| Not sure why I've been tasked with leading a new expedition to | |
| what has been kindly described as a 'hell hole', nor am I sure | |
| why I decided to go along with it. Though, there was mention of | |
| strange and never before seen metals and everything else was | |
| kind of a blurry haze after that. So, now it's to making the | |
| best of the situation. | |
| Fortunately, I've got a group with some pretty varied skills, | |
| certainly enough to get a rudimentary outpost set up with our | |
| base needs with the supplies we're being provided. After that, I | |
| was told they'd find more willing ponies and send them to aid us | |
| if they deemed things sufficient enough. I have no idea what | |
| they mean by that, but at this point, I'm assuming food and the | |
| like. And still alive. They didn't say that, but it was kind of | |
| implied. | |

| Been travelling for about a week or two at this point. Haven't | |
| been attacked yet. Actually met some... locals? Considering the | |
| warnings they gave us about sticking around, I have doubts they | |
| stay here, but we're well equipped. I figure, couple more days | |
| of travel, and begin setting things up. Any more than that and | |
| we might risk the food and water running out before getting a | |
| source in place. | |
| 15th Granite 250 | |
| I don't know what to call them. They looked like alicorns, but | |
| there was something unnatural about them. It's hard to describe, | |
| something you just know upon seeing them. They attacked, of | |
| sorts. Seemed more like a warning. That this was their domain | |
| and they didn't want us to stay. Unfortunately, the cart is | |
| broken to hell, so it's no longer our choice. The others seem | |
| just as unsettled as myself, but I was put in charge, and if | |
| those things are going to cause us problems, we'll have to be | |
| sure we're ready for them. | |
| Now... first thing's first. Shelter. All this damned snow is | |
| getting to me quickly. It was only supposed to be a brief time | |
| here, after all... | |

| It's cold. Damn cold. I think I'm the worst effected here, but | |
| none of the others argued when I said we need shelter as soon as | |
| possible. They were quite open to the idea of carving out a | |
| cave, especially considering the time it would take to gather | |
| materials and then to build the structures whilst we're all | |
| freezing our flanks off. Myself and Ryo have grabbed the two | |
| picks we have and set to work on making a deep cave, meanwhile, | |
| Schambart has offered his help in gathering some wood. | |

| No idea if it will be a problem, but something we should | |
| probably keep an eye on. As we began digging and exposing some | |
| ground not covered by snow, purple patches of some growth began | |
| to appear. Was told it's called taint creep. At the moment, | |
| seems benign, but am making a note of it here. At the same time, | |
| Thyme has noted this might mean there's more plants hidden below | |
| the snow, and we could possibly forage to help stretch our food | |
| supplies out. Might not be a bad idea since the river that is | |
| supposed to be here is solid ice, so fishing is certainly out. | |
| 20th Granite 250 | |
| Five days of digging. That's how long it's taken us to finally | |
| hit stone. And it was in the process of expanding the caverns, | |
| giving us space to set up some work shops. Whilst it is a little | |
| dark and dreary in comparison to actual buildings and homes, | |
| this will be a lot easier to defend in the event of an attack. | |

| I had to be reminded that the beds needed placing. I'd been so | |
| busy getting workshops in place, I'd forgot they'd been put into | |
| the temporary storage I'd assigned. So, a bit late, but we | |
| finally have a proper dorm area to sleep. And on that note, I'll | |
| go get my first proper night of sleep since arriving. | |
