They knew what she was becoming.
Some transformations are not gentle. Some are not meant to be witnessed.
She began to change in ways that could not be undone- something deeper, older, harder to contain.
So she was placed inside a gilded box-sealed not to preserve her, but to keep her from finishing.
There are things the garden does not allow to fully emerge.
