Dream under the stars
Rest beneath the forest canopy, wake renewed by dawn.
The world may call me “wicked,” but at home I am simply myself. This retreat is my refuge, hidden away in the forest where branches shield secrets and poppies bloom defiantly. In this forest hideaway, shadows soften, stories linger, and strength takes root. For one night, I invite you into my haven—where you’ll trade courage over tea, weave a keepsake broom, and rest under a canopy of Ozian stars.
What you’ll do
Step into my home, a sanctuary tucked deep in the Ozian forest. Here, the branches hold the walls, poppies brighten the shadows, and the air itself hums with magic. My home is my haven, a place of belonging for me and my guests. Wander, discover, and retreat into the tranquility of this space in my absence.
• The trees of the forest will welcome you as you arrive and step into my sanctuary—where the world falls quiet and the real magic begins.
• Your evening begins around the fire, where a tea sommelier guides a tasting of blends drawn from the forest—herbs, flowers, and leaves steeped with story and whispers of the land.
• Make yourself at home and relive my story through the items of my past. You'll find the Grimmerie open to a half-finished spell, my hat resting where the light catches it, and the broom that carried me through it all.
• As twilight deepens, you’ll craft a broom of your own with the help of floral artists. Moss, willow, and poppies twine together beneath your hands. It may not carry you across the skies, but it carries the memory of your night here.
• Afterward, you’ll gather for a quiet meal inspired by the forest itself. Each bite is a reminder to slow down, take root, and savor the calm.
• As night falls, you’ll rest beneath the forest canopy, let the stars keep watch, and wake to dawn in a space that is equal parts refuge and magic. By morning, what once felt wicked will feel like home.

Meet your host
Where I went to school: Shiz University
My work: Fight for justice
I spend too much time: I don’t waste time. Each moment matters
My biography title: “Wicked,” of course
Pets: A loyal flying monkey, Chistery
My name is Elphaba—daughter of a governor, protective older sister of Nessarose, loyal friend. At Shiz University, I found both magic and loneliness, and in Glinda, a friend who saw beyond my skin. I fought for justice, for the Animals without voices, for a world that feared change. They call me “wicked,” but I know better. My story is about conviction, compassion, transformation, and the courage to be seen as I am. For better. For worse. For good.
