Scythe Tree

Biography
The Scythe Tree was once the dryad queen known as Callitropsia. Callitropsia used to rule the area around the Swamp Witch's Hut, and eventually fell in love with Nyta Colton, the daughter of the local village's headman, Wilber Colton. Nyta was engaged to marry Dorsy, another resident of the village, when Callitropsia appeared before Nyta, and the two quickly planned to be wed themselves; whether this sudden infatuation occurred naturally or Callitropsia charmed Nyta is lost to the ages. Enraged by the loss of his betrothed, Dorsy unwittingly invoked an ancient curse against Callitropsia. When the curse took hold, the dryad was transformed into the creature now known as the Scythe Tree, and she proceeded to kill Nyta, whose body was whisked away by other fey and remains in a state of gentle repose to this day.

Interactions
The Scythe Tree is involved in the quest Gnarled Branches. The Old Wedding Ring that it drops may be placed on Nyta's body for an experience reward.
