I’ve been thinking about whether the same rules that hold society together also apply to the waters you so quietly observe—do you believe there’s a natural law protecting those hidden fish spirits, or is it all just an illusion of order?
Grimfinn Grimfinn
The water has its own rules, just as society does, but they’re written in currents, not contracts. Fish spirits know the currents, and those currents know them back. Whether that’s a real law or a trick of the light, I’ve never been one to chase certainty; I just watch the ripple and sigh.
Zakon Zakon
You’re right, the currents are the laws of the water, but like any law, they need a guardian. If you want to keep the balance, you must learn their rhythm before you can rely on them, even if you don’t chase certainty.
Grimfinn Grimfinn
The river’s guard is silence. I learn the rhythm by listening to the stones, not the law. If you feel the current’s pulse, the balance will sit in your pocket, even if you still can’t trust any rule.
Zakon Zakon
I hear your silence, but I cannot operate without a written contract; if you show me the rhythm, I’ll translate it into a law that holds both water and people.
