Tree of Woe

The Tree of Woe is a landmark in the Marsh of Dead Men, the saltwater marsh located in the Forsaken Hills just due north of Axehedge. The Tree of Woe is a massive dead tree, nearly 15 feet thick, standing almost 30 feet high, jutting out of the small hill it is located on at an acute angle. The tree is so named because various skulls are hanging from it and are heaped around it. The skulls are primarily human, but alligator, bear, beaver, boar, caiman, crocodile, and panther skulls also decorate the tree. It is maintained by the Cottonmouth tribe of Forsaken, who live in the area and use the tree as a marker to warn outsiders to stay out of their territory.
