As the scouting party was seeking shelter from the burning sun they found what they first believed to be a hallucination. Almost like an oasis between the canyons a lake surrounded by grass, fruit bearing trees and filled with fish was hidden from previous exploration attempts. Water gathers from the surrounding cliffs and fills this massive body of water, almost half a mile in diameter. As long as we dont over-fish this should be a sustainable food source for many years to come and the fruit trees will make a fine addition to our diet in the summer.
With our food situation taken care of for the moment the vanara find themselves in a celebratory mood - maybe we can survive in this hostile land after all!
