Deep within the heart of the High Forest, the Grandfather Tree towers as a living monument to the primal powers of nature and ancient elven sorcery. This colossal arakhor, summoned by the Aryvandaar elves in ages past, now serves as both guardian and symbol of unity for the disparate peoples who venerate the wild. Its immense roots cradle the sacred Hall of Mists beneath its canopy, a place whispered to be older than memory itself. The Tree Ghost and Blue Bear Uthgardt tribes revere the Grandfather Tree as an ancestral mound, its surrounding terrain marked with rotted stumps, standing totems, and ceremonial stones. Druids, satyrs, wood elves, and nature's champions gather here beneath the watchful grace of Eldath, Mielikki, Silvanus, and Rillifane Rallathil. The tree bears the scar of a mysterious fire from 890 DR, all but one low branch consumed—a branch now kept as a relic by the Blue Bear shaman.

The Grandfather Tree’s vast trunk rises like a pillar of the world, its bark ridged and gnarled with age. Four towering oaks frame its roots, encircling mossy stumps and weathered Uthgardt totems. A faint mist coils around its base, catching filtered green light from the dense canopy above. Runes glow faintly among the roots, and birdsong echoes through the leaves—a hush of reverence blanketing the grove.
