You can find the guide for the previous quest on the Caught to Order page.

The Fishmonger is located in Greater Marrow. Hand over the fish to him and he\’ll cut it open to reveal a Handkerchief. The object is a story item, used only to complete a Pursuit. You can tell by the purple background of the slot in the cargo hold.

The Handkerchief has caught the interest of a certain character, the Collector. However, it has no practical use.

FAQ

What is a dredge?

A dredge is a fishing gear that is used to catch shellfish and other bottom-dwelling creatures, including the grotesque fish. It is essentially a metal frame with a chain bag attached to it. The bag is dragged along the seabed and collects the creatures in its path. The dredge is typically attached to a trawler or a boat, and the catch is emptied out onto the deck for processing.

What is a grotesque fish?

A grotesque fish is a term used to describe any fish species that have unusual or bizarre physical features. These may include bulging eyes, elongated bodies, or strange appendages. Some of the most common examples of grotesque fish include the anglerfish, the hagfish, and the gulper eel. These fish are often found in the deep sea and have evolved unique adaptations to survive in their harsh environments.

Why are grotesque fish important?

Despite their unusual appearance, grotesque fish play an important role in the marine ecosystem. They are often apex predators, feeding on smaller fish and invertebrates, and are an important food source for larger predators such as sharks and whales. Additionally, their unique adaptations offer valuable insights into the evolution of marine life and can help us better understand the complex interplay between species in the deep sea.
