A Tree of Life (also called ToL, or just "tree") is a city asset that houses a runemaster and enables a guild to protect a limited number of buildings from any harm. If a guild leader obtains a realm, the guild's Tree of Life will become surrounded by a palace. If a Tree of Life is destroyed by an opposing force during a bane, the city anchored to it is lost or captured.

Rank Chart
Ranking up your Tree of Life is very important for city longevity and defense. This rank appears on the world map, therefore a weak tree of life may tell others you are an easy target for banes.
| Tree Rank | Upgrade Cost | Health * | Upgrade Time | Mine Limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | none | none | 1 | |
| 2 | 1,320,000 gold | 2 | ||

| 4 | 3,080,000 gold | 4 | ||
| 5 | 3,960,000 gold | 5 | ||
| 6 | 4,840,000 gold | 6 days | 6 | |
| 7 | 5,720,000 gold | 7 days | 7 | |
| 8 | see Realm and Rulership | 8 |
- * Note: The health value on the tree of life (as well as all other assets in a city) can be lowered by a mercantile charter and increased by a belligerent charter.
