'I heard that you are a wise spirit who knows very much about the world in its entirety. Can you answer a question from me? After that, we will go.' Elysia didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the main reason why she came there.
'I might answer your question if you made an offering to the lake. Something of value and that is a solid object.' The water spirit thought for a moment and offered a deal.
'I will give the offering after you answer my question.' Elysia bargained as she didn't want to join the other party's game.
'Fine, I know almost everything after living thousands of years in the waters of this continent before settling in peace in this lake. Water has a memory. I doubt there is anything I don't know when it comes to the affairs of this mortal world.' The water spirit snorted and folded his arms. She waited for the question inside the lake as she didn't want to reveal herself.
