[QUOTE="MerakSpielman, post: 805524, member: 7464"] Kaltide looks around nervously. [color=silver]"I suppose since I'm going to be traveling with you and all.... You realize this is not something I normally speak of."[/color] He seems to lapse into a more lucid state than before as he recalls the story. [color=silver]"Long ago, an distant ancestor of mine discovered the secrets of Fisherwizarding. He traveled long and far, finding the best magic for the luring and catching of fish in great numbers. He recorded this lore in the book I keep in that chest. It is very old. "The lore and the book were passed down generation to generation, and in general, the fisherwizards lived in peace. They did not conceal themselves back then. Some of their knowledge helped preserve them in times of strife, but mostly it just made them a good livlihood. "Too good. Eventually, the people of my great-great-great grandfather's village grew jealous of his success, and demanded he share his knowledge. He tried to teach them, but many of them were dull, and all of them were impatient. Before they could even begin to grasp the meaning of what he was saying, they accused him of deliberately hindering their understanding. They grew violent. Only by the spells that he had memorized at the time did he escape with the book and his life. "And now it comes to me.

"but no matter what happens with you people, I feel that I will always be, at heart, a fisherman."[/color] Kaltide lapses into silence. Soon he starts mumbling under his breath and glaring about suspiciously, as he had been before. [/QUOTE]
