Day One

Fianly out of the house and out on my own in the world. I have learned

how to craft simple wooden tools and met and elf by the name of

Lavanthus. An young Elf much like myself, tho a bigger dreamer. As we

gathered woods and sand to fashion a make shift hut for the night he told

me in detail of his dreams to lead his own kingdom one day. I replied by

telling him i would join we he conqured or built and empire. As night settled

in these new creatures i had never seen befor started to crawl out of the mist, Lavanthus told me they were the undead. As we fought off the few around our house we were both wounded an settled down for the night.

Day Two

Lavanthus trys to teach me how to fish so i could have a steady supply of food. You know the old saying give a man a fish feed him for a day teach him to fish feed him for a life time... Well just give me the fish. I found out slowly that dwarfs do not make good fishermen. After what seemed like hours of casting i gave up and went to harvest trees. Something i can handle. Bumped into a pathfinder building a wall and tryed asking if our hut was in an allowed build zone, but he blew me off and went on build his wall. As night settled in and Orc asked me to join him on his quest to build a village and so i did. Gorn was his name.

Night Two, Day Three

I usualy sleep through the nights do to the growing undead problem but Gorn would not have it. Stuborn Orc wanted to travel at night and the rest of the party seemed to not mind. Sadly i went along with the idea. I gave Gorn my olny map that i had pillage off of a skeleton. Why he had it i do not know, but using the map Gorn set off due north to find flat land. The rest of the party followed losly behide him. As wewe strolling down a road i noticed this two green creature wandering towards us ever so slowly. I asked Gorn what the were. With fear plainly striked across his face he asked in such an empty voice.

"Don't worry its just a slime.. and a creeper"

At first i was more worried about the big green ball bouncing towards us then the green figure circling us. To my disbelif tho the slime fell in two or three swings of the Orcs sword. Then out of no where an explosion, i missed most of my first creeper fight. With our whole party wounded we carred on away from the rising sun. I stood in total horror when i watched the undead set ablaze but Gorn would not let me stop. He assured me the village we were to build would be a much better sight. Upon arriving at the location he desired to build upon we were instucted to craft shovels to level the land. I notice moments later Gorn had a stone shovel, and i thought Orc were dumb but he was the only one with the ablilty to craft one. I stood in amazement a little to long, his shovel knocked me out. I awoke around high noon when Oren returned with fish for lunch. After a light meal i felt much better and set out to help with the land. Once we had leveled it all Markus told us he was rasied on a farm and had farmed 30 years of his life, so we took his advice and stared a mini farm. I hate to farm...

Night Three

I awoke in our make shift village on my first night only to find myself alone. I got to fight a creeper one on one tonight but as soon as he fell another took his place. This one bested me. I rushed to build our first building in the settlment as soon as i finish and had put the door on i progressed to hang some lights on the walls, seeing as the build has no roof, only to turn around and see two more creeper staring me in the face RIGHT NOW AS I RIGHT THIS JOURNAL!!! If some one fines this is a gaint hole some where, well then you'll all know how it ended..

Day Four

I awoke to a spider dropping in from where ishould of placed a roof. I slained the spider and noticed the two creepers DO NOT burn like the rest of the undead. I'm starting to wornder if the are even undead. The eventaly wondered off to my relief. As i opened the door to my shock my little brother was climbing down from a tree on a near by hill. He had ran away from home and tracked me down. He is only of the age of 15 but is very capable of handling himself. He is diversed in the art of armed combat, better then myself. He said he had been tracking me down for the past two days with breaks only to eat. Wore out and tired from not sleeping for two days i let him rest in my shelter while i tryed my hand at fishing again. I failed yet again so i harvested some apples from a near by tree and we settled with a light meal. After he had regained his strength we set off to collect wood to make him a set of wooden tools so we could work on this so called village together. Which we still have not got permission to build yet. Only to find we wondered so far that the village was not in line of sight. We were lost with no knowlage of the land. We soon crossed a canal tht looked as if it was dug for shipping and ended up in a small desert on the other side. We soon found out you can not harvest cati with your barehands. Night begain to creep upon us so we dug a hole and prepared for the worst.

