"Are we there yet?" Anna would ask, slowly approaching the Fountain with the others. "For Christ's sakes, YES. Now, could you please stop asking?! Honestly, how were you the leader?" responded Lance. "Guys, shut up. Look over there." Matt interrupted their bickering, and pointed his finger towards the entrance of this...location. The group of 4 had been traveling for quite some time now, but nothing was as lengthy as the road to here. "Oh, finally... Hope there's like an inn here..." Natalie would sigh in relief, feeling exhausted. As they all entered, they looked all around them; a bustling city, multiple citizens of different kinds, and dead in the center was a fountain. This fountain appeared to be incredibly pure, as they looked towards the water. No filth, no objects deep in the water; it was almost unreal. In fact, it even looked drinkable... "Water!" Matt panted loudly, as he dunked his head into the fountain. "Matt, you look idiotic as of now." Lance remarked at the swordsman's actions. "At least, the others aren't as barbaric as you, wouldn't you all sa-" Before Lance could finish, Natalie was already washing her face with the fountain water and Anna was just observing the structure and contents of this fountain, unaware that someone could be watching them nearby.
After many minutes of almost everyone messing around with the fountain, Matt finally pulled his head up. His Captain's Hat and his hair completely drenched, alongside with a portion of his clothes. Natalie stopped and dried herself off with a bit of wind magic, and Anna just kept inspecting the fountain. "Ahh... That was refreshing..." the magician comented. "Hmmm... Judging by the looks of this, this fountain seems to be very important. Like, the 'if-this-didn't-exist-we-would-be-endlessly-screwed' type of important. I mean, why else would this structure be very pure and clean and..." Anna would continue on explaining the reasons behind the fountain, in a rather boring fashion. So boring, in fact, that Matt fell asleep, soon to be shaken awake by Natalie. As soon as she finished, Lance would approach them, stating "Well, now what do we do? Wait for someone to introduce us to this area?" Matt groaned. "Why do we have to wait...?! Can't we just beat up some more monsters, get some more skills, EXP, and..." "Because we don't even know anything about this place. So we're staying right here." Natalie interrupted, sitting against the base of the fountain.
