Understanding Trees..
So two important trees, Gauranlen Tree and Anima Tree..

Got a Gauranlen seed and all over the discussions / google it basically just says 'do all these details steps to get the seed aaaaand then just plant the seed'. But I can't see anything on 'how do I plant this seed'? Do I drop it out of inventory somewhere specific? It isn't showing up in grow zones, I can't right click it in the inventory... how do you 'plant'?

Also I hear I'm not supposed to build near the Gauranlen Tree, 3x3 area I think? Is that 3x3 around the tree (so nothing right next it) or like 3 in every direction (so like a 7x7 box with it at the center)? And does that include sculptures, incense holders, fences, meditation pillows... what is it you can't build?

And there is an Anima Tree on my map but far away from everyone and everything / in a bad position.. I can seem to extract every tree but that one. Is there a trick to moving it? Or making it drop a seed so I can plant that somewhere better? (I think the 'don't build near this' also applies for Anima but can't remember for sure - I'll check but if there is.. same questions as for the Guaranlen)

Anima Trees are immobile. If you want to move one, kill it, suffer the mood debuff, and hope it respawns somewhere better. They do not abide by the strictures or limitations of anything relating to civilisation, including being in a sub-optimal position for some supercilious house-living monkey.

Now, regarding the Guaranlen seed, you select it whilst it's still on the ground (so drop it from your inventory) and choose to plant it anywhere under open sky from there. You cannot build anything except floors and roofs close to either Anima or Guaranlen Trees without imposing on their natural aura. The Anima Tree has a larger one that is visible when you select it, the Guaranlen Tree has a smaller one that doesn't show (I don't think) but there will be a red line linked to it if you hold a blueprint of anything too close.

sweet, planting the seed worked :D Sad that I can't put cool statues around it and such but good to know. And sad that I can't move the Anima Trees, my monkeys wanted to dance on its branches in a nice defensible position.. but is what it is. >< Thank you!
