# The Mother Tree ## Dungeon Structure
The Mother Tree is a dungeon located in the frigid wastelands of Siberia, alone in the tundra one tree towers above the rest. Here the roots dig deep and strange growths appear around the forests. Not much is understood about this ancient cave system, but one thing is certain - there will be hisses and there **will** be booms. The dungeon is split into **two** main sections: an upper and lower area. *** ### The Upper Caves
The Upper Caves are infested. Here are where most of the creepers crawl up to from deeper in the dark. This section does not start the actual dungeon and can be **used as an easy source of gunpowder**, if you can avoid dying. This area can be used for farming without taking on the descent into the tree's core. ### The Inner Sanctum
Deeper into the bowels, the Inner Sanctum can be found. **New variants of creepers** roam the temple, extremely territorial and seemingly **supercharged** by the local energies. It is said they have evolved for the sole purpose of defending the tree, so venture in at your own risk! If you can **solve the puzzle**, you might be in for a fierce battle - as you go face-to-face with the **guardian of the Mother Tree.** *** ## Rewards
