## Personality

The Washington Monument Special Tree displays an intelligent behaviour unseen with other Special Trees. When an individual is severely injured within a proximity of the Washington Monument, they will bleed out for what seems to be an infinite amount of time. Providing the Special Tree with a steady flow of sustenance.

## History

1840 - First photograph of the special tree.

The special tree was discovered around this time. It’s unknown who discovered the Special tree that would later become the Washington Monument. In the video, “she missed her friends and the hymns they sung” is likely referring to the screaming sound or "song" when the trees are activated in RUSHMOREREVENGE and MAIZEMOVIEMAKER.

1848 - Construction of the Washington monument around the tree begins.

Somehow, the people constructing it knew that something bad would happen if it were to grow more. It’s possible that info about the pyramids containing trees in Egypt would have gotten to America, and that would be the reason for wanting to contain them. However, it is much more likely that the power of the tree was known before construction, considering that they made the monument hollow and just twenty years later, use it to put prisoners of war into Wonderland.

1861-1865 - The construction of the Washington Monument is halted due to the Civil War, and prisoners of War are brought inside.

By this point they knew they needed to contain the tree, and of its supernatural power. The prisoners of war being led into the tree are likely the many people that were in Wonderland when Virginia was there. Since the space is outside of space and time, they got in there at the same time that Virginia did.

1888 - The Washington Monument is completed.

**The enclosure around the special tree is completed, it’s possible that its enclosure goes down infinitely like the pyramids do. It is unknown how they would build something that’s infinite, but that’s what they did with the pyramids.**

**1910 - The Washington Monument becomes a popular tourist attraction.**

**The Washington Monument becomes popular, likely due to the music the tree plays sometimes inside the monument.**

1948 - Virginia goes into the Washington Monument.

After waiting 9 years, getting with Leonard Morlin and having a son named Everett, she goes to the tree and it tells her to go to the Washington Monument. She then accidentally sacrifices herself and becomes the 19th Washington absentee, her son becomes the 20th. Since Wonderland is outside of space and time, the everett she met Inside there could be her child. After all, he did say, “You could be her.. anyone could be her.” The other version of Virginia is also lured into the monument around this time.

1910-1971 - Twenty people go missing at the Washington Monument.

From 1910 to 1971, 20 people go missing at the Washington Monument, they are known as “Washington Absentees.” We know Virginia Arnoldson and Everett are among the 20 people. All the people who went missing at the tree were very likely sent to Wonderland.

2000 - The Washington Monument is vandalized.

“THE INFECTION IS NIGH. THE MUSIC OF WASHINGTON WILL END.” It’s almost completely certain that this was written there by the Angel. The infection he’s referring to is the spread of the special trees and the rise of wonderland.

2003 - 19/20 Washington absentees are found unconscious at the base of the monument.

This includes Virginia Arnoldson. Wonderland rises, trees grow out of the ground everywhere around the Washington Monument. After her lobotomy, she likely forgot everything that happened about the tree.
