When Benjamin first came upon the name ‘The Tree of Time’, he immediately rejected it.
What the hell?
This is a god-damned ginkgo! What kind of relation would it have with time? It would still merely be gingko regardless of its pompous, magnificent name in this world.
There was not much information about the ‘Tree of Time’ in "The Encyclopedia of the Plants in the Kingdom". According to the book, this particular species was deemed to be extinct in the kingdom, and was a rare find in the whole of the land. Only a few leaves were kept and conserved. According to the legends, there were people who could use them to make a beacon of time and use it to travel through time and space to alternate worlds.
When he saw the phrase ‘alternate worlds’, Benjamin’s eyelids twitched.
Could it be?
