Part 1[edit]
---Outer Gate number 7759175, [Great Waterfall of Underwood], Fir Bolg Hill[1].
“Wa~!”
“Ah~!”
*Shish~* Asuka and Yō couldn’t help but let out gasps of surprise as the cool breeze blew into the hillside that they stood upon.
On one hand, they were surprised by the amount of moisture in the breeze, while on the other, the sight of the scenery before them stole their breaths away.
“My…….It’s beautiful! Why is there such a gigantic Water Tree!”
After walking out of the Outer Gate that stood upon the mound, Yō and the others had immediately gone to observe the sight that stretched from the foot of the mound. An underground city covered by a web like pattern of Tree roots and a floating stage that had cool water sprays dancing in the air were just a part of the view that greeted their eyes.
Even from such a distance away, one could also identify the Tritonis Waterfall that had its source flowing from under the Gigantic Water Tree. Water that cascaded down from the many sturdy looking branches seemed like miniature waterfalls from the Great Water Tree.
This was a tree that could produce water. The [No Name]’s water tree was a little sapling from this parent tree.
“Asuka! Look over there! Just a short distance down from the flow that leads to the waterfall from the Water tree! There’s a canal constructed out of crystal!”
Yō tugged at Asuka’s sleeve while exclaiming in a voice that seemed more excited than ever before in her whole life.
The water that poured out of the gigantic water Tree cascaded pass its lower branches to fall into the city below. Following the crystal decorated canals constructed under those spots, the fierce and lively flow would then travel to the various interiors of the city. The sprawling roots of the Great Tree also extended outwards, seemingly with the will to cover the entire Underground City. The canals that were constructed on the fissures that ran through the ground due to the root action were reinforced with greenish crystals.
The giant Water Tree as well as the Underground City constructed by the excavation of the river bank.
The combination of the two regions was what people generally called [Underwood].
