Am I daft? Siphoning works because liquid is constantly being pulled from
one end of the tube (first by the vacuum then by gravity). This creates
a pressure differential and pulls more liquid into the hose. This works
great as long as the liquid is at a higher elevation than the eventual
destination.

Pumping water out of an ocean for your town won't work though unless your
town is below sea level?

Exactly why settings should really be in seperate universes entirely. They
aren't for a lot of reasons primarily that no one seemed willing to
totally abandoned the other settings and wanted to be able to move their
adventurers between them. Silly reason in reality but thats the way it
stands.
