The Waterfall is behind Thousand Year Door. It was a garden of perfect harmony behind thousand year door. The water itself showed miraculous properties healing old scars, restoring dried plants to life, and allowing an Apsara to breathe it like the waters of their homeworld. Ji-yun places the sword beneath the flow of the waterfall and cut the flow of the water perfectly in half. As the water flowed over the sword a poem of unmatchable magnificence wrote itself upon the surface of the water in the ink. I remember only vagaries about it, something about the common working man and the joy of being a craftsman working the forge. He signed the poem with his name but it was a part of the poem as well. It was too beautiful to remain in the minds of a mortal men. Up until that point I had no idea writing could do that. The garden itself was in a groove of cherry trees that rained blossoms down upon us. Everything taken from the garden turned to Cherry Blossoms when we traveled back through the door.
Tan Heng when asked stated that this was a legendary place within the empire and much sought after and speculated about. He said that it was thought to be the birth place of the philosopher.
Ji-yun, Tan Heng, or Wei would be the best ones to write about the experience as I don’t feel anyone not from the empire could truly do the place or the experience justice.
