Gardens of Heaven

The Gardens of Heaven are a special exhibit built for the Emperor. They are made up of several segregated gardens, each separated by a high wall. Each has a different theme, but all are beautiful and majestically sculpted.

Technically, the Gardens of Heaven are off-limits to the non-divine, but the Emperor has been known to open some of the gardens to the public for feast days and festivals. Other sections of the gardens have been made available to artists, so that their beauty might be shared with the commoners, without interrupting the Emperor’s enjoyment. There are sections that have never been seen by anyone other than the Emperor and his closest relatives, and possible retainers.

While most of the gardens are in fact only gardens, there are others that contain resplendent animals such as pegasi, griffons, phoenixes, etc. These gardens are never made available to the commoners for fear of what harm they might cause to the animals.
