ok there is this HUGE tree kinda in the south west portion of the land, u can see it from the cliff by the save alter before crossing the bridge with the two gaps in it which argo jumps over......now when i get across the bridge, i cant see it ne more....how the f am i suppose to get to it? ne help plz

I posted about this in another thread, although it pertains to its metaphorical significance, not getting to it. There are two ways of getting to it. 1) Running across the broken bridge and ascending the cliffs that lead up to it. 2) Travelling through the cave where you fight the Sand Worm colossi and exiting through the southern grotto. You enter from the north, but there is an exit to the south that leads out into The Lair of the Mesa (where the tree is). The tree will be right above the exit. Examine it and tell me it isn't the creepiest tree in the game.

Which one is the sand worm again? I loaned my copy to a friend and have not played in awhile.

The worm. In the sand.

(It's the one in the cave with the... large eyes, not the one in the desert.)

iv never seen that tree, iv been to that spot, i should look

Uh, yes it is. Just sit there and stare at it. The frigin sky behind it is black, its windy as hell, and its just reeks with its ominous presence. Its the only tree of its kind in the game, which makes it even more unique. Its not creepy enough to make me wet myself, but there is something about it that makes me think that way, kinda like that tree in Poltergeist that tried to eat that kid.

it is creepy, its all old and dead, and growing on a rock, but if you go into the cave, and look in the open hole on top, it looks like a jungle up there, i want to see whats up there

If you look at the cliffs surrounding the tree you'll notice they too are covered with thick vegitation. Ironic how something as dead as that tree is surrounded by trees and brush full of life.

I don't find it really different, although it is different from the game. Since where I live in the winter there is plenty of trees like that.

i think it said in the wikipedia article that a huged tree resembled the ruins of a past colusses.. my memory may be wrong and it might be a different tree

I just checked Wikipedia for like the first time in a couple months and I must say, I am PISSED! What they say about the tree and the colossi and everything, THAT WAS MY IDEA (well, I pointed it out)!! WTF!! Who in the hell thinks they can take words outa my mouth huh!!??

*takes a deep breath* OK. I was just a little steamed that I found almost my exact words coming from someone elses mouth.

I used to hug trees when I was small. Weird ay? Anyway when I get the game I'll go and hug him!
