Léden Tree

The Léden tree is a medium to large sized tree which only grows in the north-east of the K'iltrón province. It is an extremely dense wood, which makes it very difficult to carve. Therefore only the most skilled of craftsmen, usually found in the city of Lédaqor, can make the famous figurines which bare their name. The wood has a deep rich colour, often described as looking into the blackest of nights. 
Another product that the tree is useful for is its sap. In the fall, the trees are tapped before being cut to extract the vibrant sap, often of orange-red colour. It is then used to make candies and other sweets (such as cakes and pastries), as well as wine. Both the sweets and the wines sell for high prices and tend to sell out quickly. The price can more than triple in the summer months, before the new harvest begins.
