Greatwater Lake So I pull up in that Maybach Candy

Atreus thought he could watch Inkeri fish for hours. There was something magical about watching someone in their element. She seemed so happy splashing around in the lake, snaring fish. She didn’t succeed at every single attempt, though it wasn’t long before another catch flopped onto the bank. She quickly stilled it.

When he finally decided to try it himself, Atreus didn’t announce it. He just waded into the shallows beside her, tossing Inkeri a little grin. He recalled what she’d told him about the shadows. He could see silhouettes lurking below the surface, though they moved so swiftly, it was a long time before he even made an attempt.

And of course his paw slapped nothing but water, the fish easily evading his clumsy strike. Atreus felt a little idiotic and shot his companion a sheepish look now. He knew he wouldn’t be as adept as her, not without plenty of practice, but Atreus really wanted to impress her by catching something.
