You are at the eastern edge of a large pond in the middle of Privateer's
Park in Pirate's Cove.  The water in the pond is crystal clear, through
which you can see a rocky bed that seems to be only a handsbreath beneath
the surface.  A stone embankment that surrounds the pond is to the east,
preventing you from climbing out.  The pond stretches to the north, south,
southwest, and northwest.  A small island lies to the west.  
A mallard duck is swimming in the water here.
