Repairing the Leak

Tried to repair the leak myself. I’d been at it for hours when I heard music coming from the shore. A strange, warbly flute that rose as the sun set. The sound of music came closer, until a masked stranger stepped out from behind the trees. They lowered the flute and smiled at me. “Well met, well met! I’m hosting a little fishing competition, and I heard of a lonely fellow who happened to be one of the finest anglers on the island.”
