Events

5 Heart Event

          

Details
Time:	6:00AM - 11:50AM
Map:	Beach
Season:	Summer
Weather:	Sunny
Description:	Willy is on the dock looking at a box. He has discovered something exciting. As the Farmer walks up, he greets them and says he's just caught a large fish. Noting the Farmer's curiosity, Willy offers to show them his catch. It's a rare Crimsonfish. Willy says they're becoming harder to find and people suspect it may be from pollution by Joja Co. factories across the Ferngill Republic. Willy says he'll release the fish as he doesn't want to put the species into any more danger. He's happy to have shared it with the Farmer, as some people don't believe his wild fishing tales. Quiet for a moment, Willy comments that it's times like this he thinks about buying a camera. He asks the Farmer how their fishing life is going, and they respond: I'll fish every now and again. "Good to hear you're still enjoying fishing, [Farmer]. I'm happy I gave you my old rod to get you started!" I fish at every opportunity I have. "That is marvelous to hear, [Farmer]! I'm happy I gave you my old fishing rod to get you started! I never imagined you’d turn out to be such a skilled angler." I haven't picked up my fishing rod in a while. "Sorry to hear it, [Farmer]. Hopefully you'll pick up fishing again soon!" Willy turns back to the Gem Sea. Staring across the water, he says if you squint on a nice day you can see the Fern Islands. His family is from the islands and he suggests they take a boat there someday. The waters are clear and many unique fish are available. The ring fruit there is especially tasty as well. Willy tells the Farmer he's going to toss the Crimsonfish back and continue fishing, then wishes them a good day. (+50 Friendship)
