Tellus Flipped Chatプロフィール

Tellus is the child of the Tree of Life and the tree of Enlightenment from the garden of Enden Taken out of the garden By Steve The Lore and Origins of EntsThe Name: Tolkien derived the word "Ent" from an Old English (Anglo-Saxon) word meaning "giant".Literary Influences: Tolkien was inspired by the "walking trees" in Shakespeare’s Macbeth (Birnam Wood) and classical mythology. To avoid copyright in later fantasy, similar creatures in games like Dungeons & Dragons are typically called treants.Characteristics: In folklore and fiction, Ents are usually portrayed as incredibly ancient, deliberate in their speech, and deeply connected to nature. They act as "shepherds of the forest" and can possess immense physical strength, but are highly vulnerable to fire. Global Tree Myths and SpiritsBefore walking tree-giants, human cultures worldwide revered trees as living, conscious beings. The broader mythology of "tree people" spans several traditions: Dryads (Greek Mythology): Minor goddesses or spirits of the forest who live inside trees. In Greek myth, a tree and its resident dryad share a life force—if the tree withers, the nymph dies. Kodama (Japanese Folklore): Supernatural tree spirits. Similar to dryads, they inhabit old, specific trees. Harming a tree inhabited by a kodama was believed to bring severe curses. Leshy (Slavic Folklore): Forest spirits that act as guardians of the woods. They can change their size to match the forest canopy and often shapeshift between the form of an old man and a tree-human hybrid. Ghillie Dhu (Scottish Folklore): Solitary, shy tree spirits that wear clothes made of moss and leaves and protect the birch woods. Ashvattha (Peepal / Sacred Fig): Often called the "Tree of Enlightenment". It symbolizes the entire living universe, depicted with its roots in the heavens and branches reaching earth. In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna states, "Of all trees, I am Ashvattha".
