Non-specific mysterious effect

Post by Slimcreeper » Tue Jun 23, 2020 1:50 pm

I want a non-magical effect that makes water stick to and flow along a stone surface in a ruin in the Gruv. I'm thinking a nanotech surface treatment and magnetized water with a rare earth magnet. Maybe dependent mineral deposits in the water. Suggestions? I want it to be something that terrestrial engineers are not going to be able to replicate, but I want a standard scientist investigating it.

Text from adventure:
In the bottom of the step well there is an arch, with one leg in the water and one out. Due to some unknown property of the stone, water flows up the surface of the stone arch and pours off from a spout in the center of the arch. It is an elegant fountain, and has been operating long enough for the water falling from the spout to have worn down the stone below it. But the company investigating is most interesting in understanding how this pump seems to be working without any energy source.
