Gilded Bay we’ll go to a place that is safe from greed, anger, and boredom

The man was in no hurry to dip his head into the pools, hesitantly from the fearsome crab no doubt (Valentine chuckled at the thought). Or perhaps it was the newness of it all. Whatever the case may be, he stalled above the water then pulled away at the last moment.
Nervous?  he teased with a warm smile.  Don’t worry, I can do it.
With that, Valentine stepped to the edge of the pool and took a moment’s pause to study what was below its surface. After spotting a dark blot clutched to the wall, he dove in nose-first. He reemerged with a small cluster of muscles and dropped it at his paws.
Hm, not fish but it will do.  Valentine slid to his belly and nudged it towards the man.
Here! Try it. You have to open the shell to get to the meat.
