We are getting deep into spoiler season now. This marks the 8th week in a row I've been revealing little tidbits here and there. That's quite amazing to me. Yet, we still have a long way to go.
At this point, all of the roses have been revealed. Last week's was my favorite for this book. The Librarian is among my favorite characters in this series. I look forward to giving her more screentime (pagetime?) here in the future.
For now, though, we're going to be moving away from characters and toward locations. This week's reveal is an illustration of a location I've already discussed. If you remember, back in March I made a post about "The Fount of Many Hands." It's an enchanted place, created by evil magic. Dwarves often use it in their machinations.
The fountain plays an important role in this phase in the story. It's not a large role, and I don't feature it for long, yet it explains so much.
This is your last chance to turn back before any spoilers. Fair warning!

The curious thing about the fountain is why the ancient sculptor - whoever it was - chose hands as the dominating motif. Why hands? You'll have to read the story to find out.
Also, I will reveal this as well: that's not water coming from the spout at the top. It's something else, something a character from Book 1 desired greatly. I can't wait for you to read who it was.
Anyway, that's all for this week! I hope you enjoyed the revelation. If you enjoyed the Door from two weeks ago, you're going to love next week's reveal. Hope to see you then!
Peace,
