Pan stumbled upon the pool almost entirely by accident.  It was a day which began like many others.  He’d woken in the Dusk Court, having slept in the swamp, collecting herbs and various swabs of mud to use in crafting potions.  Nevermind that the amateur healer wasn’t very good at making healing salves… it was simply something he fancied to try.  As he woke with bits of sticks and leaves caught in his mane, he’d yawned before trying to find a place to bathe away the last remnants of sleep from his eyes… so he found himself weaving back toward the sea where Oriens had granted him a shell… but in spectacular Pan fashion, he’d been distracted along the way by the inviting waves of grass along the plain.  After all, a boy’s got to eat…

Only once he’d had his fill does Pan turn to find the sea again, but this time, the adventurer found himself lost.  All the grass just started to look the same, so he’d paced in each direction a bit, trying to find a path out of the fields.  Instead, he’d found the pool.  Drawn toward it in a trancelike state, Pan found himself wanting nothing more than to drink the water by some strange impulse.  He was sure that he’d never felt so thirsty in his life, and as he opened his mouth to draw in a breath, he could swear that all moisture was drawn from it.

Water. the boy croaked, stepping forward by some compulsion toward the golden pool, eyes glazed over as the trance consumes him.  And when his lips touch the water’s surface, they burn at the touch.  Still, he must drink the water… there is no other option, and he sucks it into his mouth with a voracity that begged for respite.  It didn’t sooth his thirst, so the boy drinks more and more, until finally he can tear himself away from the liquid’s pull, breathless and sapped for energy as he collapses beside the pool.  And there they would find the unconscious boy – not permanently scarred by the ordeal, but drawn into a magical stupor by its strange and mysterious power.
