My mind is a bit fuzzy but I do remember Aleroth-the-village and its well, and then didn't Aleroth-the-city in Ego Draconis also have it? It had Source Square anyway, which sounds like it would be the site of the well and I'm sure there was some reference to it but I forget now.
Raze will know since he seems to indelibly remember all these factlets that the rest of us forget!
Well, Aleroth was incredibly changed for Divinity 2, wasn't it ?
I only remember someone from around the BD times trying to see EVERYTHING in the original DD maps that were there with the game ... He managed to visit a lot of locations that were still there although cut from the game content due to those infamous time constraints. He managed to do so via using those 2 tgeleport stones, since the player's character could not walk within the cut content maps.
I think his thread might still be buried somewhere in the DD sub-forum here. I'm not sure anymore, but I think his name might have been Barnabus.
So ... there indeed was a place found by him which was actually "the source" deep under that well. He had made a screenshot of that. It was at that time used as some kin d of "parking space" for lots of NPCS - cut ones, too.
This "source" was indeed kind of "infested" or how one could call it ... I'm not sure at all anymore, but I think that there was even a quest to clear it up again ?
The most astonishing part, however, was that there was a cat-like antagonist to Arhu. A little bit like an "evil mirror" of him, and that cat was there at this "source" / well. It had a connection to it, but I don't remember anymore what kind of connection. This is all so long ago now ...

http://divine-divinity.quantentunnel.net/maps/Divinity_53.jpgAnd here is the Dreamcat and the Source of Life
This was taken out of the regular game and is only left over in this In-Between-World. You go to sleep in the House of Madness/Iona's dungeon and wake up here, the Dreamcat changes you into a rat and challenges you to a race - if you survive until Polymorph wears off, defeat the cat and drink from the Source, you are a human again. Maybe she should be called Nightmare-cat
- you can guess, into what the cat will shapechange (hint, in which dungeon were you?) - Bronthion: problems with Polymorph lead to taking that quest out (Hmmm, maybe this is the cause of the trapped chests in the sewers? Kiya
