You jump in the fountain.
The water is just as cool as the mist felt. The lady sunning herself gets up and screams. She whips around angrily and sees you.
Her white and blue dress has damp marks on it and her feathers are dripping. She shakes like you would expecta bird to shake, feathers first and down her body, throwing glistening azure drops into the air.
She spreads her wings and flies over the garden wall mumbling something about how rude people will never find the magic...and you lose the last of what she was saying.
As you get out of the fountain to dry off, you notice that this walled off area has large trees that give shade to all of the room except the area right by the fountain. The small blue flowers poking out of the grass and the invisible sounds of birds should have left a feeling of peacefulness, but you feel uncomfortable for some reason.
The uncomfortable feeling changes to a deep indescribable dread whenever you walk by the South wall. The more you look at the wall, the more you realize there is a vine-covered door in it. The level of dread increases the second you wonder what's behind the door and the instant you take another step in any direction, an archway appears at the North wall, like a sudden path of escape.
* You run for the Arch!
* You open the door under the vines.
* You climb the nearest tree to get a better look at this maze
