Chimper #252
Ogurikouzukenosuke keeps a detailed log of personal injustices. No one in Waterfall City has seen the scroll itself, but they witness its effects daily in their perpetually furrowed brow. Rumors abound: some say it lists forgotten debts, others whisper of a secret vendetta. The truth is far more tragic. The log meticulously tracks every time a fish has splashed them. Entry #47 notes a particularly audacious carp near the great plaza statue. Entry #62 describes the betrayal of a seemingly placid trout during a moment of quiet riverside contemplation. Their Adventure Sword is rarely drawn for monsters, but it has been brandished threateningly at several smug-looking bass. The mystery of their constant upset isn't a dark past; it's the quiet dread of knowing fish splash #83 is always imminent.
