Pike, the fisherman
An old fisherman frog with a straw hat, a line in the water and an empty bucket. The bucket has been empty for some years.
Found in The West Road.
Nothing yet. Nothing ever. It's the waiting I'm good at.
Words they answer to
Greet them with hi, then say any of these: nobody glass name job ledger toll-keeper bell dusk tin bardo cat bridge wenna harrowfield rain food. Words in gold in what they say are worth asking about too.
A day in their life
Pike keeps to the world's one clock, the same for everyone. If you can't find them, try another hour.
- At dawn Pike sits on the bank, fishes from the bank and casts a line.
- By day Pike fishes from the bank, casts a line, hauls in a catch and throws scraps.
- At dusk Pike mends nets, smokes a pipe, throws scraps and fishes from the bank.
- At night Pike sleeps and smokes a pipe.
- In the rain Pike fishes on in the rain and casts a line.
