Lake Celi

“I was gratified to be able to answer promptly, 'and I did. I said I didn’t know.”'



Near the east coast of the Huiran continent is a lake which holds a spirit of knowledge. The spirit is almost sentient and can learn, however has no morality. She will answer any question with absolute truth no matter what it is. If she does not know the answer she will say so. There are few things she does not know, and in those cases will likely never know - for example, how to kill or destroy her, she will never find this out.

The spirit of Lake Celi is near sentient, and as such has an understanding of what is meant in a question. Unlike the Loko she will answer the question you ask rather than the words you utter. Specific questions will receive better answers than vague ones however, so attempting to gain further knowledge by widening the question will just gain vaguer answers. This is to the point that openly philological questions will receive equally useless answers. E.g "What is Life?" if meant in a literal sense will get a literal answer, though if meant as a philosophy question will likely be answered like "It is all you know" so while true, is useless.

The spirit is the accumulated knowledge of all on Lume and so will answer any question posed by any-more no matter what or who it is. What she answers is absolute truth. If she doesn't know, she will say so.

Creatures of near sentients will become sentient if they drink and bathe in the waters.
