			At any time during the day, the Fisherman can approach the Storyteller privately for some advice to help them win. The Storyteller’s pieces of advice are not “facts”. They are strategy tips that the Storyteller believes will help the Fisherman win if they are followed.

			Generally, Fisherman advice should be able to be structured as “you should” or “you should not”. It doesn’t need to explicitly include those words but should always follow that concept of suggestions that can be followed, rather than information about what is like a Savant would get. So “kill player X” or “find out who is the Drunk” or “you should rethink which info you’re trusting” or “trust player Y” are all great Fisherman advice, for example.
