The giant tree deserves its name, for it is truly gigantic. It's a single tree larger than many forests, so large that you could build towns and castles on its thickest branches. Because of its dense foliage and immense size, there is a zone of perpetual night around its base. This has resulted in the evolution of strange and interesting flora that glow, much like what you can find in evernight forest, and some bizarre creatures dwell in that place. The giant tree is also famous for being home to two giant nagas: Crisis and Anna. The former is a well known predator, dreaded for her great appetite for humans; the latter, a well known grouch.
The crown of the giant tree is like a little world of its own, with gentle hills made of leaves, a lake carved in to the bark of a branch, and gentle streams flowing from the lake all the way down to the ground when it rains. The place is surprisingly teeming with life, with a large gathering of giant harpies, sitting on branches, sleeping around the lake, diving down from the crown to go on hunting, coming back with prey to feed to their young, or squabbling with each others. With each of those harpies having their individual feather color pattern, it makes for a bright, colorful, and beautiful spectacle. Under their talons, the interior of the crown of the tree is like a sea of leaves with its own, unique ecosystem and strange animals navigating it.
Interestingly, the giant tree is worshiped by the sect of the Arborian Laborists who dubbed it "Mother Fel".
