Falling in, not a soul. It’s possible to touch it and survive, but I wouldn’t suggest it.

@Techspert

Hm. I wasn’t gonna give the idea I was gonna try it, just wondering.
*mumbles*
Rhoan would be dumb enough to try though.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

It is. Almost hypnotizing, isn’t it? If you look closely, you can see everything there ever was.

@Techspert

Yeah, I am seeing that…
*peers into*
Has anyone survived the river?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

I... thank you?
*Sits cross-legged at the bank of the river for several minutes before I speak again*
Now I want you to lock yourself as close to the waters as you can muster. Be careful, your boat of safety will drift unexpectedly in the waters of time.

@Techspert

*goes down into the push up and stares into the waters as I hold it*
This water is almost beautiful just to watch, if I’m gonna be honest. Never seen anything like it.

Then become so great a master that the next generation longs to walk alongside your footsteps.

@Techspert

That is the least cryptic yet very inspiring thing you have said.
*begins to do the push-ups more intensely, staring into the water*

Whatever brings you closest to the essence of time. My master walked the way of the sands, and I found that they also suited me quite well.

@Techspert

What if I find my own way?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

*Catches a glimpse of the wavering blue-white streamers dancing in the river, briefly captivating my attention*
...Yes, you need to be close enough to know it, but not close enough to consume you.
*Looks up at you*
Perhaps you’ll even develop a discipleship of fire. Either way, you’re doing well.

@Techspert

Fire huh?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Physically, it requires increased self-control. But more importantly, that water is the essence of time. My hope is that you’ll build a connection to it.

@Techspert

*while still doing push ups*
Hm, this id definitely a way to push it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Go ahead.

@Techspert

What does the significance of getting close to the water do?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

That'll be our warmup. Good luck.

@Techspert

*sets myself up and begins to do push ups*
If I may ask…

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Nothing you haven't seen before. But I want you to get as close as you can to the water without touching it. I don't usually start here, but you have more than enough physical prowess to bat with already.

@Techspert

Push-Ups as close to water, got it.
