"What are these stumps doing here?"
The others asked this, but I knew that these were anything but normal stumps.
After all, I could sense the divine energy that was coming from these stumps that showed that they formed the pillar that we had been looking for.
The only thing was that there was nothing around this vine.
It seemed like there was nothing special about this vine that seemed to block the lightning from reaching it, but it seemed like there were no lightning bolts that fell on this thing.
After all, there were no traces of it being burnt at all.
Even if wood didn't conduct electricity, it wasn't as if a stump would be completely unharmed if a bolt of lightning were to fall on it.
The moment that a stump was hit by a bolt of lightning, the heat that it generated would be more than enough to burn parts of the stump. So with all the time that it had been here, it should have showed signs of being burnt by the lightning falling around it.
