Queen's Gardens

"Have you heard of Hallownest's Queen? Apparently these gardens were once her retreat... Now some vicious types are crawling all over the place and the plants have grown wild..."

- Cornifer

The Queen's Gardens is a lush area featuring ornate gates, thorns, and perilous platforms located in the west part of Hallownest.

Description The Gardens are filled with overgrown vegetation, thorny vines, and neglected greenhouses. Lanterns with Lumaflies light up the area. Besides the Hallownest structures and flowering plants, tents have cropped up in the Gardens, housing the Mantis Traitors. The south-east part of the Gardens contains a corpse holding the Love Key. Below this area is the Moss Chapel where the Moss Prophet preaches. In the central part of the Queen's Gardens is a Stag Station, which can be opened by going above and around this room. Along the way, the Warrior Dream Marmu can be found.

Further north is a greenhouse where the Traitor Lord is fought. The White Lady is located west of this area, alongside the corpse of Dryya. After the Traitor Lord's defeat, she grants a White Fragment, half of the Kingsoul Charm. The grave of the Traitor Lord's daughter is located above the Stag Station. This room is important for the Delicate Flower quest.

Lore The Queen's Gardens used to belong to Unn and her Mosskin Tribe. At some point this area was annexed by the White Lady, who turned it into her well-guarded retreat. After the White Lady bound herself in her chamber in the Gardens and the Infection returned, the Gardens grew wild and became overgrown.

When the Mantis Traitors were exiled from their village in the Fungal Wastes, they eventually settled in the Queen's Gardens. They now consider the gardens to be their lands.

How to access There are initially three ways to enter the Queen's Gardens: two from Fog Canyon and one from Deepnest. The first entrance is below the Overgrown Mound, requiring the Shade Cloak to bypass a Shade Gate. The lower entrance requires crossing under a wall of vines with either Isma's Tear or a very well-timed Super Dash. The third entrance is in a hidden area immediately outside Mask Maker's room. Using it requires breaking a plank in the northwest corner of the room by either using the Monarch Wings or Nail-bouncing off a Little Weaver.
