The strange sapling

[Discoman]

I usally think of someones gender based on avi's but....ya. Of course I always just refer to a person by name.
   I guess it is a typo. But if given by Gaspar, maybe he did it some time ago. Maybe she one day brought it up to the queen and was then ordered to exterminate it. The fact of the Gurus giving it to her could be planned. The seeds I think represent how one moment humanity may look down at something that may seem insignificant, then in it's hour of need is required to put it's hope into it.
 Edit- CRUD DOUBLE POST! Someone please delelte the first one .

Or you could delete the second one and copy and paste the information into your first post. -_-

Gotcha covered.

I refer to myself as both. Gender is pointless on the Internet, and only serves as a distraction from a person's personality and intellect, which is the heart of the Internet in the first place. He, She, refer to me as you wish. I don't give a damn.

Imma' just call you Aura, savvy? ^-^

Inquiry
Three saplings are seen throughout the game. The first was made by Melchior and given to a woman in Zeal; it was later planted by this woman after the fall. The second was seen inside Fiona's hut, and was presumably planted by her to restore the forest. The third and last appearance came in 2300 A.D.; this sapling grew out of a seed held by a dead Arris Dome man who ventured underground to find food. The first seed is the only to play an active role in changing history, as it allows the Fiona's Forest Sidequest. But do these seeds really have mystical qualities? The first clearly allowed Fiona's Forest to hang on long enough to allow the Sunken Desert to be exposed and entered by the time travelers. The second seed probably assisted in Robo's restoration of the forest, and the third gave hope for the people of the ruined future (and presumably was going to bear fruit before history was changed).

Very well said.

The second quote is strange because the guru of time is missing or out of scene in Crono timeline.
Is it possible that Gaspar time traveled just to give the sapling to this woman a make it survive the destruction of Zeal?

Isn't it possible that she obtained the tree prior to Gaspar being thrown into the future?

I think the 2300 seed might have been a normal one but...

Anyway, what if Melchior's seed isn't magical, but rather was engineered, through science and genetics, to be an aggressive plant that could thrive in a multitude of environments and could at the same time, create byproducts that gave the necessary nutrients for other plants to grow as well?

He could have dreamed it up too, like an item that could one day save the planet in it's darkest hour.

[GreenGannon]

I know you can dream sentient beings, but we've never seen an object dreamed up.

Well, CT revolves alot around dreams, will and hope. Heck, the CT will only work if someone dreams enough or hopes enough and wills enough for their loved one to come back.
