As mentioned above, the Beast and company try their hand at invading the Rose Queen's garden realm, trying to defeat her or, at the very least, rescue a few changelings (and a certain warlock) that have been imprisoned. Their entry point is a dead-end flower-filled alleyway behind a florist shop rather than the more commonly known entrance. Basically, Childermass is letting them into the realm the "back way".

While they do manage to pull off a rescue mission, they take heavy injury and ultimately lose, even with the Beast probably turning into a cool dragon or something (who even knows). Enemies include loyal changelings, summoned elementals, and vines that would like to crush you.

Their point of exit (unless individuals leave their own routes somehow) will be through Portland's rose garden, as it's the closest and quickest out. Upon exiting, they will be met with a massive flock of corvids (crows, ravens, jays, jackdaws, etc), so many swooping down through their group that it will be monetarily blinding. Once they pass, the group will find one of their less-than-friendly feathered guide missing from amongst them.

[ THIS IS A CATCH-ALL FOR GARDEN ATTACK THREADS (also basically just a recap of what's already written above).

Feel free to thread out any portion of the attack or NPC antagonists here if you'd like. ]
