Day 443:
I found a spot in my caverns where it’s almost silent. No zombies growling, no skeletons rattling, no gelatinous cubes splatting.
I set up a bed there and sometimes when I don’t make it all the way back to my normal home I sleep there.
The first few times it took a little getting used to. Even when you’re exhausted, even when you’ve done everything to bar the doors and protect yourself, it can be hard to sleep in a new place. I think that’s just part of being human, because it happened to me even way back as a kid when we’d stay in a hotel or something. But living surrounded by monstrous creatures certainly makes it clear why we evolved this way.
Now I’ve adjusted and gained confidence and I sleep better here than anywhere I’ve ever slept in my life.
And if it wasn’t like 10 floors underground I’d sleep here all the time.
Anyway, tired, and the torch is burning low. Going to sleep now.
