Day 717:
It was finally a beautiful sunny day out! A touch humid, but I woke to the sound of zombies spontaneously combusting on the surface, so I knew it would be nice and sunny! That’s the way you really want to wake up, let me tell you.
I went back out to the area near the sea that I’m terraforming (I’m terraforming the area, not the sea… although I’m not sure it’s a sea so…)
Anyway, went out. Fell into a sinkhole disguised by weeds and vines. Discovered it was full of pigs, a sheep, and more ducken than I could count.
Now I don’t like to think of myself as a person that’s cruel to animals (although in this place I’m pretty sure my morals are getting a bit warped) and I don’t like to put food in storage for too long — not even meat, which seems to keep just fine eternally here thanks to what I’ve pretty much concluded is a total lack of bacterial — but when you’re hip deep in a dozen duckens the safest thing to do is start stabbing things that aren’t you.
Then fill in the hole so you can climb back out.
It was not my finest shining hour as a human, and to prove that, when I finally reached the surface again, the sky opened up as if to say “nope, no sun for you.”
I slunk back home and started skinning duckens. I might not be a good person but at least I’ll have enough leather for more pants.
