Root Areas

Root Areas

ELEMENT │ REGION & BIOME

Root areas are fictional locations where gigantic roots weave overground and underground to create tunnels, bridges, hollow spaces, and avenues of dirt, stone, and tree. These roots may belong to giant trees or a forest of giant trees. They may be combined with underground tunnels. Root systems may also be above water, as in the case with mangrove forests, which may allow for boat travel between and underneath these giant roots.

Synonyms: roots
Example Mythonyms: the Roots
