Walkthrough

Stand in the white circles that appear randomly on the shore near Churning Rapids in order to catch the speared fish ( Fresh Catch), and deposit it in the basket. The fish can only be held for 4 seconds, after which it will break loose, flop onto the ground nearby and needs to be quickly picked up again (as another white circle) before it disappears. If you're attacked while holding a fish, it will be destroyed.

After 25% fish collected, River Drakes will rise from the river and attack Churning Rapids. While she will not die from their attacks, if she is brought to 1% health, she will not continue to spear salmon for a while, delaying the collection of fish until she heals up.

Dialogue

Before event start

Churning Rapids: Comin' in fast today, they are. Spawn is steady; gotta move my rump.

Churning Rapids: Aye, Wayfinder! Come 'ere. Two bear job, this is. Welcome to the spawnin' pool.

Event start

Churning Rapids: I spear 'em, you catch 'em and drop the little fellas in this basket. Painless death for the fish; somethin' to fill our gut.

Churning Rapids: But catch 'em with a careful paw. Will slip right out of your grasp.

Churning Rapids: Mind, don't overdo it. Take what we need, and leave the rest for another. Balance and whatnot.

Churning Rapids: And watch it. Prey means predators. Every bloodsucking bog crawler is keepin' an eye fixed on us.

One of the following upon catching a fish

Churning Rapids: Into the basket.

Churning Rapids: Nicest of 'em yet.

Churning Rapids: Good eatin', that.

When 7 minutes are left on the timer

Churning Rapids: Mm, gotta pick up the pace or they'll hightail it right out. Fish're lookin' to move along.

When the bar is full

Churning Rapids: It'll do. if you got anything left in your paws, bring it over. But no more — got our share already.

Event success

Churning Rapids: Oof. Watch it, now. There's a stir in the water, and I don't trust it.

Event failure

Churning Rapids: Basket's a bit light today. But it's fine. Catch has been lacking for a few weeks now anyway.

Churning Rapids: I'll get what we did manage home. Harb's gonna pull the fur from my ears...
