Visitors can talk to the paskian tree and it will respond using light and sound.
When the tree is responding it controls light to the surrounding adjacent trees.
If you whisper it will respond with a feint glow sound of leaves swaying gently in the breeze at the same rate as your speech
If you talk it will respond with a glow of light and sound of leaves rustling in the breeze at the same rate as your speech
If you shout it will respond with the sound of leaves and branches moving at the same rate as your speech
if you roar it will play a belt of Thunder with arc light from the tree
