*The radio on your ear begins to freak out much more frequently now as you approach closing distance to the water*

@Crew

*Flicks at it as I overlook the pools*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*Sure enough, as you get closer and approach the end of the drivable road near the water’s edge, countless people can be seen turned face down in the springs, entirely unmoving*

@Crew

*Pauses to scribble in my notes "does not sustain life in inhospitable conditions or revive from the dead" and approaches the springs*

*The air shimmers more intensely as though there were a heat wave present, though there clearly isn’t. Not terribly long into your drive, the cars stop at the end of the road where it seems people were swarming to get to the pools, and the calm expanse of what seems like entire lakes of vibrant, glowing pink water comes into view, though the water itself is filled with specks of sorts that aren’t discernible from here*

@Crew

*Grimaces when I notice the specs*
Awww man...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*The lightning flashes nearby and thunder crackles, almost in a sort of explosive cosmic retort to your pride*

@Crew

*Mutters to myself*
Maybe the healing lightning above the healing lake will heal this car if it comes to that.

*You manage to pull the car back on track after something under the hood lets out a lout clang, but nothing else gives you problems right away*

@Crew

We'll take it!
*Drives up the road, sporting a grin*

*The car jolts and lands with a huge thud, taking the landing well but seemingly not handling the inertia so well, skidding as it struggles to regain traction*

@Crew

C'mon, make iiiiit!
*Twists the wheel with the car's direction and lets go of the accelerator but doesn't hit the brake*

*Upon returning to the proper exit, you can see that not far down the exit, the road seems to be backed up to a stop with traffic, and the cars long since abandoned*

@Crew

*Grins*
Alright Rea, hope this bucket of bolts holds up.
*Slams the accelerator and bolts toward a piece of relatively solid-looking scrap leaning against the median*

*The air itself seems to shimmer as you approach a sign that says the Seers' Pools are off the next exit*

@Crew

*Blazes past the sign, and notices a few minutes later*
Wha—Oh, whoops.
*Stops the car, does a k-turn, and drives the opposite direction on the highway*

*As the sun sets and night rolls in, lightning storms begin to settle in, albeit without any sort of clouds to source from. The strikes are also a characteristic pink hue, betraying its properties and making it clear how these are no ordinary storms*

@Crew

*Holds my hands behind my head and keeps the wheel strait with my leg while I look at the stars and rest*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*The colorful aurora in the sky becomes more vibrant and slightly more visibly varied as you draw closer to your destination*

@Crew

*Takes the opportunity to lean my seat all the way back and throw my bag on the accelerator*
