Hecture- Those of the Treant

Evolving from a tree to be its spirit, given the blessing of Gaia to be her guardian, Hecture is a Treant, or more formally, an Ent. Hecture was raised by Stone giants, when his father found him while he was on a trip to a Theran meeting of all of the Beserkers of lands near and far. His mother was a black-smith, in which his sir name, Hammersmash, originated. They were mountain giants, and while his father, a few of his students, and himself were fishing, Hecture noticed his reflection in the water, and discovered he was different. He realized he had always been smaller then the other giants, and was more intelligent, but he never realized it to this extent. The other mountain giants had never noticed anything was wrong at all, they were either not wise enough to know the difference, or did not wish to question a respectable Guildmaster. Hecture was five when he noticed he resembled something all to familiar, but it was not apparent at the time. When Hecture was seven, it was pointed out to him that he was a tree. "A tree?" Hecture said with anger, although it all made sense inside. He had a craving for nature, and he had joined the guildhall of the Rangers, not Beserkers like his father had. Hecture did not confront his parents at the time, they noticed one day that he was unhappy, and asked why this was. Hecture informed them that he was a tree, and in this community was important to fit in, to do and be as your father is and was. After he told his parents of his difference, they shunned him. They did not want a child that was not self-confident. After he left his home in the mountains, he traveled all over until he was well into his three hundred and sixteenth year, and found Thera. He had refound his original home, and the forest of Drkshytre, which was a place that would soon change his life. Hecture heard voices, they were fellow Treants, Ents, and perhaps Gaia herself. The Treants taught Hecture of his history to the best of their knowledge, and also told him of his cause. Gaia had grown impatient, and she created an army to fight the undead, demons, and the unnatural beings. Much like she created the Sirens for the seas. But Hecture was different then any other Treant Gaia had created, Hecture was created to command this army of Treants. Although Hecture is not fit to command such an army yet, he awaits his day to begin the cause in which he was created.
