On the seashore facing the pier, seagulls squawk as they swirl overhead. The smell of salt fills the air, and the gentle, dull roar of the waves lapping the beach is omnipresent. A gentle breeze blows, and the chatter of the villagers fishing drifts down to the shoreline from the pier.

I live in a very old village on the bad side of the country. The villagers are nice where I live but we get a bad reputation. The forest behind my village is known to have magical creatures in it. I know the villagers are not allowed in the forest but we want to explore and find something new.
I'm so far from the forest. Nothing here is very interesting but I long to know what magical creatures live in the forest! Welcome, villager. I would love to tell you more about the magical creatures, but am so hungry. Have you seen any fish around here? We are at the seashore! I can't see them with my eyes, but I can assure you there's fish in that general direction. I'm from, ~that~ side of town, and I've come here to ponder before making my way to the forest. Well this is a very good place to ponder. Thank you for the direction to the fish. There are some magical fairies in the woods nearby.  Can you show me? Villagers are not allowed in there, especially not my kind. Could you fly overhead as lookout? I would be glad to. You should also know there are mermaids in the sea.  The sea is the least of my concern, pigeon.I'm already sort of regretting my excursion here, I honestly couldn't care less. So which side of the forest should we start from? The west The west guards are right there! Are you trying to get me killed?! You can find your own fairies.  Perhaps you'll make a nice snack before my big adventure. I will call the guards before that happens.
