"Well he may be a traitorous snake but he’s one of the oldest animals here" Ava intoned.
"Oldest?" I asked.
She strokes a nod. "Yeah the oldest but that doesn’t give him the right to keep the waterfall all to himself"
"I see," I said with narrowed eyes.
"Diablo did make it clear that you must embrace yourself before the Waterfall Of Truth can accept you," Puma said. "It implies the whole thing... The Waterfall Of Truth can only accept those true to themselves"
