Harvest Moon (2010)
“Birds, multicolored and with exquisite voices, sang in every tree. Flowers of every sort bloomed and breathed delicate perfumes into a balmy breeze that wandered through the glossy green foliage.

Troublesome creatures were not permitted here. When a goddess makes that sort of decision, you can be sure She Will... Be Obeyed.
Now and again a dramatic thunderstorm would roar through the mountains, reminding everyone—everyone not a god, that is—that Nature was not to be trifled with.
