Ending in a small alcove, the path leads to a small pool of standing water edged in a greenish-brown lichen. The walls are smooth, as though someone carved out this niche to serve a purpose. Just above the pool is a sconce molded to look like a dragon clasping a torch in its talons. The light from the torch reflects off the surface of the pool rather strangely, sending odd patterns of light over the walls.
