Everything was going so well. He had lured the fish up from below. He had coaxed it into opening its mouth wide enough to let him reach in for the herbs. But just as he was about to do so, Brutrumukk felt a familiar presence take hold of him. Having been denied His chance to possess Brutrumukk during his encounter with the merrow, it seemed that Skiggaret had no intention of letting Brutrumukk escape His influence this time. And so Brutrumukk froze, unwilling to pull away but unable to get any closer.

But Skiggaret's got me, and now all I can do is keep the fish 'ere with more pie. If you want the 'erbs, yer gonna 'ave to get 'em yerself."[/color] With that said, Brutrumukk crumbled some more pie down into the water to keep the fish from swimming away.
