Why do they regularly eat fish?
My name means either "person who trumpets minor points of learning" or "maker of words." That fact that it means the latter in Sindarin is a demonstration of the former. Beware.

Ye, yu ray. Sajiwa du smol aylan de Karibyan. Di si de ol ron, an neba neba yon pas tu mayl.
Yes, you are right. Sajiwa is a small island in the Caribbean. The sea is all around, and never further away than two miles.

In Bearland, the summers are hot and the winters are almost, but not quite, cold enough for snow. On maybe one or two days there is some snowfall, but it starts melting immediately. The only exception to that are the mountains, where the snow may remain for a few weeks.
