Maybe it faces away from her more private quarters. Sleeping would be hard, for sure, otherwise, but showering and dressing would be even worse!
Maybe it's just a carving in the tree, or a plaque?

I blame Mysa for corrupting impressionable youth.
She's just flaunting her cross-Kingdom relationship with a Mineral, and now young Glorith has gotten the wrong idea and is shacking up with a tree-dude!
Scandalous, really. Is nothing sacred? Dating other species? Fine. Dating your own gender? Fine. Dating someone from another time period? Whatever. Dating a fictional character from your favorite holo-drama? So last century, darling, but do what makes you feel good.
But dating a rock or a tree? Oh dear.

Isn't there a magic talking tree in one of the Grimm fairy tales? Like Cinderella, maybe?

Snow White has a talking mirror which is sometimes shown with an ornate wooden frame. That's the only Grimm tale I remember similar to the tree. Although, come to think of it, I seem to remember a Russian film version where a tree was the source of magic for Cinderella's dresses and things, which were in acorns. Hmmm.
The Wizard of Oz has the talking faced, apple throwing trees.
Tolkien and C.S. Lewis have trees, Tolkiens have faces and talk, that move, walk and fight.
Pocohantas by Disney had a magical tree with a talking face.
To name a few magical trees in stories.
DC's Amethyst stories on Gemworld/Sorcerers Planet, which we know is where Mysa and Blok are now, had faces like that tree's on all sorts of surfaces. The faces never looked very happy, like this one, either.

The first Neal Adams Deadman stories had Rama Kushna appearing as a face on a tree.

Anyone else remember the talking trees from H.R. Pufnstuf?
