This week's theme is trees 🌲
Many stories in have trees in it, some of which I will be telling in this thread.
The most famous tree-related myth must be the transformation of Daphne. Hit with Eros' fiery arrows, was burning with desire for the nymph and pursued her when she fled from his advances. Feeling her strength wane, Daphne prayed for help from either her father or Gaia and was turned into the first laurel tree.

Hey there!

I'm CKMo, and I'm a taiwanese high fantasy indie author. I'm trying to bring more works with influences into western culture via my novels.

You can find all my publishing sites, social media, and discord server in my bio!

The video begins on a graphic created using a picture of a black book on a red tablecloth. The picture has been edited to replace the cover of the book. The edited cover is an illustration of a landscape that is dark, a sprawling castle with a kingdom surrounding it, misty clouds twisting between structures. In the sky framing the tallest center spire is a vast circular halo made of glowing flame and light. The captions on these frames of the video read "Love high fantasy series? Here's what's on the table!" The next frames include a video of mountains with a dark cloudy sky in the background, large pines and other trees in the foothills and midground, and a field of wheat with a large, rusted farm-grade rolling sprinkler in it on the foreground. The caption frames in this portion of the video are decorated with whimsical black inked illustrations of plants, stars, potions, dragons, and books, with the background video showing through the transparent backgrounds of the illustrations. The captions here read: "A detailed world crafted from scratch, with its own unique magic system and political struggles. A realm full of dragons, spirits, magical auramasters, and battles for power and control! A charismatic protagonist using his quick wits to try to survive in this tumultuous world and find his way home. A large and diverse cast of likeable (and not so likeable) supporting characters and antagonists. A free, multi-book series in the works. Book one out now!"
