Continuing from here!

Is that so?

Well, anyway, it's more of a misadventure. Half-remembered, like I mentioned. There was a boat involved, I definitely started the night out on a boat, even if I didn't finish it in that way. One moment, it was all carefree revelry, the next, everything is on fire. There was fighting. Definitely fighting. Did I swing from something and jump off it? I can't seem to recall. I woke up on the beach, though, which was probably better than waking up actually in the water.

The sea saved you and now you are delivered unto me. How fortuitous.

But I get ahead of myself. My adventure cannot possibly compare to yours. It involved neither fire nor revelry or even a boat. What it did contain, however, was a bit of pointless fighting. I'm special, you see, I can do things that most cannot. Someone had something I wanted very dearly. It was a gift, something trapped within their brain. They were naturally quite reluctant to permit me to poke around. Imagine.

But they could not run fast enough. I got what I wanted. I usually do.

The Drowned God works in mysterious ways.

A gift... within their brain? Are you some sort of mage or seer like the ones from those old stories? I've heard of such things, but never come across them. I cannot imagine it at all, being able to look into someone else's head in such a way.

It sounds like what you got from them was worth all of that effort.

Mage... Ha. Yes. Let's go with that. I can do magic. Fly without wings, race through time, paint the future, a hands-on cranial nerve exam... I'm fantastic at the bar games.

( Boasting? Lying? Maybe either or none. )

The Drowned God? I like him already. Tell me more. Through this method or would you care to meet for a drink? That's a popular past time around here.

That's some talent. You must be pretty famous where you're from.

[That is, if he is telling the truth. Theon has to admit, he has no idea how to take all of those incredible sounding feats.]

You know, a drink sounds like a good idea to me. I can tell you all that I know of... and maybe then you could show off some of those magical talents, too.
