The Grove (GW2 Zone)  

The Grove is the sylvari capital located within Caledon Forest, and is the location of the Pale Tree.

Hundreds of years ago, the Grove was the site of a village of human exiles, including Ronan. The villagers were massacred by Mursaat while Ronan was out adventuring. He planted a seed he had found in a cave upon the graves of his family, and in grief made a vow of non-violence. He was joined by the pacifist centaur Ventari, and the two remained there, attracting a small following, watching the pale tree grow until their deaths. Before he died, Ventari created a tablet containing his morals and his philosophy, which were imprinted upon the sylvari who would eventually emerge from the tree.

This location shares many parallels to what was once known as Ventari's Refuge, in that it was founded on values of peace and mercy, and that it is also the location of a specimen of rare tree.
