Chapter 5 by MagicMody MagicMody

Mountain Trail

Day 1 OtMT

Walking through the forest you notice the gentle sunlight peak through the leaves lighting up your way. Gentle streams and brooks bubble and gurgle alongside you. Cicadas and other insects chirps and creek all around you hidden in the tall blades of grass. Birds are chirping in the distance and the whole experience is entirely peaceful.

Which is something you wholeheartedly disrupt with your messy and loud footsteps and coo and awes at the wonders of natures. Every Corner of the forest is absolutely teaming with Mystery. New herbs, New flowers, New animals, New insects, New EVERYTHING. Making use of some flint and the small note left by the mysterious Deity you write down as many things as you can in your native language. You create your own names for said plants and draw small leaf patterns to identify them later. By the time you finish your exploration of the small local area you've filled up your brain with new information, the paper with scribbles and the forest with excitement. Completely missing the fact that flint is sharp and should have torn your paper apart you continue to scribble away.

Also its now sunset so you hurry off to set up your small campsite. After searching for a little while you manage to find a small opening almost like a grotto. You take careful note of the location and even leave some markings so you can find your way back. The place is littered with sticks and even has a old unused campfire. The Campfire seems a few weeks old so you decide to make this your small hiding place. Quicky scavenging for sticks and some wood you find most of it to be damp but there are some small scraps that have dried out and stayed so. Using your flint and some stone you try your best to light a fire which is to your success as a small flame slowly ebbs into shape. You throw more pieces of wood on even the damp ones as the flame is eventually roaring.

Setting up your tent you lay open your cot grab some trail mix and chew it on it. Before you know the sun is down and you lie down inside your cot and doze off to the campfire.
