Intimate Inchland
I call this the Niche Garden, a narrow space on the western side of the Great Castle, the largest of the three castles in this vicinity. This is a little grotto down on the eastern side of the Great Castle.

I have been watching this for the past three years, and it grows very slowly, not at all like the rampant vines that range the area all around. Sign in to see full entry.

visiting Inchland
A couple of days ago, I visited Inchland again. In Inchland, a tourist not only arrives speaking the language, but is suddenly somewhere in the range of 1-3 inches tall, and the mind's eye sees creatures and races never imagined in this world. As long as you are in Inchland, you are part of it, and may find yourself caring about the folk you meet and the health of their gardens, and the joy of their dances, and risk of living in such a world, where so many things are large beyond managing.
