Map 236 - Chromatic Shrine - Dungeon

# Background Lore

The Chromatic Shrine is a fabled location within the Ardennian Kingdom. Not many know of its existence because it appears to have no origin or purpose. It is located next to the northeastern border of the kingdom, about three hours north of Dracotia. The shrine consists of a large door on the face of a large rock outcropping and a fountain (not in the illustration).

The fountain features the statue of an androgynous person holding a jar and pouring water on a shallow stone basin. The water pours steadily and it never stops. Despite the limited size of the jar, a magical aura keeps the water coming out. The basin constantly overflows and drips into the immediate forest floor around it. Under sunlight, however, the water reveals a strange quality. It shines in several different colors, five to be exact. The visual effect is similar to that of combustible oil mixed with water but restricted to five colors only. Despite this phenomenon, the water has no chemical traits, nor is it toxic if drank.
