Gone fishin'...

Decided they early that to die would be Nonnacedak, their fisherman. After all...bears eat fish in the winter, right? How did Nonna bring back so many fish so consistently? Yeah, he's a bear alright!

They dragged him down to the lake wherin he kept holes open that he might rip the fish from their watery beds to become meals for the Villagers.

"Well," they said, "As boring and clichéed as it sounds, you're going to sleep with the fishes!"

They forced him down to his knees and his head into a hole, and as his struggles grew less, the flame in their hearts did also.

As he finally went limp, their hearts were as cold as the ice they stood on.

"Oops," they shivered. But then as they pulled the body from the hole, they were somewhat heartened. Latched onto his nose was a fine catch of a fish!

"Maybe it's a way of showing his forgiveness for our mistake," they sniffled. "It's a good sign!"

But as they laid hold of it, the pirhana nearly snapped their fingers off. The Villagers ran screaming back to Hamlet.
