Extend the Story - Add a Room

You ran to your house to get a pack with some food and clothes ready for the journey ahead. Gregaruth's kingdom was far south of your cottage, so first you were going to make a stop in an oasis town in the southern desert. After walking south for a few hours walking through meadows you reached the desert, your are disappointed at the lack of excitement in your journey so far. Some time later the sun starts to set and you still haven't visited the oasis town. Your running low on food on water and you worry you might not make it. Yet luckily you see a small pool of water in the distance. Once you've reach the pool and you fill up on water you notice an oddly shaped cactus near you. It has a cactus fruit on it.

I don't trust it, its not shaped like a regular cactus.
