Teach a man to fish

She never really thought too much about having to adapt how she did things. Maybe it was because she grew up with her mother having to do the same thing for her blindness. It had been a normal part of her life from a young age so it was something that Etain did without thinking "If I had four legs I wouldn't have to do it this way" or "If I had four legs this would be easier". Both of those statements were completely truthful and were things she had thought from time to time, but in this case she was simply doing the best she could with what she had. The more time she spent on her own and having to assist her aging parents, she realized how much easier it was to catch fish than it was to chase down larger game. Movement wasn't an issue for the most part, but she couldn't say that she was incredibly agile or fast. That was what brought her here to the river. If she could just get a few good sized fish then she would be well off for a couple of days. She had left a few with her parents before she left, but she hadn't bothered to catch any for herself. She walked along the river bank until she found a portion of the wide expanse of water that seemed a bit more calm and easier to wade into. She stopped once the water was barely lapping against her stomach and turned to face the on coming current. No one had taught her how to fish so it had been a lot of trial and error mixed with a lot of failed attempts and being soaked in water. She stood perfectly still in the water, keeping her blue eyes peeled for any movement below the surface. |
