ooc: I know Anthem's duty is down as fisher but wasn't sure how good he was at it, or whether he knew he could fish yet so thought this would be an opportunity for him to try in an easier place.
Whilst Song had explained to Novella about the usefulness of the pools of water the tide left behind, the young girl still had no idea what the tide actually was. She probably would have been a little more cautious about the idea if she did, though there was no doubt in her mind that it was a wonderful plan, the only risk would be those crabs that she herself had very nearly ran the risk of getting pinched by.
It was very fortunate then as they reached the beach that the tide was currently out leaving the pools with the trapped fish that made for an easy meal. Happily she made her way to the first pool, peering inside to spot a fish swimming around. It wasn't the largest, in fact it was rather small though was still good enough for her to explain to Anthem about the little pools.
"OK Anthem, these are tide pools. The fish get trapped in them and it's easier to catch them here." Novella explained as she looked up from the pool and to her brother. Lowering her head to the water, she watched the fish carefully for a moment and when the opportunity arose, her head shot down to the water and jaws wrapped around the fish. Stepping back from the pool, she dropped it away from the water and looked back to her brother. "See, caught one already. You can have a go if you like too."
