Granted takes place in two main settings: the fairy world of the Haven and the city of Kettering, Ohio. These very different natures of these places cause conflicts in the story. The Haven is home for about 1,000 fairies who live with nature, dwelling and working in trees. They have Whisperers who talk to trees, making them change shapes for the fairies. The Haven is a safe and secure place with strict rules that guarantee that everyone can live comfortably and safely.
On the other hand, the human world, represented by Kettering, Ohio, is a challenge for Ophelia. It feels crowded and scary to her; the big buildings make her think fairies do not belong there since she is used to living and working in trees. However, as Ophelia spends more time in the human world, she feels gradually more comfortable in it. When she visits the Morales family’s home, it reminds her of the Haven since it is cozy and warm.
The different settings in Granted are not just backgrounds; they help the characters grow and explore themes like fitting in, changing, and mixing magical and human experiences.
