Well, here's more of the card you referenced, and it seems to refute the belief further that the Traveler is the Gardener: [spoiler][quote]"The Traveler moved across the iron world. It opened the earth and stitched shut the sky. It made life possible... [u]This is not the beginning but it is the reason.[/u] The Ghost[rose] said, you are a dead thing made by a dead power in the shape of the dead. All you will ever do is kill. The Traveler is life, I said. You are a creature of Darkness. You seek to deceive me. But I looked behind me, down the long slope where the blossoms tumbled in the warm wind and the great trees wept sap like blood or wine, and I felt doubt." [/quote][/spoiler]
