Far away from the dragon planet that Jian and Alec were helping alongside James, on the largest elven planet, Luminara.
The very planet where the Tree of Fate stood. Its branches, as always, were visible even from outside the planet's boundary, extending beyond the clouds. However, it had withered, leaving not even a single leaf on its once-magnificent branches.
