(200) Fisherman Charles Gilles: You oughta know, we're highly competitive about fishing here at the cabins of Aurfield. Best fishermen of the realm gather here, that's for sure. Or the most enthusiastic ones anyway… Say, don't reckon I've seen you here before?¹⁾²⁾

Rothar Aercrest, my pleasure. → (201)

Leave. → (0)

(201) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Charles Gilles, expert fisherman at your service. Say lad, you into fishing?

Fishing is life! → (202)

I've certainly had quite the catch over the years. → (211)

Well, I cast my trusty rod every now and then… → (212)

(202) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Hah, a man after me own heart! The river's full of trout of all sorts - it's an excellent place for it! Although, between you and meself, there are places even better…

→ (203)

(211) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Always glad to meet a true veteran! The river's full of trout of all sorts - it's an excellent place for it! Although, between you and meself, there are places even better…

→ (203)

(212) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Heh, far be it from me to look down on a casual. You've come to an excellent place to practice, the river's full of trout of all sorts. And if you really get the fishing bug, maybe we'll be exchanging a few secrets later, eh?

I'll keep that in mind. → (0)

(203) Fisherman Charles Gilles: What say you we cut a deal? The lads here in the village are in the midst of a fishing competition and I'm of a mind to collect the trophy. I know a secret location where one can find the elusive Aurora Trout!

→ (204)

(204) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Alas, over the years the entrance's become so overgrown I can't reach it. But, if someone like you could figure out a way through, you could catch the fish for me and we'd split the prize!

Why does that sound like I'll doing all the heavy work…? → (205)

Sounds like a deal! → (206)

(205) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Well yeah, kinda… but! The secret fishing spot and the existence of the Aurora Trout is all down to my knowledge, so it's a fair deal. All I want is the trophy and the bragging rights, you'll get everything else, hehe!

In that case I'll need the location of this Aurora Trout. → (206)

(206) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Perfection! Y'know, folks here are so complacent they never think to look for spots outside the River Aure. But across the grove to the east, I once ventured through a tunnel that opened up to a sheltered clearing…

→ (207)

(207) Fisherman Charles Gilles: And there it is…! A waterfall runs down to a small pond below - into perfectly clear waters - where I spotted the glistening scales of none other than the mysterious Aurora Trout!

Then you've been fishing there before? → (208)

So the secret clearing's to the east? → (209)

I'll catch that trout. → (210)

(208) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Have I, mate? I used to win every contest with fish I caught from that pond. But never did I manage catch that Aurora Trout, it really left me feeling incomplete I guess.

So the secret clearing's to the east? → (209)

I'll catch that trout. → (210)

(209) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Aye, over the sheltered grove, way at the edge of the large forest I guess they call Mistywood. The tunnel entrance is there, but keep in mind it's overgrown so I hope you're as handy with a hatchet as you claim to be with a fishing rod, eh?

You've been fishing there before? → (208)

I'll catch that trout. → (210)

(210) Fisherman Charles Gilles: That's music to my ears! Oh, one more thing I nearly forgot! According to tales, the Aurora Trout is only attracted to shiny bait, so make sure to use a gilded hook!

Wait… don't suppose you could lend me one? → (217)

That won't be a problem. Updates The Prize Fish to phase 1. → (0)

(217) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Ah… nah mate, sorry! Couple years back I accidentally got mine stuck onto a crab shell, and the bugger scurried off with it. Happens to a lot of folk all the time, I hear.

Right then… Updates The Prize Fish to phase 1. → (0)

(213) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Charles Gilles, expert fisherman at your service. And if memory serves… you're Rowther Aerendale, yeah? Any luck fishing lately?³⁾⁴⁾

Truly, fishing is life! → (202)

I've certainly racked up quite the catch. → (211)

Actually, it's Rothar Aercrest… → (214)

How's life around here? → (215)

Nevermind. → (0)

(214) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Yeah whatever, exactly! So any luck fishing lately?

(215) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Ah well, y'know… We're highly competitive about fishing here at the cabins of Aurfield. Best fishermen of the realm gather here, that's for sure. Or the most enthusiastic ones anyway. There's something of a competition brewing right now as a matter of fact.

→ (216)

(216) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Which reminds me - any luck fishing lately?

