The Immortal Garden

Craft a story about an immortal gardener tending to a bewitched garden at an abandoned cathedral.

The gardener’s choice of plants, supernatural phenomena occurring in the garden, and the gardener’s history and conversations with the plants could be important plot elements. Why has the gardener chosen immortality, and what price have they paid? This prompt delves into themes of eternal life, solitude, one’s relationship with nature, and occult magic.
