The Wylderness occupies the spaces between the king­ doms. Monsters from myth and legend roam its ever-shifting landscape and guard the enchanted places and magnificent treasures the Wylderness hides. The dangers travelers face here are often allegorical. A dragon resting on a pile of gold might represent either the fear or greed of she who encounters it, while a battle with her reflection or shadow might indicate that she must overcome her pride, face her guilt, or make a choice she has already put off for too long. Each trial tests the true measure of a warrior — Garou expect each other to be wise and honorable as well as valorous, and such traits can greatly aid him in facing these perils.
