Adwetherai

"'This is the worst that could ever happened to us.'""'Incorrect. The worst that could happen to us is when the Tree of Life would start wilting or if it was chopped down.' - Queen Jennah responding to Minister Caudecus."Adwetherai (in Common often called Melandru's Root but more frequently the Tree of Life) Is a seed that was planted by Melandru after her ascension towards godhood during the Exodus. Essentially, the immeasurable flora of the Adwetherai is one, if not the largest cataclyst of Ether that flows through Tyria. It's regarded as the stabilizer of the climate and radiates pure, unmolded magic energy.

History
Before the Exodus, Melandru planted the Tree of Life, to stabilize the flow of Ether throughout Tyria. From this, the Eladrin are born with the help of Dwayna. After defeating the corrupted god Abaddon and banning him into the Realm of Torment of the Mists, Melandru inherited the divine power of nature and earth by the Elder Dragon Mordremoth. Caring a lot for the vegation and magic stability, Melandru used her newly obtained power of the gods to transfer a part of her soul into the Tree of Life. Hence why people then start to call it Melandru's Root.

After the Exodus, from the fruits of the Adwetherai, the second generation of High Elves came into the world. The Eladrin were direct descendants to Melandru's - (and even Dwayna's) influence and divine energy. The prosperous growth of Adwetherai accelerated the forming of trees and other fauna until the great Celadon Forest came to be. The Eladrin then built the Grove, the first major settlement ever in Tyria, engulfing Melandru's Root.



Location
Adwetherai is located on the southern part of Celadon Forest, near the Tarnished Coast. Since it's self-claimed property of the Aereni, only a few other species ever got to witness the Tree of Life from close range. The Wood Elves' primal instinct to protect and nurture the Adwetherai hindered most of the populance of Tyria from doing so.
