Day 1 in this Godforsaken land,
I've had a chance to establish some sort of forward base in thisshitho place. I've yet to find any signs of civilization, though there is plenty of flora and fauna about. The land is incredibly fertile fairly far below the surface. The various levels appear to include about three or four feet of soil with hard limestone beneath. Judging by the upheaval of rock was passed next to the sea, that layer is fairly deep.
(note: There is a strong likelihood of caves, which can mean anything from bats, to bears, to dragons.)
If I am stuck here until I can build a ship, I should have plenty of room to cultivate some edible foods. I still have some some apple and cherry seeds. It will take years for them to grow, but they should create a proper anchor on this world. If nothing else, it will be a great place to return to, for hunting.
Thus will I begin my study of the plants.
The first plant on my list is a small leafed bush that grows abundantly. It reminds me a lot of heather, and the small buds branching from its stalks agrees with this guess. I'm tempted to use them in the brewing of my first beer. It would also be beneficial to follow some of the bees to find their honey.
I have started my study by rubbing the leaf on position 1A, and the flower on position 1B. If I have no reaction to this, I will use the lip test tomorrow.
Well, that's all for one night. Cheers. It's water and fish for me night one.
