Baracus snorted in annoyance... he wasn't that young. The creature in here must be ancient to think so. "I'm not young... I've been an adventuring Paladin for a year now!" He shouted a bit in annoyance with a stomp of his hoof on the stone floor. As the barrier came up behind him he swallowed a bit... there'd be no leaving now even if he did chicken out. So the only choice was forward. "I never said you were either of those things. But I've heard the stories about this place. All the monsters protecting you... the fact nobody ever returns from coming here. You need to be vanquished." Granted there had never really been any stories of this being causing trouble.

Baracus paused as he began really looking around the entryway and seeing the littered corpses and what seemed to be possibly magic items. Did this being have no desire to claim these treasures? He never even considered that she might have placed them here. Even drinking a health potion he found to heal himself back up to full. He blinked at the riddle as he was busy looting the treasures here. "Not much for cleaning are you? You'd think you'd have a minion specifically for that." He sarcastically offered and then glanced up. "I'm not really good at riddles. Can I have a hint?" He sheepishly asked as he scuffed his hoof just a bit shyly.

Though the sound of running water drew his attention more than anyting. As he was still parched after finishing his waterskin. Drawing out his great sword once again he began making his way into the room with the fountain. He had no clue what the answer to the riddle was... but hope she'd decide to give him another hint. She could hear his dry lips smack just a bit as he began entering the 'Spring Room'. He was careful... looking for traps or threats as he stepped closer. The water looked so cool and refreshing... though that could be some sort of illusion. But it didn't matter... if there was no immediate threat he dropped to his knees and dunked his head to drink.
