The garden is a place where fertility and healing occur; the forest is where the untamed wilderness confuses and sometimes destroys the protagonists.
Characters: The Captain and The Mountebank are strong characters in this setting. The Captain overcomes challenges, and gains strength by doing so. or has his wounds healed bu The Witch or occasionally the Bishop. The Mountebank lies in wait, or unleashes destructive forces that ultimately overwhelm her.
Magical Style: This is a place of primal power. When it is the garden, representing primal powers harnessed to human will, it is a setting for healing and empowerment rituals such as the Hands of Sacred Life or Vitality of Rushing Water. When it is the forest, untamed and wild, it is a setting for rituals that unleash or destroy - whether that is the unleashing of primal emotions or fears as in Dreamscape of the Endless Hunt or Unfettered Anarchy, or the power of nature itself in Thunderous Deluge or Thunderous Tread of the Trees
