The Living Water That Never Runs Dry

Water Of Life is a Rare Event from the Stars Age, costing 2 faith. It features Discern, allowing the player to choose between giving a friendly Being +2/+2 or creating a 2/2 Fish. This choice-driven ability makes it a flexible tool for either strengthening an existing unit or summoning a new one.

The Water Bearer—Pouring Grace Across the Earth

In the night sky, a mighty figure tips a vessel and pours streams of water downward, the Water Bearer. This constellation lives in the middle section of the story, between the first and second comings of Christ. His posture is generous. His hands are open. And the water? It never stops flowing.

This isn’t a trickle or a stream, it’s a flood of living water, gushing out in the age of the Church, when grace is preached to the nations. “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst...” - John 4:14. That’s what Jesus told the woman at the well, and that’s what He’s still saying through this heavenly sign.

This card's verse is John 4:14:

"But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."

The Water Bearer is not symbolic of nature, nor is it a seasonal blessing. He points to Jesus Christ, the One who gave Himself to quench the eternal thirst of man. This part of the story opens up before the cross, at the resurrection, and continues through the Church on earth.

The water is the Spirit. “He that believeth on me... out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit...)” - John 7:38–39. When Jesus rose, He sat at the right hand of the Father, and poured out His Spirit on all who believe. The Water Bearer lifts this message high for the whole world to see: the gospel is for all who are thirsty.

Drink Deeply, Believer

The Church age isn’t just a waiting room before the Lord returns, it is a river of grace, flowing freely from the pierced side of Christ. In this time, the invitation rings out across every land and language: “And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” - Revelation 22:17.

That’s the message of the stars. The water falls because the work has been finished. Every drop testifies that Jesus died, Jesus rose, and Jesus lives forevermore. There’s no thirst He can’t satisfy. There’s no heart He can’t fill. For the Jew first, and also for the Gentile, the cross broke every barrier so that grace could overflow in abundance.

To believe in Jesus is to drink in everything He’s done for you. To trust in His blood is to receive forgiveness, righteousness, and eternal life. And when you receive Him, you become a vessel, too, poured into by the Spirit, and poured out in love to others. The Water Bearer preaches to the sky what the Spirit and the Bride still declare on earth: Come and drink. The fountain is full. The grace is good. And Jesus is more than enough.

Strategic Use In Gameplay

Water Of Life is a versatile Rare Event offering a powerful Discern effect that adapts to your board state. Whether you need to buff a friendly Being or create a new 2/2 Fish, it gives you the tools to strengthen your position no matter the circumstance. This makes it especially valuable in decks that appreciate situational flexibility.

Synergies and Combinations

On-Board Buffing: If you already have a Being on the storyline, the +2/+2 boost can immediately elevate its threat level or help it win upcoming trades.
Board Building: If your board is empty, creating a 2/2 Fish provides a fast way to re-establish presence and defend against pressure.
Tactical Flexibility: Ideal in decks that benefit from adaptable plays, giving you control over how to respond based on game flow.
