Atom's Spring is a location on the Island in Fallout 4.
Background
The Children of Atom believe that this spring was blessed by Atom. They send those who wish to join their ranks to drink from the spring, knowing full well that the spring is poisonous.[1] They believe that those who survive are capable of serving Atom. Those that return are welcomed into the cult, however, some suffer brain damage as a result.[2]

Theil: "Heh. You. Saw the Mother of the... how did... I guess it's not our place to question the ways of Atom. If there is anything I or the other Zealots can do to serve, all you need to do is ask."
