The Peaceful Pond
In the Sun Woods.
Water lilies float on the calm surface of this clear small pond in the shade of ancient trees; occasionally, dainty ripples break the surface as small green frogs with three orange zigzag on their backs jump out to haunt their insect prey. A few dragonflies dart just above the water. Mossy stepping stones lead across the water to a long stone bench, with arcane markings on the supportive legs. The stone bench offers a place to sit whether to daydream or meditate. A large lifelike, moss-covered statuette of a frog, sitting on a large flat boulder, feeds the pond with a steady steam of water from its mouth. Its eyes are large gemstones of moss agate, fancy and valuable (160gp for the pair).
