The world was not peaceful a hundred years ago. Most of the tribes were fighting for supremacy and the central continent was embroiled in chaos.
And it was at that time that a new danger brought all the tribes to their knees.
It fell from the sky on a sunny day, decimating everything around it in a kilometre radius.
At glance, it looked like a meteor. Although rare, it was normal for meteors to strike the planet. Yet somehow, this time, it was different.
The meteor was alive.
Small tendrils of roots sprouted from its core and took root in the planet. It quickly grew to a height of hundreds of meters. Turning the decimated land area near it into a lush green forest.
Quickly the people got wind of the mysterious lifeform and began worshipping it as a god. As if it was a new spirit guardian. Among them were the power-hungry tribes and powerless people.
Like that, the tree grew to a humongous size.
