The '''Tree Spires''' is one of the three divisions of the thermal zone, a [[Biomes (Below Zero)|biome]] dominated by large, branching Hydrothermal [[Coral]] called [[Tree Spire]]s. It is the home of the [[Ventgarden]].


It borders the [[Thermal Spires]], [[West Arctic]], [[Purple Vents]], [[Delta Island]], [[Lilypad Islands]], [[Crystal Caves]], and the [[World Edge]].

== Description ==
The biome has many large tree-like Hydrothermal Vents that are covered in small vine-like [[Flora (Below Zero)|Flora]]. It has many types of Flora and [[Fauna]] including two species of [[Leviathan Class Organisms|Leviathans]]: Two [[Chelicerate]]s and two [[Ventgarden]]s, with the Chelicerates and one Ventgarden in the northeastern section, and one Ventgarden in the southwestern section. A couple of [[Juvenile Ventgarden]]s can be seen wandering around the biome, too.

The biome is dominated by cliffs and small ridges, with noticeable erosion in some areas. Clusters of Cliff Lanterns can be seen on growing on many of the cliffs in the biome.

The Tree Spires is one of the three divisions of the thermal zone, a biome dominated by large, branching Hydrothermal Coral called Tree Spires. It is the home of the Ventgarden.

It borders the Thermal Spires, West Arctic, Purple Vents, Delta Island, Lilypad Islands, Crystal Caves, and the World Edge.

Description

The biome has many large tree-like Hydrothermal Vents that are covered in small vine-like Flora. It has many types of Flora and Fauna including two species of Leviathans: Two Chelicerates and two Ventgardens, with the Chelicerates and one Ventgarden in the northeastern section, and one Ventgarden in the southwestern section. A couple of Juvenile Ventgardens can be seen wandering around the biome, too.

The biome is dominated by cliffs and small ridges, with noticeable erosion in some areas. Clusters of Cliff Lanterns can be seen on growing on many of the cliffs in the biome. The southern section is also reasonably deeper than the rest of the biome, as the biome gradually slopes down into the World Edge. The western section shares a boundary with the West Arctic.

The Tree Spires Fissure accounts for the small fissures found in the cliffs and seabed surrounding the Ventgardens, and the two cave systems, each located under one of the Ventgardens. These fissures hold many rare and valuable Raw Materials, such as Uraninite Crystals or Ruby.

The cave systems themselves lack many Fauna and Flora, but contain Thermal Plant Fragments.
