"Did you eventually find that lake?"
Shard asked, as Professor Drake flipped through the red album and nodded gently:
"Yes, in fact, that lake is called 'Sage's Lake,' or 'Lake Cherub.' The famous fairy tale 'Water of the Sage' is actually adapted from the legends here, or at least related to them. But young man, I can't provide you with more details. Look at my legs, I only remember finding the way to that lake and sneaking off to find it. When I was found again, I was already in this condition."
Shard frowned slightly:
"You don't remember anything?"
"Yes, I don't remember anything. I have no idea what happened, I'm not even sure if I really found the goddess, but something strange definitely happened back then."
The professor sighed deeply:
"You can have someone copy my research materials. I just hope, Mr. Watson, if you really find that 'Lake Goddess,' could you ask her what wish I made back then?"
"Is it that important? I thought you had already let it go."
