Lore & Background
The Root operates as a covenant with an inherent lean toward dissolution, serving as the base for all living essence. Its original state dictated how evolution drew from the substrate until external intervention occurred.
In Book 12, Cael reached the root through Burl's door to alter its fundamental law. He successfully made choice the new root law of the living world.
