Returning from another of his journeys, Qom smelled a weird new scent when entered his home.
 - Hmm, I'm sure I forgot to do something before leaving...
Indeed. The bottom of his aquarium was covered in slimey layer of rotting fishes; greenish water started to produce fumes, smelling really bad.
 - Well, time to get some new species - said Qom after throwing last one of them to the bay.


The task:
 - get new aquarium fishes / animals for Qom (20)
 - rares will be paid additionally
 - as an extra, I need a truly rare fish, to be given to some special person.

Conditions:
 - each fisherman can take this task - tho, do not exceed the total sum of 20 fishes!

Reward:
 - Shillings will be awarded for the completed work and quality and imagination of your report.

He woke up. He was face down in some tavern. Looking about, some fellow in armour was looking at him and some man was ordering a beer. He couldn't remember a thing. Who was he? Where was he? Asking the soldier these questions, he found out he apparently was friends with this strange man, but he had still painted his horse. He was also in some place called Cove. His memory had been lost when he cracked his head off a stool. His name was Khaelieth. But why had the man said something about a male prostitute called Miguel that apparently lived in some place called Nu'jelm? Perhaps the soldier was one of "those."

Searching his possessions, he found a spellbook. And a ring, was he married? Apparently he had been, according to the soldier. Not a word as to whom he'd married though. Searching his other possessions, he found a fishing rod. Fair enough. But no money. The man who'd been ordering beer said he was buying them beer. But he didn't have any money. Deciding it was best to leave, Khaelieth wandered into the forest.




Wandering the forest for a few hours, he walked back to Cove. He found his name as a citizen, and looked at the tasks... Fishing! That he could probably do! As he didn't have a single coin to his name, he decided he'd fish a few fish before getting enough coins for the fish bowls! Sitting down by the dock, he began to fish...



After finding his way to the bank, he found out he had a few shillings to his name! Selling some of his fish and adding the coins to his shillings, he eventually managed to afford the fish bowls! Sitting down by the pier again, he began fishing for the fish that this Qom wanted. Eventually, night fell on as Khaelieth sat fishing, filling up bowl after bowl with fishes.



Catching a few normal fish as well, Khaelieth decided to buy passage on a ship headed for a city called Trinsic. Perhaps they'd have different fish there? Who knows! But at least he could fish during the trip over to Trinsic!



Getting off the ship in Trinsic, he looked around. Rats. Loads of them! Finding a relatively rat-free place by the seaside, Khaelieth sat about fishing again, before catching the next fishing ship headed for Cove.
