After these marauding quilt bandits resorted to such barbaric methods of uprooting the roots and soil, it was certain that this once fertile land of herbs would never bear any growth in the times ahead.
/What a lamentable fate for this once-sacred land./
"Hmm, could this be spiritual water?" one of the mercenaries gasped in astonishment.
Upon hearing this, the assembled group abandoned their herb-gathering activities and rushed toward the modest reservoir. Bamboo tubes and various receptacles were produced hastily to collect the water.
A member of the Dai'er Mercenary Group leaned over to taste the water and immediately exclaimed, "Indeed, it's spiritual water!"
/Could it be that this is a source of one of the high-ranking elemental spirits, the spiritual water?/
