==History== Greenthumb Gardens is famous for its herb garden. Burdock is the current owner of the herb garden and is the richest man in town. He has many gardeners to tend it, including [[Carraway]], who works for him as a servant. He lives in a servant's quarters next to the garden with his father and brother. Burdock has a son, [[Dill]], who is soon to be married to [[Lavender]]. Lavender's father has accumulated debt to Burdock and so she works as a servant to Burdock. However, Dill falls in love with Linda. Marrying Dill would erase Lavender's debt. And so, they are to be married. However, Lavender is actually in love with Carraway, who spurns her advances. This makes Dill jealous. To add to this love triangle, one of the maids, [[Cayenne]], is in love with Dill. She is jealous of Lavender and tries to convince Dill that Lavender is being unfaithful to him. Sometime before the people turn to stone, Klemens and Felix, former residents of [[Regenstein]], warn the populace of the Grey Rain. Soon after, Greenthumb Gardens is struck by the Grey Rain, much like Regenstein. This is caused by the [[Rainiac]]. The Rainiac turns everyone to stone. Carraway and Lavender were outside before the rain struck. When Carraway realized that the rain was turning everyone into stone, he covered Lavender with his body to protect her from the rain. However, they both turn to stone along with the rest of Greenthumb Gardens' residents. ===Past=== The {{Hero 7}} and {{Party 7}} enters Greenthumb Gardens to see its people turned to stone. They find the cause of the Grey Rain, Rainiac, and battle him. After defeating the monster, the party uses the angel's tears from the top of Burdock's house and restores the people back to normal. However, Carraway, due to his overexposure to the rain, doesn't recover right away. His body is still stiff and he doesn't respond to anything. Lavender is horrified that Carraway, who previously had disregarded her feelings for him would try to protect her from the rain. Dill is jealous that Lavender is still spending more time with Carraway, even though he is ill. The {{Party 7}} travels to [[Emberdale]] in the past to talk to Palmela. After telling her Carraway's symptoms, she is able to concoct the prescription to cure him. They return to Greenthumb Gardens with the medicine in hand. They feed it to Carraway who recovers from the effects of the Grey Rain. Everyone is excited about Carraway's recovery. To this end, Burdock holds a feast to celebrate Carraway's recovery and announce the engagement of Dill and Lavender. But Carraway is nowhere to be found. Burdock ask the {{Party 7}} to look for him. Cayenne tries to advance on Dill and kisses him. Dill refuses to kiss back. She then tells him that what they are doing now is what Lavender and Carraway are doing as well. Dill refuses to believe her and storms out. Cayenne is seen trying to convince Carraway to elope with Lavender so that she can have Dill all to himself. However, Carraway tells her that if he leaves with Linda, his father and brother would suffer under Burdock. He leaves her after this conversation. Burdock starts to make his announcements. However, rain begins to fall. Fearing that it is the Grey Rain, the people return to their homes. Carraway and Lavender have a conversation in the rain. Lavender tries to convince Carraway to run away with her, but he refuses, not wanting to cause trouble for her or his family. Lavender becomes angry and tells him that when she marries Dill, she will work him to the bone. All Carraway says in response is that she should go back inside before she catches cold. She yells at him, telling him that she never wants to see Carraway again. Carraway decides to leave Greenthumb Gardens. When the {{Party 7}} tries to convince him that Burdock is a fair man and that running away would be cowardly, he responds that this is all true and that he should have done this a long time ago. But he says that it is too late for him. He leaves without a word to anybody. The next morning, the {{Party 7}} relays this message to his father, who thanks the {{Party 7}} for telling him. Lavender, after learning about Carraway's departure, is depressed. Her tactics were actually geared towards making him elope with her. But they had the opposite effect. Dill is upset that Lavender still cares about Carraway even though he left her. Cayenne is mad at Carraway for not taking Lavender along with him. The {{Party 7}} leaves Greenthumb Gardens with this resolution. ===Interim=== Dill and Lavender eventually marry and have a son, who Lavender named Carrington. Burdock eventually passes away, and his manor, fortune and herb garden all pass to Dill. Despite his wealth and status, Dill increasingly succumbs to his jealousy towards Carraway, and frequents the saloon, spending his money and getting drunk. He soon starts to take his jealousy out on Lavender, abusing her to the point that she leaves him and her son and travels east to Wilted Heart where she joins a nunnery. Ultimately Dill loses his entire fortune after multiple ill-conceived schemes to increase the profitability of the herb garden. As a result a man named Dan D. Lion buys the manor and garden from him, with Dill being reduced to a worker in the garden. Carrington, fortunately, grows up to be responsible like Lavender, but reproachful of his dad's laziness, and often ends up doing most of his job for him as Dill slacks off. Meanwhile, Cayenne marries Dan D. Lion and becomes lady of the house. Ever the conniving schemer, however, she has taken to poisoning her husband to the point that he's rendered withered and bedridden.
