• 1986 Barbara Vine ( =Ruth Rendell): A Dark-Adapted Eye: page 35:

  We call Edith Eden now because that is what she called herself before she could pronounce 'th'. It is rather a lovely name, I think. Edith sounds like someone's old aunt. I can't think why Mother and Father chose it.

From BibleWiki

Meaning: delight.

1. The garden in which our first parents dewlt (Gen 2:8-17). No geographical question has been so much discussed as that bearing on its site. It has been placed in Armenia, in the region west of the Caspian Sea, in Media, near Damascus, in Palestine, in Southern Arabia, and in Babylonia. The site must undoubtedly be sought for somewhere along the course of the great streams the Tigris and the Euphrates of Western Asia, in "the land of Shinar" or Babylonia. The region from about lat. 33 degrees 30' to lat. 31 degrees, which is a very rich and fertile tract, has been by the most competent authorities agreed on as the probable site of Eden. "It is a region where streams abound, where they divide and re-unite, where alone in the Mesopotamian tract can be found the phenomenon of a single river parting into four arms, each of which is or has been a river of consequence."

Among almost all nations there are traditions of the primitive innocence of our race in the garden of Eden. This was the "golden age" to which the Greeks looked back. Men then lived a "life free from care, and without labour and sorrow. Old age was unknown; the body never lost its vigour; existence was a perpetual feast without a taint of evil. The earth brought forth spontaneously all things that were good in profuse abundance."

1. One of the markets whence the merchants of Tyre obtained richly embroidered stuffs (Ezek 27:23); the same, probably, as that mentioned in 2Kg 19:12, and Isa 37:12, as the name of a region conquered by the Assyrians.
2. Son of Joah, and one of the Levites who assisted in reforming the public worship of the sanctuary in the time of Hezekiah (2Chr 29:12).

Overview

Woodvale is a neighborhood hit by two disasters: the Rikti and the Devouring Earth. Originally known for its parks and playgrounds, Woodvale was one of the areas destroyed in the Rikti War. Although Synapse personally used his speed to save hundreds of citizens, the damage couldn't be prevented. And after the war, it couldn't be fixed, either. The Devouring Earth had taken the opportunity to move in and claim the area as their own; to the immediate west lies their place of origin, The Hive. Large portions of the zone have been turned into forest and massive upshoots of rock. The spirit of the Woodsman still watches over this zone, to try and stop their corruption of nature.

Crey is also commonly seen in this zone, either to reclaim their lost facilities, or to study the Devouring Earth creatures. Nemesis has a strong presence as well for less clear reasons, although with Nemesis you can be sure there's a devious plot behind it.
