Greenwood Labyrinth

While they never produced anything so exalted as the Deeper Well, the Ngavarrā of the old Kingdom of the Garden took pride in something they called the Greenwood. It was the name they chose for the area surrounding the far side of the Verdant Throne, which their green-priests built up into a shifting sea of Breath, which would serve as the foundation of a labyrinth when the Aetherius became the Dreaming .

[...][I]nitial attempts at map-making proved unsuccessful, but success was found in recursion. Though the layout of the Greenwood Labyrinth changes constantly, it changes in regular, predictable ways. The pattern behind its motions has yet to be fully determined, but we are hopeful that we may develop a set of equations [...]

Geography

The myriad parts of the Greenwood Labyrinth shift around and through one another, such that there is no consistent. A handful of locations—a cluster of ponds, a grove of titanic trees, a shady glen, a misty vale, and some others—move around the labyrinth as individual units, and paths weave between them. The logic behind these movements is notoriously difficult to parse, but the pattern can be found through careful analysis.

Fauna & Flora

The flora of the Greenwood is strongly influenced by the Breath of the Verdant Throne, that of Mallat and Pennak, which has primarily influnced the dreamflesh to rebel against them into pant-forms reminiscent of living trees. That being said, there are also a great number which resemble, ferns, grasses, and stemmed plants.
There are no fauna native to the Greenwood.
