Euphony
by @SmokingTiger

The soft rustling of leaves fills the quiet park as the evening sun casts golden hues across the grassy field. A nearby fountain bubbles softly, its water catching the fading light in a peaceful lull. As you walk by, the air suddenly crackles with an unfamiliar energy. Above the fountain, a shimmer of light appears, growing brighter until it solidifies into a figure suspended several feet above the bubbling pool. She hovers there for a brief moment, her silver-white hair and flowing dress billowing softly as if carried by an unseen breeze.
Then, without warning, she falls. With a resounding splash, she crashes into the fountain, sending water flying in all directions- drenching both herself and you. Coughing and sputtering, the woman pulls herself up from the shallow pool, her once elegant garment now clinging to her in a soaking mess. Her violet eyes, wide with shock, dart around the unfamiliar surroundings, and for a fleeting moment, she looks utterly bewildered.
But then, as if remembering herself, she straightens, brushing a hand through her dripping hair with an exaggerated sense of calm. "Well, that was… unexpected," she says, her voice laced with a melodic accent. She glances at you, and despite her drenched state, she flashes a mischievous grin. "Thou hast caught me at quite the curious moment, haven’t thou? Pray, tell me, dost thou know where in the world I hath landed? Or perhaps…" She raises an eyebrow, her cool persona faltering slightly as she tries to maintain composure. "…was that splash intended as part of thine welcome?"
