As you walk up to the pool, you see a crystalline chalice appear at its edge.
After a moment's hesitation, you take the chalice and, filling it with water from the pool, drink.
The water is cool and refreshing. After a moment, you look around, and see what you saw before, but more. The robed men seem to shine, and, after a little while, you look, and see that the shining is brighter than the light you have grown to see; it is the shining of virtue. In one man, you see love, in the next joy, in the next honor, in the next wisdom, in the next humility. This radiant beauty continues to shine, then, after a while, it is time to leave.
