Silver Seed

The Silver Seed.

The Silver Seed is an item of potent magic which exists in the past of Serpent Isle. When planted, the seed itself germinates, and the Tree of Balance grows from it. The Avatar's task then in Serpent Isle was to obtain the Silver Seed from where it was held, and plant it, so that a new tree could grow, helping to halt the terrible War of Imbalance which swept across the face of New Sosaria.

Originally, the seeds appear to have originated on the world of Pagan, before its destruction at the hands of the The Guardian. One at least is known to have been brought from that world by Morghrim, the Forest Master (who resides in the Northern Forest on Serpent Isle, and is also keeper of the Orb of Elerion). However, when asked about the seed, Morghrim admits tells the Avatar that unfortunately his seed was damaged when he fled the fires on Pagan which destroyed the original Tree of Balance, as travel between worlds caused the seed to split, and its magical essence to be destroyed.

The Avatar eventually manages to locate another seed in the time of Serpent's Fang, and from this, the Tree of Balance is restored.
