As someone from a family of fishermen, Gwylan has grown to hate seagulls and carries that hatred with him everywhere he goes. It hasn’t gotten any better for him either, being stationed in a keep by the shore where seagulls tend to flock. If you don’t mind his ramblings, he has some seagull-related work for you.
