In the first book, all the characters are introduced through their encounter with The Tree. Pay close attention, and you might spot how the threads weave through each character’s own journey.

Every name the forest gives the young tree fits a little worse than the last. What finally settles the question is not a name at all, but a journey inward, to the roots.
