An Old Man resides by the sea.
- With Makeshift SCUBA gear:
- Hello there, young Adventurer. Back when I was your age, I used to be quite a fisherman. These days, well, what with my arthritis, and my gout, and this old war injury, well, I don't get out there so much anymore.
- Say, is that a set of SCUBA gear you've got there? Maybe you can help me. I lost my favorite boot, you see. Dropped it right off the side of my boat. Time was I'd just fish until I dredged it back up, and boy, lemme tell you, was it a hoot! But not anymore. That dang marlin sapped the last of my strength.
- Think you could go down there and get it for me? I'd be obliged, yessirree.
- Oh, and hey, if you wanna take your little buddy with you, this'll help.
![]() | You acquire an item: little bitty bathysphere |
- Subsequent visits:
- Say, have you found my boot yet? I know it's down there somewhere.
- PRO TIP: You can't find his boot yet, since the underwater stuff is very much a work in progress. Once we add the next handful of zones, rest assured that it'll be down there somewhere.
- -XOXO, Jick and the Gang
References
- This is a reference to a novella The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway.
