More on Broceliande forest

It is indeed in that forest, inextricably mingled with the mystical sea-spiritual distance, that all these places of margel must lie. It is, after all, one of the great forests of myth – greater because of its hidden mysteries than Arden or Birnam or Westermain. The wood of Comus may be compared with it; and indeed it is poetically a part of it, except that itis a holy place and uninhabited by such sorcerers. A nobler comparison is with the forsest which Dante found at the foot of the Mount of Purgatory and where he came again to himself, or that other on the height o the Mount where Beatrice came again to him. But it is not proper to do more than shyly observe comparisons between such myths. It is a place of making and of all the figures concerned with making.

-Charles Williams, The Figure of Arthur, p.82

But Broceliande is really more than any of these. It is THE place of making.
