Atlas Tree

Atlas Trees are a very strong species of Tree native to Espan Layer Forests. Atlas trees can survive several millennia before they die.
The Atlas trees are the most common trees in the Layer forest, because of their immense strength, they are the prime trees that carry the weight of higher layers of the forest.
==Appearance==
Atlas trees have very wide white logs often over 10 meters wide, and no branches till the top where they branch of at the top forming a dense lime-colored foliage, they can extremely vary in heights from 15 to 50 meters, as the tree reaches maturity it erupts in an indigo foliage. Unlike any other trees, it transforms its foliage into soil for its offspring. Atlas trees live interconnected with each other as the new samplings grow on top of the old trees, as the old Atlas trees age their logs gradually get a darker shade of grey as they accumulate carbon until they inevitably decay. The tree is eventually crushed by the weight of the other generations accumulating on top of it and compacted into a carbon rich mass, eventually turning into large natural resources and in some occasions even diamonds.
The trunks of these trees are often covered with Black Eegels, parasitic plants who steal nutrients from the trees.
==Trivia==
* The name comes from the Titan Atlas who was forced to carry the world in greek mythology.
