Intro RP

A young boy sat on the shoreline, as the evening sun shone a brilliant orange glow from above. The boy, dressed in linen pants and a shirt, looked outward towards the waters. He looked as if he was anxiously awaiting something, which he was. His father and older brother, as well as a handful of their friends, had gone out on a fishing expedition early in the morning, and had yet to return.

Although the boy knew that his father and brother and their friends were capable fishermen and could handle themselves, he still felt that irrational worry that something had gone horribly wrong and they all died. As fate would have it, within a half-hour or so, the boy saw a small handful of canoes appear over the horizon. As the canoes neared the shoreline, the boy made out recognizable figures, and jumped up and waved in excitement. The recognizable figures waved back, since that's what you do when you get waved at.

An hour or so later into the evening, the boy, his family, and the rest of his small village gathered and ate. As the boy sat, stomach growling with hunger, he eagerly listened to his older brother tell stories about the fishing trip, and watched his father sagely nod in agreement to each of the brother's completely true and factual statements about the trip. A choice slice of a tasty fishy plus a hearty bowl of oats, were placed in front of the boy by his mother, who gave a disapproving glance at her eldest son and husband, as they continued to regale the boy with their increasingly outlandish tales of sea monsters and talking fish.

After finishing his meal, and helping salt the leftover fish to store for later days, the boy ran some laps around the village boundaries to burn energy, before meandering back to his family's hut as his mother and father called out to him. He then went to bed and slept, and dreamt about being a brave and strong fisherman like his brother and father when he grew up.
