The coachman leaned in, lowering his voice as he began to recount the tale.
"You know, it was either last year or the year before, there was this reckless dude who went there. Heard he wanted to take a shortcut, save some bucks on his way to the islands. "
"That guy, he just spent a night in Hegrales Town, and man, he came back nuts..."
"Nuts?" Elias raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
"Yeah, totally lost it!" the coachman replied promptly.
"They say he was all disheveled, running around and yelling all night. Some folks from the next town found him. He was just screaming, 'Fish! It's all fish!' and other crazy stuff. "
"The guy couldn't communicate normally anymore, went completely bonkers. They sent him to several mental hospitals, but no cure..."
"Fish..." Elias pondered over the word, puzzled. What's so scary about fish?
"Anything else?" he inquired further.
The coachman continued, "There was another incident a while back."
