The highest good is like water: unblocked, it becomes a river; dammed, it becomes a pool; risen into clouds, it falls as rain; sunk into the earth, it moistens the soil. The waters and soil of Jiangnan are rich and fertile, nurturing all kinds of life; every plant, insect, and fish that dwells in its waters is changed over the years, each attaining its own spirit.\nThe Spring Lord Golden Dorsal is gilded in hue and shaped like a small dragon. It favors clear springs, shuns fouled water, and vanishes the instant anyone comes near. Once, it appeared in answer to prayers for rain, and the villagers have honored it ever since as the dragon's child of the spring, an auspicious omen, and given it the title of Spring Lord.
