Home to the druids, this massive tree is one of two of its kind, the other being the Skytree in Irondell.

Although not so much a city as it is a landmark, the massive Faytree is home to the druidic Tribe of the Great Faytree, who dwell within its branches and roots. The Faytree is one of two trees of its kind; the other being the smaller Skytree, located in Irondell. The Tribe of the Great Faytree have built their society around it, creating elegant wooden structures in its roots and branches that compliment the tree rather than overbear it. These druids believe that the Faytree has existed since the dawn of time, gifted to the druids by the earth goddess Metun. No matter its origin, the Faytree towers above the forest canopy, serving as a beacon to the area. Animals and humanoids alike flock to the Faytree for healing, respit, and protection from the plight of the outside world. Though welcoming to the wounded and forsaken, the Faytree is by no means defenseless: the Tribe of the Great Faytree wield powerful earth magic and would die to defend their sacred home.

Long before any humans reached the treelines of Fayhelm, a war broke out among the elves and druids, who had coexisted for much of antiquity. The elves claimed both the Faytree and Skytree as their own, staking their claims on both territorial and divine rights. The druids, typically a peaceful people, argued that the Faytree was theirs by right of the earth goddess Metun. The elves responded to this claim with force, driving the druids from central Fayhelm and pushing them to the forest outskirts. In return, the druids began to weaponize their potent use of gaia energy against the elves. The war raged on for several decades until a druid named Caietus rose to prominence. With his tactical skills, leadership, and ferocity, Caietus cut through the ranks of the elves and took the Faytree for the druids, ending the long war.

Recorded on the eve of the 14th moon, the estimated population of the Great Faytree is as such: 841 druidic members of the Tribe, 78 outsiders (65 of which are wounded), 58 earthbound creatures, 54 native fay creatures, 31 airborne creatures, and 23 endangered creatures (16 of which are paired with mates). These are each broken down into their subsequent categories…
