The Room of the Thousand Fountains wasn't far from the lake. He hurried down the wooded trail. Illumination banks overhead created an impression of sunlight streaming through the green leaves. Anakin wished he could enjoy the peace that the Jedi found on these shores.
His Master was sitting on a favorite bench, his eyes closed. No doubt he was meditating or listening to the fountains that were often compared to the delicate chiming of bells.
Without opening his eyes, his Master spoke. "You sounded disturbed."
Anakin sat next to him. Obi-Wan opened his eyes and sent him a penetrating glance. "I've had a vision," Anakin said. "It's come three times, and I need to make sense of it."
"Visions do not always make sense." Obi-Wan swung around to face Anakin. "Tell me about it."
Anakin outlined the vision. It was still so clear in his head that he had no trouble remembering the details.
"The One Below remains below," Obi-Wan murmured.
"Do you know what that means?"
Obi-Wan didn't answer. "Yoda should hear about this."
"Hear about what, I wonder," Yoda called, heading toward them and leaning on his gimer stick. "To find you, I come, Obi-Wan. Expecting a problem, I was not."
Obi-Wan smiled as he rose. "Not a problem. A vision has been troubling Anakin."
"A vision, you say?" Yoda swiveled to fix Anakin with a curious look.
