This must be the most interesting point of view I have ever seen in a story in the Mead Hall. I really look forward to reading what a tree would think of petty human squabbles. Also nice that the tree focusses on things that are important to him (her?): the preference for a tapestry with a forest is a good start, I'd like to see more of that.

Unfortunatly, the story is marred by a number of grammatical errors. For example: at one point you switch from the past tense to the present one and back again. Also, the puntuaction of the dialogue is not correct. I have written a short guide on how to do this, perhaps you might find it useful: The Punctuation of Dialogue.

Also, in what style do you want to write it? The opening, about "plots, intrigue and deception on a grand scale, petty jealousies decide the fate of whole nations and unbridled ambition that brought a once proud realm to its knees" seems to be in a 'grand' style, but the rest of the story is pretty down-to-earth. Not that it is bad, but which style are you planning to use?

Anyway, good story, inventive point-of-view, I am looking forward to reading more.
