The stone beneath you is polished almost to a perfect shine. There are few imperfections, if any at all, in the stone here. The rock wall forms an overhanging ceiling above you, and you are protected from a straight downfall of water. There is such a downfall of water to your east, but remaining on the path of polished stone will prevent you being dashed to the rocks below which sit in the clear blue spring of water. The path continues to the east and to the south.
