# Root

{% columns %}
{% column width="75%" %}
This node is the primary entry point of a dialogue branch. It is executed when the dialogue starts by default, without specifying a unique ID entry through BeginDialogue.

The distinctive feature of the Root node is that it has no launch conditions — it is activated automatically at the start of the dialogue.&#x20;
