“Of course I can swim. I grew up in the Twelveswood. It might not have the ocean but there are enough bodies of water that were deep enough for a kid to learn how to swim. I very much like the water.”
“Sadly no. My father wasn’t big on us learning things that were not needed as I was growing up. An then Coerthas and Ishgard froze over because of the Calamity. I do not fancy the idea of learning to swim in icy waters. Otherwise swimming has never really come to mind. Never seemed like something I needed to know how to do.”
(Karigan knows how to swim but won’t go near water that you can’t just safely stand in. Not after she nearly drowned once. That was all the more she needed to avoid going anywhere near boats or water again. Not that it was her fault. It was stormy and the ocean is never friendly in a storm.)
