The BecCanal
Thanks to the BecCanal, our citizens can bask in the holy waters of our mineral springs any time! The canal's creation was sponsored by the Beckett family in the early years of our town to bring the cool, healing waters of the mineral springs down through the city of Beckettville. This not only provided an easy, cheap source of water for our city, but also filled out our delightful Beckett Lake!
The Healing Powers of Our Water
Our founding family discovered this lovely land due to local rumors of healing mineral springs. By the graces of Dolōrem, our land was bursting with small pools of cold, therapeutic water: the blood of our deity. The Becketts discovered the restorative properties these springs could hold and quickly established Beckettville on the spot!

Orion Bottling Plant
Back in 1956, our Beckett family saw an open opportunity. The world was missing out on our refreshing mineral water!
Word spread quickly of the new health craze: Orion Mineral Water, straight from Beckett Springs! By building a new bottling plant up against the BecCanal and below the springs, Orion was able to speed up production and distribute our beverage on a worldwide scale.
In less than 10 years, we had expanded to three times our size with distribution centers across five continents. Our surplus of mineral water has been healing humanity for nearly three centuries!
Aren't we lucky to live right alongside the Vein of Dolōrem?

The History of BecCanal
Sponsoring the Canal
After a particularly rainy season in the spring of 1941, Beckettville experienced a series of floods due to the mineral springs overflowing and spilling down into the heart of the town. The floods ruined crops and drowned thousands of livestock causing a major commotion among the local farmers. To appease the growing number of angry farmers, the Beckett family sponsored the building of a large canal to lead the overflowing springs safely through the town and into a nearby depression. The opening day was celebrated with a large festival full of food, local entertainment, and a surplus of mineral water served directly from the canal by members of the Orion Company. As the town grew into a city, water systems were put in place and slowly expanded to utilize BecCanal as the main water source for Beckettville.

In 1983, the Beckett family sponsored a complete rehaul of the sewer and water systems below the city.
Beckettville now has the most advanced underground systems of any American city!
Please keeps hands, feet, heads, and small children outside of sewers at all times.

The Church of Spring
Come bathe in our miraculous healing waters!
Our doors are always open to those willing to soak their souls in the glory of Dolōrem!
Perched upon the southern sector of BecCanal sits a recreation of the beautiful Church of Spring. The original Church of Spring was built only two months after BecCanal's completed construction and lasted over forty years before it was lost in the treacherous heathen attacks of 1979. Thankfully, with a generous donation from the Beckett Family, we were gifted with our new, glorious building. Created as a safe place to worship the waters blessed by Dolōrem, parishioners would step down into the waters of the canal for services. Standing or sitting in the knee-deep water, they thanked our great deity for protection, health, and wealth before drinking from the flowing stream of mineral water. The pastors began referring to the canal as the Vein of Dolōrem, which quickly caught on with local populace partaking in the blood of our deity.
We're looking forward to your visit!
During open hours you can enjoy recordings of past sermons and take part in the rituals of our ancestors!
Listen to our great leaders of old comfort your fears and enlighten you on the true path to Dolōrem!
