Fountain of Youth

Description

Come, brave adventurers, and taste the liquid that promises immortality. The lights beacon me forward and the hints of gold seem to promise so much. The spray of the water refracts and causes purple blooms of pure ecstasy to spray the fountains center, replenishing the stores of the crystal blue water. I lean forward to taste it and suddenly my soul cries out in anguish as a cold and dark presence sears my very soul. Slowly I back away and realize that the rocks I had stepped on earlier were in reality discarded remains abandoned to some cruel predator. I heard a deep growl from behind me and I ran from this perceived paradise hoping that I would be able to escape the cunning trap.

Adapted from because I thought the imagery was magnificent in that fractal. While this is not a continuation of that story, it does have many of the elements of the previous fractal and felt that it deserved an honorable mention since the base was from :icondragonfly113:

Excellent graphic. I'm seeing a figure with outstretched arms between the last section of blue at the top center with what appears to be two lights shining on them from either side below them. As if they were offering the Fountain. Just below the star the light is shining from. Intended or not I find it a great touch.
