Here is my entry for LC6
Rayth Wulfsbayne was passing through Mikithdar on his way to look into a lead he had on information of the whereabouts of Karlamac's sword when he bumped into a couple of his old friends who were about to set out on their way to the fishing grounds.
On the left, his trapline partner
Jovic Knerl (Lure 1, Skill 4, Luck 1) and his childhood friend
Smogg Slimms (Lure 3, Skill 2, Luck 1) on the Right.
Rayth: "What on earth are you going to do with that anchor? It looks like you've sharpened the points of it!"
Jovic: "I'm gonna stick a big hunk'a meat on it, drop it over the side, and hopefully catch me a whale of a whale out in the Howling Seas! Not the most sophisticated method, but last I checked, seamonster-sized fish don't worry about how pretty their food is, har har har! It's a long trip North, but I know a guy who's got a boat so we are going to set sail from Rothsburg tomorrow. The prize money from the tournament will help get me through the summer until those varmints we trap start to grow out their winter coats and are worth trapping again."
R: "Ahh, yes. Tough times for a trapper in the summer, I know. And what about you, Smogg? That looks like a fine fishing pole you've made there."
Smogg: "Mrrrph. This ol stick? I had a much nicer one, but a huge seafish broke it in half when I hooked him the other day. I never have been one to be very lucky, I guess. I had to borrow this one from an old man who lives near the lake so that I could try my hand at this tourney. I'm about to head to Jharton to try the water over there. Unlike this dumb brute, I'm of the notion that the best fish prefer the best-looking lures."
R: "Well, you've always been gifted in the art of luremaking, so I'm sure you'll be able to overcome having to use that 'old stick.' " *chuckling* "Best of luck to the both of you. I'm going to see if I can't find that old sword that everyone's talking about. Maybe I'll have a bit of fortune myself!"
