Well, Die Erlkönig [if I did that right] is, which can either be translated as Elf King or Alder King (although I was able to google up some Erl Kings, even though I'd never come across that half-translation before).

adj. 1 Surrounding, encircling, encompassing; enveloping.
From Merriam Webster's Tenth:existing or present on all sides: ENCOMPASSING
But yeah, I know what you mean: encompassing seems to imply it's in the foreground, ambient the background.
