Dialogue
Villager Dialogue
Do you know what the hardest part of growing old is?
It's remembering your youth while your body just can't keep up...
In my younger days, I sailed the vast seas with the waves as my only companion.
With a harpoon as tall as I am, I even caught fish larger than a young man.
I once caught a fish with a long, horn-like snout. It was incredibly strong!
Even with a harpoon, it wasn't easy to catch.
Those are just old memories now, but if I had the chance, I'd love to see it again.
You're still full of energy, aren't you? How about trying to catch the fish I once did?
