= About = As a world tree grows, it goes through three cycles, its first cycle lasts 50 years during which time it is called, Silver Tree (銀菓樹). In the next fifty years it is known as a Golden Tree (黄金樹). Only after it has survived 100 years does it become known as “a true World Tree.”

All of the mana in the world of Gaia ultimately comes from the World Tree It is able to gather mana at will by communication with the vegetation around it. With the help of someone who can communication with the World Tree, it can then send that mana to other places.

= History =

Two hundred years before //Langrisser V// Lainforce began take care of the world tree, gathering Mana, hoping to help restore the mana its people desperately needs. Lainforce is the one who later gave samples of the tree to Gizlof knowing that he’d create someone who could communicate with the tree to finish his goals.

During the Events of Langrisser V the World Tree is first encountered by Sigma and Lamba as they escape the lab that Sigma wakes up in. (Although it is isn’t until later that they realize that it is was tree that helped them to escape).

Following the death of Gizlof as they return to his laboratory trying to figure out what to do next. There they encounter the world tree once more.

As Brenda explains, The world tree is the origins of living plants and is, in some ways, like a King over all flora. Sigma realizes at this time that it was this tree that saved them when he and Lambda had first awoken.

As he realizes this, the tree suddenly communicates with Lambda warning her to be careful because a disaster is coming.

Later after Lainforce kidnaps Lambda’s mother, he forces her to communicate with the World Tree to send half of the mana on Gaia to the red moon, Crimzonia.

The World Tree, at Lambda’s request, helps one last time in the final battle, to help stop Pelia from destroying Gaia.
