the tree to fall to. Although, since there was really nothing around here, any direction would be fine. It was just that Eisen wanted to look for a place with the hardest ground to make sure there would be as little damage to the terrain as possible.
Eisen planned on reinforcing the ground through his element later on as well, of course, but that didn't mean that he could simply let it fall down anywhere. A solid base was always important, after all.
