Legend of the Tree of Life

A seed fell in the abyss. Bloody corpses were disposed in the abyss. Without sunlight, water, oxygen; only absorbing the blood of corpses it kept growing, slowly and surely. One day when it has grown enough to rise above the abyss, people stopped disposing blood corpses into it. They become scared of the tree's growth, so they tried to cut it down, making it bleed. The blood of the tree watered it again, making it grow even larger and taller. So they stopped trying to cut it and the tree stopped growing. Yet the ten thousand years war continued. Although the tree didn't grow bigger, its roots expanded far and wide, allowing it to drink the blood of millions of corpses on the battlefield. Thus, its growth resumed again, its height eventually reached beyond the skies where it developed giant flowers. The pleasant smell of the flowers covered the entire world, and the war finally stopped.
