Cicada Spring

Cicada Spring, also known as Grasshopper Spring, was one of the sources of fresh drinking water for the inhabits of the Nexal city in Maztica.

" An aqueduct. We have plenty of water in Nexal, but this from the Cicada Spring is the sweetest to drink. It runs into the center of the city, where it can be sampled by all."

- Poshtli, an Eagle Knight of Nexal.

Description
The lush Cicada Spring began on Mount Popol, where it cascaded down its southwestern slope into a small freshwater pool from where the waters were carried by a roughly eight-mile-long Aqueduct of Axalt towards the reservoir in the Sacred Plaza at the Heart of the True World. The waters of Cicada Spring were freely available to all and were beloved for their sweet and clean taste.

History
The aqueduct that supplied Nexal with freshwater was built during the reign of the Revered Counsellor Axalt, the successor of Chalco. During this time, often thought to be the peak of the empire, the Aqueduct of Axalt was the most impressive accomplishment of the Revered Counsellor of Nexal.
