challenge
Santiago feels something on his line. It was pulling it. It started to pull it very hard. It was a Marlin. Santiago pulls the marlin for 2 days and on the night of the 2nd day he kills it with a harpoon
Abyss
A bunch of sharks start coming. Santiago watched as their dorsal fins slice through the ocean. There were too many sharks and Santiago could not fight them all. The sharks ate the fish leaving the fish bones behind

Santiago keeps his head up after the loss and should not lose hope

New life/Apology
Santiago realizes that he fishes because he loves doing it. He wonders if its a bad thing to kill something you love. He did kill the shark but because of self defense. He apologizes to the marlin for its death
