There once was a War Mage who stumbled upon a demigod, he told the mage he has the power to grant him one wish. He explained that he could wish for anything as long as if there is no magical property. The war mage laughed and made a mocking wish "i wish I can float on water without magic!" and it was done!
The war mage found himself lying on a pool of liquid, floating! However, the liquid was not transparent and had greyish color. He was also take -5 damage per second. What could this pool of unknown substance be made of?
