Gardens of the Eternal Fountain

The ocean is full of mysteries, wonders and creatures who’d really like to introduce their teeth to bits of you that you’d rather not have teeth in. But it’s also home to more mundane mysteries too - like, have you ever wondered where all the water in the ocean comes from?

Me neither, but shut up, I’m going somewhere with this. All that water though! How did it get here? Sure you could use science to explain how these oceans formed billions years ago. Or! You could take a dip in Mig’s Eternal Fountain and see for yourself.

“During construction,” Mig tells me, “I thought of this story where humanity finds an endlessly flowing fountain atop a mountain, [which] produces the water present in every ocean, lake and river. So, people turned it into a shrine, carving out the mountain to form the gardens, with the fountain at the very top.”

A magical fountain from which all the waters of the world spring. Sounds like something you’d read about in a book on mythology. But as Mig explains, truth is always cooler than fiction.

“Overall, this was an experiment, the outcomes of which I can take and use on future builds. Ultimately, if I can take anything away from this and learn and improve, it’s worth it. Everything else is just extra, the icing on the cake.”

Mig, just because you don’t see how awesome and impressive and amazing your work is, doesn’t mean others won’t!
