Day 258:
I’m doing exactly what I said I would do yesterday: digging from the cave I found toward the house so that I have a safe way to move back and forth, and maybe can even do some night mining.
My biggest worry with this plan is the geography: there’s a sea to the north and what appears to be a freshwater river to the right.
I talked a long time ago about how it’s against my ethics to allow the two to mix because of something I do.
It’s also important to note that a solid stone structure between the two holds up quite well, and this is what geologic evolution provided in this location. But should some idiot miner come through and remove most of the stone, well, there’s no good reason why the structure should continue to separate the two.
So I’m being very careful to reinforce what I’m digging where I can and I’m hoping I don’t get soaked by this adventure.
This wool had better be worth it. 27
