Similar to the Tree of Life, the Trees of Death are used by the Creator at a given time. The Trees of Death have been dwindling due to being attacked by the evil monsters in Creation. At present the elder Trees of Death were put in "containment" by the evil-controlling-spirits so they could not perform their job role. Their function is to act as guardians of Creation in case evil gets out of control, and then destroy all life at the Creator's behest if and when the time comes to start over Creation. There is a rule among Creators, that you must, "Know when to Destroy." Earlier today an attempt was made to free the elder Trees of Death to no avail, as the evil monsters that were containing them managed to destroy them - chopped up and unrooted - before they could be freed. Before being destroyed the elder Trees of Death managed to transfer some knowledge to the younger trees, and some of the younger trees are attempting to evolve into elders (they have black bark, with white glowing fruit, which are edible and transfer knowledge, similar to an apple). A decision was made by the Creator to make a new angelic class for the elder Death Trees spirits that had passed on called Death Angels. They are now in the angelic realms attempting to clean up Creation of evil spirits. I wish them luck...
