[h3][color=green]The World Tree - Sphere of Plants[/color][/h3]
The Sphere of Plants is made up of a tree so massive it defies mortal comprehension, so massive that to call it anything other than the World Tree would do it a disservice. The World Tree’s roots form the ground, its upper branches and leaves the sky of the Sphere of Plants. The region closest to the World Tree’s trunk is made up of rainforests and jungles. As the distance to the World Tree grows greater, so too does the variety in types of forests. Tropical forest give way to boreal and temperate forests, which eventually give way to savannahs and grasslands. 

Due to its nature, the Sphere of Plants possesses weak borders and the regions near its edges are easily influenced by nearby spheres. Altered by Asceal’s Lustrous Garden, the World Tree’s top most leaves emit the light as if they were stars themselves, bathing the whole sphere in a soft, nourishing light. Mangroves form endless mazes in the regions of the sphere close to Eurysthenes’ Infinite Maze. The World Tree's roots extend all the way into the World Spring from which it absorbs water. This water helps nourishes the World Tree and is also deposited into the Sphere of Plant's mangrove as well as leaks out of the World Tree's branches and leaves, thus creating rain in the Sphere of Plants. The World Tree's roots, in turn, releases sap into the World Spring which the spring can convert into more water.

The World Tree is the first plant. It is the progenitor and source of all plant life on Galbar. When new plant life is formed the World Tree blesses it with some of its energy, causing it to grow much faster and more wildly than the plant otherwise would. Symbols and ruins of civilization are quickly, comparatively speaking, overtaking by nature due to this fact. In places on Galbar where the World Tree's influence is greatest plants grow larger than normal and are more nourishing to the animals that consume them, allowing the animals to grow larger than they otherwise would.

The Sphere of Plants would have an entropic nature due to the nature of its borders if it wasn’t for the influence of the World Tree, which ensures that all within the sphere remains properly ordered.

Plants: Where Phystene wills it forests grow. In her footsteps flowers bloom. Plants alter the world to fit her vision of beauty. In a sense plants help bring order to the world, as the roots of trees help anchor the ground, preventing some of the erosion caused by rain. Yet at the same time they require the nurturing of rain, and sometimes destructiveness of it, as well as the fires of destruction, to nourish the ground and allow the creation of new life. Wherever there is soil, light, and water so too will Phystene’s children grow. When she desires it plants grow, and should Phystene decide it necessary they wither and die. She has the power to change the form and function of any plant and can create entirely no forms of plantlife.
[h3][color=green]Persona[/color][/h3] 
Chaotic good in nature, Phystene is a benevolent being who seeks to spread life and the beauty it brings to every corner of Galbar. Phystene is a creative being, always feeling the need to create and alter, never quite happy with her creations and seeking some sort of perfection while fully understanding that to be an impossible goal. For her the journey and destination are of equal importance as is the process of creating and the final product. Phystene is a gentle being and wishes harm and suffering on no one. Despite this she understands that death, and even pain, are a part of life.

She possesses a serene nature and is slow to anger. She has a strong dislike of advanced civilization, though is happy enough to ignore it so long as it doesn’t intrude on her forests. To her civilization represents greed and, while she is fine with a mortal cutting down a tree for firewood or to build a shelter, large scale logging and the like are things that she will not stand for. Perhaps the one other thing that she hates more, perhaps the only thing that she truly hates, is metal of any form. 

Phystene doesn’t require or expect mortals to worship. Despite this she has a habit of coming to the aid of mortals in need in her forests. She feels that the forests of the world exist for the benefit of all life, thus all are welcome to its bounty so long as they do not take out of greed or malice. She welcomes those who are willing to abandon advanced civilization for a feral or tribal life with open arms. Some view her as being an entropic or capricious goddess as she doesn’t provide aid equally, but those who truly understand her nature knows that she couldn’t possibly aid every living thing in need at all times.
