We stopped at the edge of the shadow cast by the gargantuan tree. The section of the forest directly beneath it grew meters apart from each other, ranging from ten to fifteen meters between trees. Bushes were scarcer, but grass was abundant. The amount of visible animals diminished considerably, as well, with mostly just insects and bugs moving around.
"What kind of tree is that?" I asked, looking up at the thing a little over five hundred meters ahead.
The surrounding trees were similar to beeches covered in thick moss, making the singular gigatree an outstanding oddity considering the extremely wide canopy.
Lapia took the massive tree in for a few seconds. "Probably a Great Oblis," she replied, a little unsure. "But the size is a bit out of the norm. They're not from around here, too, so maybe an odd variation of the local trees."
I turned to her and raised my eyebrows. "A bit out of the norm?" I repeated in disbelief. "That's proper abnormal, Lapia!"
