The bright orange and yellow of the sturdy, unassuming marigolds speak to you, and you point to this dome.
She nods.
"A wise choice," she says. "You are practical, aren't you, for while a marigold is brightly colored, it is also sturdy, resilient, and fruitful. You like to think things through and make a decision that will be to your advantage. You like a secure life, but while you appreciate comfort, you are not afraid to work for what you want. I sense that your journey will involve some toil, but you will push through and find prosperity. You may sometimes be given to cynicism, but be aware that in our lands, there is such thing as happily ever after. Do not let your skepticism deprive you of yours. I have a gift for you!"
She swims over to another shelf and returns with a golden pocket watch, somehow still functional in spite of being submerged.
"This is a practical gift, but it also carries luck. It will bring you health and wealth, two things I sense you value. You should continue your journey now. Why don't you consult your map?"
She nods.
