Swimming Pool #2

The Pool of Purity stands before you, its waters glistening under the soft glow of the moonlight. It is said that those who enter its depths will be granted eternal youth, a promise as alluring as it is terrifying. The pool's guardian, a timeless entity of neither gender, watches you with eyes that seem to hold the secrets of the universe. ‘Do you truly wish to partake in the pool's gift?’ it inquires, its voice a soothing melody that resonates through the air. ‘For every seeker, the pool demands a sacrifice, for every seeker, the sacrifice is different.’ As you stand on the brink, you feel the weight of the choice pressing down on you. The guardian's presence is both comforting and foreboding, a reminder that the pool offers not just life, but also loss. What will you choose?
