A mountain of fish

Post by Sinister »

An excited lizard can be heard singing a song that goes along the lines of "Fish. Fish fish fish. Fish fish. Fish. Fish, fish. Fish." as he drags a heavy looking bag through the streets of Runewick, which reeks of just that: Fish.

Meanwhile, in the distance, a happy looking fisherman can be seen grinning from ear to ear while holding a heavy looking bag of gold coins.

The Runewick harbor smells more fishy than usual.
A lizard seems to have made his nest nearby in a mountain of fish, spending all day gorging himself on said fish if not sleeping.

The rotting smell of gradually decaying fish spreads through Runewick.
On top of the mountain of fish, the lizard sleeps peacefully with an abnormally bloated stomach... although on closer inspection, he may just be dead from over-eating.

An not is pinned at the towns board:

Someone has provided Runewick with a large shipment of fish, but it was neither ordered nor accepted by anyone.
Meanwhile this donation is about to rot and put an unpleasant smell over the town.
If no one claims the fish within a dwarven day, they will be disposed or released for collection.
Although I am reluctant to use this method, burning the carcasses seems to be the cleanest solution.
I am open to other solutions and look forward to suggestions from Runewick's citizens.

Jemand hat Runewick mit einer größeren Fischlieferung bedacht, die allerdings weder bestellt noch von jemand angenommen wurde.
Mittlerweile ist diese Spende dabei zu verrotten und einen unangenehmen Geruch über die Stadt zu legen.
Sollte sich binnen eines Zwergentags niemand melden der die Fische für sich beansprucht, so werden sie entsorgt oder zu Abholung freigegeben.
Auch wenn ich die Methode nur ungern anwenden möchte, scheint das Verbrennen der Kadaver die sauberste Lösung zu sein.
Für andere Lösungen bin ich offen und freue mich auf Vorschläge von Runewicks Bürgern.

Holding her nose against the permeating smell then reading the note, the witch writes neatly at the bottom....

Another note is attached to the board:

Among the pile of fish, something has been found that requires investigation. It is possible that people with medical knowledge would be of advantage. I would like to call interested citizens to form a commission of inquiry at short notice. Place and time will be announced on the city board.

Unter dem Haufen aus Fischen wurde etwas gefunden was einer Untersuchung bedarf. Möglicherweise sind Personen mit medizinischer Kenntnis von Vorteil. Zur Bildung einer Untersuchungskommission möchte ich interessierte Bürger kurzfristig eingerufen. Ort und Zeit werden am Stadtbrett bekanntgegeben.

The large mountain of fish in the surroundings was eat...bought away by her children, her family and herself during a family meeting.
The family wishes to express its deepest thanks for the hospitaality and the fish. Was a good feast.

(( the fish and the body was removed and burned during the quest by Sarangerel, Wispher and Deanna. But it is quite possible that there was still a lot of fish in the harbour basin of the city ))
