Day 697:
Another hole in a hill, this one not a proper cave so much as an undewater pond. It’s brackish and smelly and it’s the first thing I’ve seen that makes me think there may be bacteria on this planet.
I don’t know what all I’m killing off, but I do know if I uncover it so it gets some sun there’s a much lower chance that zombies and skeletons will congregate here, so I’m changing it from being a cave-pond to a pond.
This means chopping a lot of trees down that are on the cave roof, but hey, I just used a lot of wood to build a road, so I’m not feeling super-guilty about that. Plus, I’ll grow more trees. Just not so many that murderers can hide in them this time.
