This Tree would be discovered by [[the Guardian]] and [[Eris Morn]] in the heart of the [[Cradle]] on [[Io]]. Eris claimed it formed when the traveler first terraformed Io, not knowing that Osiris planted the Seed, but the connection between this tree and the original is unclear; however, the flavor text for the Seed of Silver Wings recovered from the tree strongly implies that both share a similar nature. Moreover, [[Ruinous Effigy]], a trace rifle created from a branch of the tree, shares the motif of ruin and disaster described by Ruin Wings' flavor text and [[Mk. 44 Stand Asides]]'s loretab.

==Discovery on Essence==
{{Main|Tree of Silver Wings (Essence)}}
Following [[Root of Nightmares|an incursion]] inside a [[Essence|terraformed Pyramid]] once inhabited by [[the Witness]], a team of [[Guardian]]s discovered that the terraforming beam of Light [[the Traveler]] used against the Witness had grown a Tree of Silver Wings deep within the ship. Its roots started to grow all over the Pyramid, changing and terraforming it. When the guardians faced [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain|Nezarec]] it had grown up to form a fully shaped Tree.

*Despite it being referred to as a root within the [[Root of Nightmares]] [[Root of Nightmares#Objectives]], the massive structure heavily resembles a Tree of Silver Wings along with its ability to feed off of paracausal powers.
