“ | There is a saying that the first people were born from plants. That's why they're called “The Great Plants (Origin)”. So in other words, these flowers are like our parents. | ” |

History[]
Tower of God: Part 3[]
Before the event of Battle of The Nest, Author SIU created a short narrative about Cha's background as he introduced himself to Twenty-Fifth Baam and pledged his loyalty to serve Baam. It is said that Cha gave Baam some information about The First People, The Five Flower Nation, The Mechanical Kingdom, and stories of other Kingdoms of ancient times, stories of Cha's teacher and the little he knew about Baam's mother.[3]
“ | And Cha would come to where Evankhell and Baam was training, and told Baam that he would serve him. To a surprised Baam, Cha would tell him the story of “The Beginning People”, The Five Flower Kingdom, The Mechanical Kingdom, and stories of other Kingdoms of old, stories of Baam's teacher and the little he knew about Baam's mother. | ” |

Notes and Trivia[]
- Cha is the descendant of the first man.[2][3]
- Taecho (太初, Tài cǎo) usually means “The Beginning”, but in this case SIU uses it as 'large plant' or 'big grass' (太草). They are both pronounced in the same way (Taecho). It is believed that SIU used it as some sort of a narrative trick. Since the word Taecho is almost always used to mean “The Beginning”.[4]
