The degree of perception and recognition was different, while Night and the others considered the Forest of Silence a middle ground to cross or the territory of a friend and a future potential territory. The others considered it a deadly zone, a place that should be avoided. It wasn't only the players, the NPC civilians as well as common soldiers avoided the Forest.
This fact was fully taken advantage of by the followers of Artemis, more specifically, Pope Moonstar. Nobody would know what was actually going on, anything that happened in the forest was blamed on the Guardian, even the summoning of a beast. The general public of Genesis didn't know how Shade looked, especially in his other form.
