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.
Excellent day for a dip! I'm so glad my parents let me come out to play!  Do you not get to often? Not too often. My parents make me help on the farm and go to school sometimes.  I see, a hard days work deserves a swim. I am a fisherman myself. Really? That sound fun! What kind of fish do you catch? I am partial to salmon and bass myself, you see I have a ship. A ship? Woah. That sounds REALLY big! Not terribly large I am not the biggest on the water by any means. It still sounds really cool! Do you ever see pirates? There are not many around these parts, they tend to avoid this island. That's good.
