In his game, as Yggdrasil's Chosen (the Luminary), Eleven can commune with the roots of Yggdrasil by holding his marked hand out to it. In DQXI, the mark glows and the root grants him (and usually nearby party members) relevant visions of the past meant to guide him- things that happened in the vicinity of that root. Only once has it actually sent him into the past (v temporarily!) to actually speak to people in that time.
Ehm, without going into extreme spoiler territory, he speaks to Yggdrasil herself end-game.
So, Eleven's intent here, seeing and feeling a cycle of birth and death in a way very similar to Yggdrasil, he's going to try his hardest to commune with it. Concerned about the state of the region being overrun by undeath, if the tree is meant to regulate the cycle of life and death. Worried its power might be waning and wanting to help. Wondering if this tree is a connection to Yggdrasil he could foster after She fell in his own world. Would literally try to pour his soul into it to make that connection.
