In the bustling port city of Ventoria, a remarkable festival known as the Tide Festival was held every year to celebrate the sea's bounty. The festival brought together fishermen, merchants, and families. Each year, the highlight was a contest of the largest fish caught. Contestants, donning vibrant shirts and hats, would bring their catch to the main square where a panel of judges awaited. The winner not only earned a cash prize but also the coveted title of 'Master Angler'. Over the years, the festival fostered a sense of community, as people gathered to share stories, enjoy seafood delicacies, and engage in lively competitions. However, this year, rumors spread that a strange substance was contaminating the waters, leading to fewer fish being caught. Many questioned whether the festival could continue its long-standing tradition.
