The fallen leaves tell a story in this epic Elden Ring inspired build

The Lands Between are a vast and deadly place where the glowing Erdtree towers as a guiding light and source of hope. Builder Nathan Hake has taken inspiration from Elden Ring for this truly epic LEGO creation, but his intent is to depict the Tree of Life itself. A massive black sea serves as the model’s base, giving way to an island of rock, overgrowth, and a tree that should not exist. The enormous tree is rooted on the very end of the precipice, giving a perception that it may tip the whole island. As Nathan put it, ” I wanted the island to look untouched by man but have enough structure to seem like a phenomenon created by an other worldly being.”

A closer look at the rocky cliffs shows the literal hands of these divine beings as they seemingly lift the tree heavenward.

Through a series of minifigure scenes, Nathan tells the story of a traveler seeking out the fabled tree to restore life to a fallen love. This tiny boat is dwarfed by the colossal terrain, but it’s an impressive build on its own.

While the immensity of this build is intense from a distance, the real sense of scale comes through at minifig perspective as we see our main character ascending to the tree.

Even though vegetation covers most of the island, an altar awaits at the base of the tree. Will the traveler’s wish come true?

Nathan debuted his model at last month’s Christchurch Brick Show in New Zealand.
