After that interrogation, William returned to the streets of that small village. One of the fishermen, Bran, went to talk to him.
"Is there anything we can help you with? Do you know the region?" Bran asked.
He couldn't even imagine what William had been through being on the high seas like that. Bran just wanted to give William a helping hand.
"Actually, I lived on an island, and I don't know this region very well… To be honest, I don't know anything," William answered.
His story of how he ended up there was already basically a lie, so he wanted to avoid telling too many lies and ending up being discovered.
'I can't say I came from another continent… That will have to do.' He thought.
Bran didn't seem to find anything strange about what William had said.
"I understand," Bran said, placing his hand on William's shoulder, "but don't worry. I can help you. Come."
