When something of value is brought to the Wisher’s Well, the magic of the masonry will see to it that the gift ends up where it needs to go. Often, that means it will need to pass through the water and be teleported elsewhere, to other cities where it might be delivered to the person who needs it most.
Fortune’s Fountain in Harara, the unsleeping desert oasis, is one such place. The fountain has a habit of spitting up what certain passersby need most in the world. Few people know why this happens, but it’s become something of an urban legend. Locals believe that giving something back to the fountain is good luck and an excellent gamble.
Their belief imbues the fountain with power and makes dreams come true. Leaving a gift in the water provides a bit of extra luck for the day, and usually turns up a rare celestial shard.
