Chapter 4

Foremost amongst his scattered thoughts were: how to best be able to access
those watery environments, how to survive in the more dangerous ones (after
all, he recalled the terrifying story of the dragon turtle), when to make this
adventure, and where to begin. Unlike a great many of the surface dwellers
that he'd met, he was not of some adventuring class, so, he thought maybe
that's where he should begin.

In his mind, he made some mental notes of the various guilds that offered
teachings that he could study. One at a time, he considered: Warriors,
Thieves, Rangers, and Healers, none with an innate way to breathe water.
Next, he considered Invokers, Conjurers, and Shapeshifters since each can
readily use magic and as such, more easily access the means of breathing
water, flight and all sorts of things to expand the ability to explore the
wilds safely.

Ultimately though, it came down to one class, the shapeshifters which not only
gain the spell to induce water breathing but can further focus their study and
learn powerful aquatic forms. Whether wise or not, he decided that this would
be the path he thought of for now. So, he began scouting various towns and
guilds during his travels over the next few years in search of the most ideal
starting point for His adventure.
