Under the blessed boughs of Heaven’s Viridian Forest do the Powers of the Light find restoration and ease. It is a place of peace and beauty where the eternal music of songbirds fills the branches of every species of tree that can be found throughout the Multiverse; where the woodland animals of every world scamper among the trunks and roots; where fauns and dryads play around chuckling brooks and deep green pools.
The spirits of all the living things of all the forests of Creation find their way here in time. And those whose wounds – whether physical or spiritual – are the greatest, find (or perhaps are found by) the centre of the Viridian Forest, the Sucratissimus Lucus. The entrance to that most sacred of groves is marked by a chestnut staff, around which is entwined a green-scaled serpent.
Within the grove, surrounded by the most ancient and wisest of trees can be found Sandalphon the healer. His skin is olive, his eyes blue, his wings black and copper. To enter his presence is to feel immediate calm and rest. His hands heal the wounds of the Worlds and his words heal the pains of the Spirit. Yet even Sandalphon bears a blade - a reminder that the forces of the Dark are a constant threat, even in this most blessed place.
