Hello, Professor. What brings you here? Fancy a bit of fishing?
link
Alois
volume_up

Are you looking for help with something? Ah, no. Your eyes tell a different story.
link
Alois
volume_up

You know, I can hardly go fishing without thinking of ol' Jeralt.
link
Alois
volume_up

He and I would just sit here, casting our lines again and again.
link
Alois
volume_up

I'm no better at it now than I was then! Not a single nibble.
link
Alois
volume_up

Ah, just like your father. You know all the tricks of the fisherman's trade.
link
Alois
volume_up

Ah, just like your father! He used to tell me exactly the same thing.
link
Alois
volume_up

I was hopeless at it, but he was a master.
link
Alois
volume_up

In the time it took me to catch one fish, he could fill his basket to the brim.
link
Alois
volume_up

You know, talking to you, I'm feeling very nostalgic.
link
Alois
volume_up

Why don't you join me? We can trade some stories about the old man.
link
Alois
volume_up

We spoke before about how Jeralt never seemed to age, right?
link
Alois
volume_up

Once, when he was drunk, he let the secret slip.
link
Alois
volume_up

He said he'd had an infusion of Crest-bearing blood, and it had greatly extended his life.
link
Alois
volume_up

Well, we'd both been drinking. I figured he was joking, so I just laughed it off.
link
Alois
volume_up

Then I asked him his age. He said he'd stopped counting after he hit one hundred.
link
Alois
volume_up

And he was telling the truth! In those 20 years he was away, he didn't age a bit.
link
Alois
volume_up

An incredible person, to be sure. And I probably don't know the half of it.
link
Alois
volume_up

Actually, I'd... I'd like to ask you something about Jeralt, if you don't mind.
link
Alois
volume_up

When Jeralt was away from the monastery, what was he like?
link
Alois
volume_up

In other words, he was exactly the same!
link
Alois
volume_up

When he was with the knights, he always found time to go fishing. He was hooked on it, you might say!
link
Alois
volume_up

He'd say there was no greater pleasure in life than sinking his teeth into a fish he'd caught, and washing it down with a drink.
link
Alois
volume_up

In other words, he was exactly the same!
link
Alois
volume_up

When I was his squire, he was always hollering for a drink. He just wouldn't put a cork in it!
link
Alois
volume_up

But on the battlefield he was unequaled. That's why people used to call him the Blade Breaker.
link
Alois
volume_up

I have to say, right now, fishing with you, it really takes me back.
link
Alois
volume_up

This feels just like the good ol' days, when Jeralt was sitting alongside me...
