The group made their way through the forest emerging on the other side. Everyone stared in awe as the palace loomed in front of them. It was bigger than anything they'd seen before and rivalled the size of the entire capital city of Elfhiem.
"Oh wow, can I assume the tree roots around the palace belong to the world tree?" Shaman saw how the palace was overgrown with plants and tree roots, but assumed this was the result of the world tree the elves protected.
"You would be correct, currently the tree itself is hidden, but its roots still reach the palace. They are well-kept and match wonderfully with the white walls, but I can't imagine the amount of work needed since, well, they can't stop the tree from growing." Kiruya confirmed what Shaman said and elaborated further on why the palace looked so overgrown.
"So this extravagant palace lets the tree grow into it?" Elysia hated the looks and couldn't imagine the mess it would create.
