On the evening of July 6th, 2016 the Fishaholics Anonymous guild members were all gathered together for a monthly meeting in Logan’s bait shop. The numbers had grown, and chairs were lined outside the door as the Captain discussed plans for a big party to be thrown now that the lakes had been re-opened. A warm Summer breeze stirred some of the papers on the register that Roku had been reading from, and she slammed her hand down to keep them from flying off. The move caused a few chairs to shift, as weary heads nodded to pretend they had been paying attention instead of napping.
“Now, we have a very special tournament coming up to celebrate the lakes being re-opened, and there will be a good amount of gold and item prizes involved in this. Each lake will have its own tournament, and the sign-up sheet will be up here after the meeting has concluded. The cost to register is….”
Roku paused and looked to the doorway, where people had moved aside as a large figure entered the room. A slow shuffle shook the wooden floors as Old Man Logan approached the counter. His eyes were wild, and his hair more ruffled than usual, as he turned to address the crowd.
“Ay, I tell yeh there’s somthin wrong with the lakes thar. Do any of ye perchance know why thems closed the lakes in the first place? ALIENS I say to ye! This be a bad idear, I warn ye Roku.” Logan’s voice was sincere, as he turned to the captain with a scowl on his face.
What do the guild members do?
Option 1: A loud burst of laughter comes from the crowd, and people begin to mumble under their breaths to one another about the silliness of “aliens”
Option 2: The group stays quiet and waits to hear what the Captain has to say. Did she know something about the lakes being closed that they did not?
Option 3: A few bold people speak up and ask Logan for an explanation, wanting to get the full details of his warning.
THE POLL WILL BE OPEN UNTIL JULY 14TH, WHEN PART 2 WILL BE DETERMINED.
