The swimming hole is calm and clear.  The sun sparkles off the ripples that form on the surface of the water.  Fish occasionally jump from the water and splash back in.

This kingdom is an island. Fishing is the main source of animal food here. I inherited my father's boat when he left the sea. It's hard work, and as a shipowner, working only for myself and my family, I am luckier than most. I've probably replaced every piece of my ship at least once.
What are you doing here kid? Swimming.  What are you doing here? I am here to fish of course! No, fishies are my friends.  You bad man.  You very bad man. I see you like the fish, do you? Yes, they play with me when I swim!  I can hear their whispers at night when I dream! Haha very well for today I will not touch the fish! Oh thank you!  Here, have my swinging rope as a thank you! Haha thank you very much! Tell me who taught you to swim? The fish!  Other kids say I swim weird though. I see you are really good friends with the fish that is good to hear. Yes!  This one is flipper, I call that one swimmer, and this one I call silly-face.
