Well,
What's the real "function" of the Sagar Tree on the planet itself? What did create it in the very first place?
I've always assumed that Overlord wanted to control the tree because it was a "catalyst" for the primary magic energy too powerful to ignore.

The "function" of the Sagar tree on the planet, like all other trees, is to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen, photosynthesyze light, draw water & nutrients into it's roots to turn into food for itself, grow, and reproduce.  Couldn't resist.  Anyway... since Terra talks to it and seems to get a reply, it has sentience. It is also powerfully magic. When Balkar poured a potion into the stream that flows beneath it's roots, that activated it's rainbow forcefield to protect itself from harm. I believe it also channels the pure magic of the planet, converting it into elemental magic which is why the Trobbits made it their home. Since it is so ancient, huge and powerful, I'm sure the Overlord covets it's power to increase his own. It seems Kadre had a plan to absorb it's power in "The Lord of Time". |

Am I supposed to laugh? LOL.  What? What type of reply? Maybe the "autumnal" scenario surrounding it is a direct consequence of the elemental magic which the tree "emanates". |

I think only Terra could answer that question. Telepathic, empathic... something along those lines.
