Following the self-sacrifice of the ancient Neti Jedi Master Ood Bnar in 10 ABY to eliminate the Imperial Executor Sedriss QL on Ossus, as told in the legends of Neti, a seedling emerged from the earth where he fell. This seedling was meant to safeguard Bnar's memory, and to keep watch over Ossus and the remains of the Great Jedi Library.