Truly, fishing is life! → (202)

I've certainly racked up quite the catch. → (211)

Some, I'll keep at it… → (0)

(220) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Rowther Aerendale, my new best mate! Tell me, any luck finding the elusive Aurora Trout? Don't forget to use a gilded hook! According to tales the Aurora Trout is only attracted to shiny bait.⁵⁾

Don't suppose you could lend me a gold hook? → (225)

Remind me, where should I be looking? → (221)

So you think the Aurora Trout will win a fishing competition? → (224)

Um, it's Rothar, actually… → (222)

Nothing yet… → (0)

(225) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Ah… nah mate, sorry! Couple years back I accidentally got mine stuck onto a crab shell, and the bugger scurried off with it. Happens to a lot of folk all the time, I hear.

Remind me, where should I be looking for the Aurora Trout? → (221)

So you think the fish will win a competition? → (224)

Right then. → (0)

(221) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Aye, so head over the grove due east, way to the edge of the large forest I guess they call Mistywood. A tunnel entrance leads to a secret clearing in the woods, where a waterfall runs down to a small pond below - that's where you'll find the Aurora Trout!

→ (223)

(224) Fisherman Charles Gilles: I'm absolutely positive, mate! Used to win competitions all the time from fish I caught from the sheltered clearing. Never did manage to catch that Aurora Trout though, left me feeling kind of incomplete I guess…

Don't suppose you could lend me a gold hook? → (225)

Remind me, where should I be looking? → (221)

I see. → (0)

(222) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Yeah exactly! The elusive Aurora Trout - any luck yet?

Don't suppose you could lend me a gold hook? → (225)

So you think the Aurora Trout will win a fishing competition? → (224)

Righto… → (0)

(240) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Master Oarkness, any luck with the Aurora Trout? We'll be needing it soon if we're to win the village competition.⁶⁾

I found it swimming in the sheltered pond like you said, but the fish wouldn't bite… → (241)

What's the situation in the competitition like? → (247)

It's Aercrest, actually… → (248)

Leave. → (0)

(241) Fisherman Charles Gilles: And you're absolutely positive you tried with a gilded hook? Bugger it, I was convinced that oughta do the trick! Seeing the fish's eluded you and me both, mayhap the fault ain't in the angler but the bait just ain't enough. Hm, that reminds me…

→ (242)

(247) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Folk casting away at the river, catching same old average fish. They never think to look for spots outside the river, y'know? It's got lots of fish for sure, but you'll never catch anything special there.

I found the Aurora Trout like you said, but the fish wouldn't bite… → (241)

I see. → (0)

(248) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Yeah, ain't that what I said? Anyway, the Aurora Trout - we'll be needing it soon if we're to win the village competition.

I found it swimming in the sheltered pond like you said, but the fish wouldn't bite… → (241)

What's the situation in the competitition like? → (247)

Nevermind. → (0)

(242) Fisherman Charles Gilles: I once met one of those druid fellows in the clearing. He kept going on about these luminiscent worms found in the soil by the roots of glowing willows. Now, I just wanted him to leave me in peace, but you reckon he was trying to tell me something?

You don't think… → (243)

What trees, where? → (244)

But how does one retrieve worms? → (245)

I think it sounds like worth a shot. → (246)

(243) Fisherman Charles Gilles: I mean there I was getting frustrated because the Aurora Trout wouldn't bite, and I thought the weird tree lover was just scaring the fish away with all his blathering.

What trees, where? → (244)

But how does one retrieve worms? → (245)

Sounds like worth a shot. → (246)

(244) Fisherman Charles Gilles: The glowing willows, y'know? I guess they're all over the grove to the east, right beside our secret tunnel. Hard not to recognize 'em when you see 'em.

And how does one retrieve worms? → (245)

Sounds like worth a shot. → (246)

(245) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Mate…? I can't tell if you're asking that seriously, or just to jest… You grab a shovel and dig them up, innit? Speaking of which, I have one resting here right beside me, on the table.

What were these trees I should be digging at? → (244)

Sounds like worth a shot. → (246)

(246) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Yeah, yeah… I think we're onto something here too. A glowing worm at the end of a gilded hook? If the fish don't bite it, then I'll say the legends about it loving shiny things are complete poppycock.

