“ In the middle of a desert in an oasis is a single prospering oak tree. Near the tree is a large pool of water.

Some search for it still.”

“ In a small farming community, the only way to cross a river is to basically pole vault across. A small section of river has a small raft on a string to pull items across but for a person to cross they must use one of the many provided poles.
