This is really interesting.
You'll probably complete it when I'm asleep though. Shame for me I guess. Ah well, that's what the logs are for.
If it makes you feel better, I wrote and posted posted the first logs after I arrived at the equator. I am writing from memory and screenshots. and nobody was online :/
Andrea, I think you'd make a very good LPer.
written LP, at least/ not sure what you're like for a video.
Thanks!
Considering I have no microphone, I guess a video would be quite boring
last time I livestreamed minecraft, I had to use signs to speak with audience.
besides, I get bored quite easily. I still have an abandoned and unfinished RTD game on this forum
Day 5As I guessed, the jungle is soon over and once again I find endless plains in front of me to cross.
Yesterday's Kapok trees are still the only ones I found, besides fruit trees. even grass species, at a closer examination seem closely related to those that can be found near Mountainhome.
I believe that there might be a point in which the 2 continents are much closer, somewhere. Animals must have crossed it, carrying seeds of fruits and grass in their intestines, but the inedible and immobile treescouldn't spread reach the other side of the sea.
I begin to see the shapes of some mountains on the horizon. I hope that they won't force me to deviate from the shortest path; today I should arrive roughly within 2000 Urists from the equator, and I have no intention to delay the end of the journey.
I entered the mountainous region and I am overjoyed. Not only the path isn't blocked, but some of the mountains are of such magnificence that they leave me stunned. The very bones of mother Earth poke out of its thin skin , a majestic jaw swallowing the ground. A tower of rock so mighty that it could be Armok's seat in this world. I'll call this monument of granite "Armok's throne".
On my way back, I'll camp here and do a geological surey. Now, however, I can't afford to stop, not even for such a spectacular display of nature's beauty.
This region keeps showing wonders beyond imagination. not much farther southward than Armok's throne, I find myself under the watchful and stone cold gaze of a giant guardian.
this mountain's remarkable resemblance to a dog is most likely a truly wonderous coincidence but were it in a more populated area, tools and masons would be my first thought.
I shall call this region "Valley of Giants", and the aforementioned mountain "Silent Shepherd"
further down, on the southern edge of the valley of giants, I find 3 peaks merged into a single chain. Its name shall be "Wraith", as a ghost is what its shape reminds me of.
despite the dreadful name, this is where I'll spend the night. A scientific mind doesn't fall prey to superstition and night is falling once again. an accurate reading of the sextant tells me that I am now just slightly less than 1000 Urists from equator; tomorrow is the great day.
note: now that screenshots are posted... am I crazy or is that mountain a very good imagine of a german shepherd? It is nearly perfect. at least from that angle.
also, I totally want to settle Armok's throne
