The secret oasis is a gleaming pool of pure water, surrounded by a smattering of green shrubbery and palm trees. Exotic insects fly about, and the sparse amounts of local fauna mull around after traveling for miles to drink and rest. The greenery sits in stark contrast to the vast desert surrounding it.
Secret Oasis, Desert
insects
a wise-looking turtle
I am a turtle that lives in a bog. I spend my days leisurely. When the knights stampede through on their horses, I fortunately have a good hiding place.
Has someone else entered the Secret Oasis? Just a few bugs. Not trying to bother anyone. Hmm well what brings you all the way out here? Just trying to learn how to jump....I was never taught as a child. To jump? Well, a turtle like me knows how but can't do it either. Yeah, it was pretty dumb of me to ask you about that, huh. I'm so simple minded. Noo don't be so hard on yourself. You just need to keep trying yourself! I'm surprised you're not trying to eat me. I'm above such worldly things as eating living things. Oh I see. This Oasis is such a wonderful place. So many insects just like me...I feel so at home here! Ah, as you should. Where are you from? Over there. I don't know. I lost my parents at a young age.
