- Description: The
District of a hundred fountains has been constantly improved upon since the time
of Oberon. Located along the outside of the Eastern Arm of Amber this is the
generally considered the most beautiful. Suffering little from either Pattern
Fall or the OSW, work here has focused on improvements that would enhance its
aesthetic beauty including the 100 fountains for which it draws its name. Now
there are countless fountains, ponds, streams and man made waterfalls. Every
major crossroad circle has some distinguishing feature at its center.

all around them.