Updates The Prize Fish to phase 3. → (0)

(260) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Alright, Master Eargrass? You get one of them glowing worms at the end of a gilded hook, and if the fish don't bite, I'd say the legends about it loving shiny things are complete poppycock.⁷⁾

Where should I be looking for the worms again? → (261)

Um… how does one retrieve worms? → (263)

Seriously, it's Aercrest… → (264)

Leave. → (0)

(261) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Well, one of them druid fellows I once met in the clearing said they're found at the roots of the glowing willows in the grove east of here. Kept going on about those luminiscent worms too, when I just wanted him to let me try to fish in peace…

And you didn't think he was maybe trying to give you a hint? → (262)

Um, so… how does one retrieve worms? → (263)

I see. → (0)

(263) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Mate…? I can't tell if you're asking that seriously, or just to jest… You grab a shovel and dig them up, innit? Speaking of which, I have one resting here right beside me, on the table.

Where should I be looking for the worms again? → (261)

I see. → (0)

(264) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Aye, it sure is…?

Where should I be looking for the worms again? → (261)

Um… how does one retrieve worms? → (263)

Forget it. → (0)

(262) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Aye, well, I mean… I was getting frustrated because the Aurora Trout wouldn't bite, and I thought the weird tree lover was just scaring the fish away with all his blathering. Besides, I swear their kind always speak in riddles - shoulda just told me straight, innit?

Um, so… how does one retrieve worms? → (263)

Right. → (0)

(280) Fisherman Charles Gilles: The competition's about to finish, Master Fairchess! I hope the glowing worms finally brought success, or we'll be out of the prize!⁸⁾

*Present the Aurora Trout.* → (283)

Yes, I caught the fish! → (282)

My… name… is… Aercrest! → (281)

Leave. → (0)

(283) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Hah, I can scarcely believe it! And look at those scales, lad! They truly do shift in color with the sun's rays, it's mesmerizing! I can't wait for that old coot Raymond to eat his socks when he sees this…

→ (0)

(282) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Well…? Don't keep me waiting, lad… I'm about to burst with excitement!

That is, I did catch an Aurora Trout… just hold on for a second… → (0)

(281) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Get a hold of yourself man! We need that Aurora Trout to win the fishing competition!

*Present the Aurora Trout.* → (283)

Yes, I caught the fish! → (282)

Leave. → (0)

(300) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Excellent stuff with the Aurora Trout, Master Airfresh! Hope the rewards were to your liking, I was only really after the fame here. Well that and seeing the sour face of Fishermate Raymond, hahah! Long standing rivalry between us, don't even ask.⁹⁾

I'll bite, what's between you and Fisherman Raymond? → (309)

Got any cool fishing stories to tell? → (301)

Leave. → (0)

(309) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Ah, well, it ain't anything that serious really. Used to be inseparable as kids, the two of us, united by our love for fishing. But as we got older and started taking part in competitions around here, it all slowly soured between us.

How so? → (310)

Happens to the best of us. → (0)

(301) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Aye, I got a tale for you. Starts out as when I was a young lad, no more than sixteen summers old, I took out in the middle of a moonlit night while my pa was still sleeping.

→ (302)

(310) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Oh it's like eons ago now, but one time I had a legendary catch and Raymond accused me of violating his trust. You see, I'd scored it at a fishing spot he'd once shared with me. Said I'd won the competition at his expense, which was ridiculous of course!

→ (311)

(302) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Wanted to go out on the rowboat on me own, you see, and pa would never had stood for it. So I went rogue-like. River was calm, night was quiet… and fish weren't bitin'. Well not at first anyway. But then it happened…!

→ (303)

I don't have time for this… → (0)

(311) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Took that loss pretty hard, he did. And it only got worse between us every competition since. If you ask me, he just never got over the fact that I turned out to be the better angler out of the two of us.

Got any cool fishing stories to tell? → (301)

As you say… → (0)

(303) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Saw a fish as long as my leg and twice as thick beneath the waters - the Gargantuan! The monstropus fish began leapin' and trashin', trying to free itself from my line, and I was in for the battle of my life!

→ (304)

I don't have time for this… → (0)

(304) Fisherman Charles Gilles: I swear I struggled for hours with that colossal fish, until eventually it dragged me off the boat into the river below! T'was then I realized I had to let go of my pole, else it might drown me…

→ (305)

I don't have time for this… → (0)

(305) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Had to return home soaked, cold and empty handed, having lost the fancy pole my pa'd made me. Oh, he was not happy with me that day, not happy at all. Never encountered anything of the like since, although…

→ (306)

I don't have time for this… → (0)

(306) Fisherman Charles Gilles: Sometimes still while out there on the river, I feel like I spotted that Gargantuan's shadow silhouettin' below the surface. But then it's gone, and I ain't sure if it's just my imagination… Food for thought, eh?

Sure, inspirational… → (307)

Sure, inspirational… → (0)