Day Five

Upon returnig to camp or our so called town we found Gorn hovering over ruins... we were greifed. I have seen how bandits leave a building and farm when they stroll by. Gorn set of to find a new area to settle and Zen and me set to find a more steady food source. As i had hunted back in my home town it was mainly small game but when Zen chased down some swine and slit there throats i soon learned how to skin them and grill the meat. Zen and i feasted for the first time scine leaving home. Gorn soon found us and lead us to a new town. This town was better gaurded as well as having a hiiden entrance. We had found home.

Night Five

We ventured out in a thunderstorm the "Grab resources" still learning the ropes tho and also finding new locations

[Riznam 10]

Day Six

A bandit ventured into our camp with a friend. We warned him to leave or we would pull together a defence team to slay them both. The did not head the warnings so we advanced on them. A fellow brother in arms Slayer_Thrent slayed them both. When new reached there settlement we were rushed by more. The three of us fought off four of them untill one was left. That one soon retreated into the woods and we thought it was over... things had only just began. They soon returned. After he massive one sided battle we were forced to retreat. Soon Thrent had a bounty on his head placed by one of the bandits. Everyone was after him due to a decent bounty of 1,900M. I have never had that many minas befor but i still defended him till we were over ran. Upon returning to our based later that night we found it was ransacked and only the objects Thrent had put a spell of protection on were still entact. Tho Gorn was beyond pissed once returning from a hunt to see the camp. After a heated discussion Thrent was exciled to never be seen again.

Day Seven

Our outpost has grew. We have now recruited five more freinds. We went out on a long journey to the far off cities which i can not seem to be able to name. I increased my knowlage of the sword and now belive i am a capable foot soilder. After coming back to base camp i found out we are now allied with the pathfinders and have a name for ourselfs. The Riverside Village.

[Riznam 10]

Day Eight

I have gained Gorn's permission toventure off and build a new outpost in the wilds. I had a small seed in the back of my mind telling me to rebel against this ruler or should i say growing dictator, but i ignored it. So i ventured of into the wilds armed with my first iron sword and a bunch of building supplies.

[Riznam 10]

Day Ten

I understand i missed day nine i was to busy fighting off creepers and bandits. I am crtically wounded from a stray skeleton arrow but i strive on. Soon to find a tree. I belive the elves call it "Darkwood" but it will work as a shelter for the night.

[Riznam 10]

Day Eleven

I found a lava pit close to some snow today as well as a deep tunnel going straight down. I decided to settle here only two days travel from base but a very nice place. I ventured to the edge of the snow and walked a few paces away from it to start a house. I made a simple one room four meter high house (4 blocks seeing as 1 block is roughy 1m i belive). The rest of the house will be under ground as Riverside Fort is. Tomorrow i will led more troops here.

[Riznam 10]

Day Twelve

I lead four more troops here today the journey was quicker and easy being we were all well armed and had numbers on our side. Monsters seemed to stray away from us when they seen us. It felt great to lead a small army into the untamed wilds. Upon arriving at the spot the two orcs went off to build there own underground home on the beach. I had never seen an orc build under a tree untill today. As Erlond started building onto the main base i set off to retrive Zen. We also found a way to get to base in under a day.

P.S. The thought of betraying Gorn grows as our forces here do.

[Riznam 10]

Day 13

I am switching my dates to digets instead of words due to the fact it is faster to scribe down. I found Zen and we progress into the wilds. This trip we learned the boats are the fastest way to get to base cutting the time down even more. Upon enter our new settlement Zen set offto build his own house next door and connect to ours via a mine. After constructing the new house and connecting the mines i set off to lower the floor and raise the ceiling. This too th rest of the day and most of the night.

[Riznam 10]

Day 14

All of the troops at this fort which we still have not nmed (Even tho GOrn told me what it was to be named) set down to a secret meeting. Me and Erlond had already spoke of the plan and it was time to iform the rest of our forces. There is no rank list here by the way we are all equals under this roof. Upon the rest of our brother arriving at the main mine we spoke of a CIVIL WAR. Gorn must die, yes the seed of currption has grew into a tree. After all of us agreed on the plan it was now time to set it into action. We armed ourselfs some in chain some in iron most in leather. We knew we were out numbered so we planned for a sneak attack at night fall. We soon set out to exicute the plan.
