Hello again PMC! We're taking a bit different approach to how we present this build and letting everyone see it from the start. This area will serve as the main capital for the Nature Sect on the server. To this point we've gone about filling the valley with larger, hand made, trees. We'll then begin filling in the ground vegetation, filling in the canopy with smaller trees, and finally building the structures for the town into the tree tops. The end result will have multiple trees and dwellings connected by roots and rope bridges.In the center of the valley sits DÃdean, a large tree. The tree itself is 108 blocks high. The city will expand out from here. We're really excited to see how this one turns out.
Now... for some lore:
Upon creating the subraces, Danu planted her favorite tree, an ancient species of tree that has since been lost to time. As She brought the many races into the world, the tree served as their first shelter. It is said that the name they gave it, DÃdean, means "refuge" in the ancient tongue, as the tree served as shelter in their earliest days. Over time, many departed DÃdean and the valley to create their own lands. However, a dedicated group of followers still makes their home among the trees of Danu's Cradle. Their dwellings can be found in the tree tops as many river trolls have made their homes along the streams and ponds of the valley. The creatures are extremely territorial, and many find it best to simply stay away from them.
Beyond serving as a home, it is said the tree also serves as a magical link between Danu and her followers. Many Druids also teach that DÃdean itself has the ability to create, should the races ever destroy each other.
Now... for some lore:
DANU'S CRADLE
The only sect in which the Daughter of the Creator, Danu, is worshipped. Being the goddess of fertility, agriculture, and healing, the worshippers of Nature tend to follow these three tenets. Often pictured as a woman of stunning beauty with flowing dark red hair, tied with flowers surrounded by nature itself Danu is often seen as the more peaceful of the gods, yet her wrath is often seen to be funneled through the extreme part of the sect who call themselves o Woodsieso . Shrines to Danu are dotted all over the world, often found in places where rivers and streams collide, or nature blossoms

Update #1 : by FracturedForgeMC 07/11/2013 12:54:43 amJul 11th, 2013
We done a considerable amount of filling in around the main hand-made trees. This was done with a combination of Vox, Word Edit, and some block by block placement.
We are finally ready to begin putting structures into the tree line. These will be comprised of hanging huts and elevated structures. These will then be connected via rope bridges.
One step closer to launching!
