THEY BECAME DIFFERENT when they entered different regions of the garden. At first each area seemed the same, but soon they noticed that their emotions and senses were subtly changed as they passed from one region into the next. What before had been only vaguely defined areas because of a creek or hill or animal nest, now became a well-charted system of separate sections, each identified by the way in which they were changed once they stepped inside. In this way the caretaker started to organize their minds for the larger tasks that lay ahead.
