The majority of Gadoba Trees found in amulet resided near Demon's Head Mountain. They were burned down by Luger, who was tracking down Emily at the time. However, Gadoba trees are also found on Typhoon, on the Daikon ranch. Their fruit is said to be a sacred elixir, provided the right one is picked. If the wrong fruit is picked, the consumer of the fruit will die. The Elf King has also sent elves to get fruit, but they all failed to succeed, given the fact that only 1 in 100 fruits will work. These odds are furthered by the correct fruit being the rotten ones, a cliche detail that made it even more rare for someone to pick correctly.
History[]
Over many years, many individuals – most of which were Elves – came to the Gadobas seeking their fruit's sacred properties. However, due to having picked the wrong fruit, all of them had died. Slowly, the ground surrounding the trees became littered with bones.
Leon was told by the Gadobas that a young Stonekeeper would appear in their time of need. What they had foretold years ago happened to be true. Now with Emily Hayes, Leon lead her to the trees in order to pick the cure for her mother. She ate one of the fruits to test it. It tasted terrible, but was, in fact, the right fruit. Leon suddenly noticed movement in the distance, and announced an abrupt departure to the Gadobas.
Shortly after, Luger appeared to the trees. Noticing the ground littered with elf skulls, the commander saw no reason to spare their lives and quickly burned them to the ground – which Emily, Miskit and Leon later noticed. Before perishing, one of the Gadobas asked his brother if this marked the end, and the other replied that it would be a new beginning and their are new type of gadoba tree there are blue ones in book eight and they grow feathers that cleans the air.
Gadoba trees also appear on the Daikon Ranch. Navin arrives at the Daikon Ranch in Book 8, Supernova to collect baby Gadoba trees from the ranch.
Trivia[]
