The Earth Fragment - Terra
Terra is a broad axe formed from the branches of the dryad Ygdrassil. Sporting a twisted, leafy handle and bright green blades, this axe has the power to heal the world around it... or to create massive devastation via earthquake when it is slammed against the ground.
Like the other Anima Fragments, it can sense the presence of wendigoes and other nearby Fragments.
Manufacturing process
Ygdrassil literally created Terra from her branches and the head of a broad axe. She then infused it with a great amount of her Earth magic to serve as a weapon against the Heart of Darkness. Even now, it appears to writhe and twist slightly as the handle is kept alive by Ygdrassil's magic.
History
Terra was originally created by Ygdrassil, gifted to Adamant Ironjaw as a reward for his loyalty to her and his devotion to protecting the grove. She then sent him off on a quest with the other five Champions to defeat the Heart of Darkness.
In the fourth installment of "Jack Thunder and the Fragments of Anima," Jack Thunder and company find that Terra has returned to Ygdrassil's roots. Snotter Snail becomes the new wielder of the Earth Fragment in the end.
Significance
Terra is one of the six Fragments of Anima that banished the Heart of Darkness all those years ago. It carries the power of Earth in its very structure.

- Summer: The handle is covered with a thick, green brush of leaves.
- Autumn: The leaves on the handle turn yellow and orange and begin to fall.
- Winter: The handle is completely bare and slightly grey in color.
