Evan has successfully survived his first day! Even if he didn't get a comfortable nap in, the morning sunrise is not to be missed!
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pPMZ2j64l2rcc0pMf5tfq5S51NNHY0h0locSJDNggAwMYX6k3fdctyga8L7cxtwfv7sJ62l9QX9j-Y4TWHO6LYgTkto2wuRWn4eUtCwTIyX2wcZOL6ZSUqO6isCk8hhX5/Screenshot-3.jpg
He misses it by a couple of hours anyway, oh well. At least I know it was a nice sunrise. Evan scans the water for boats, but it seems he's not in luck at the moment.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pyLXHQcCDlvSww1skNZjnCe6yyMZfOfd2tfwugjxDwMhVLnXbIRRgUoJ8jqfJsgx2k_VX7Nnb4dqt9NynI8ElIhUUfZPU9G2Muw57G_9GwnqW6KTyU2DoHZI4J_fnnsWX/Screenshot-4.jpg
Time to go get some breakfast! Hopefully there are some other plants out there he might be able to harvest. His latest victim turns out to be a nanner tree (which doesn't look like a banana tree at all except for the bananas), if Cuauhtemoc expects his help it's not going to be on an empty stomach!
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pk7NeN-U6MBS4QR-Yr_Sa84NaUdbAPt50KqVPYuEhCXu3wRQxL9WXqKg3QdlmIrEZAQ9OOg61rzsgoJ8cTSNHQv8TWZuUjX-9Zk_irGQYUa7GGrcdq7CgzeBBmA5Xerpo/Screenshot-7.jpg
Evan sits down to enjoy his breakfast and chat with Cuauhtemoc.
Evan: "Morning Cuauhtemoc, did you have a nice nap?"
Cuauhtemoc: "I don't nap, but I appreciate the gesture."
Evan: "Stasis then? Meditation?"
Cuauhtemoc: "Both of those terms are correct in a sense, it is difficult to explain."
Evan: "You seem to find a lot of things difficult to explain."
Cuauhtemoc: "It is something that you must experience to understand fully, like casting spells."
Evan: "I would rather not have to see what it's like to be trapped in a stone head for centuries on end if it's all the same to you. No offense."
Cuauhtemoc: "Don't you have something to do? I was enjoying my morning until you started squawking." :lol:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2prAGl6e3ubR3SU1SmO-WiOkeYjMly6E3N1nXz2Gg4dff3oLWB4IAg9Y396A80cSMN6bzECWSUu1ZheJCteJnxDkI6O7tfLVD305oq_yoYOv_0UplCOCTqpdlTHAPNX3h0/Screenshot-9.jpg
Evan: "Err, why yes actually I am going to make a hammock."
Cuauhtemoc: "What is a hammock?"
Evan: "Well it's something you sleep on. You'll see when I'm done."
Cuahtemoc: "Off you go then, try not to make too much racket if you would."
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p7sYc-ReCRMM3uATCVk1fiyfNzkx9KzEZkQawXlS94KynhUiF-8i5rhMFSEUIJODWTcBJyJ9DwMTr-W69ME063LOdpRDw3zSHv9OwBoXivGep-zyYo14ZESDFxIDgwYk0/Screenshot-10.jpg
Evan has a good idea of what he will do to make his hammock, he just needs to find the right materials. He is able to collect a candidate and searches for a spot to put it.
Aha, perfect!
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pTCpEx53z6GZGk8Ujenw-URXdoUXimjlRt04AdDUxyPKjCy436gm02ATlf673EwL2zw2iMbE15hf_Fpytiw9eU26IFUYvFngrRlYkiws0V4v6fmFK_NzZ8UuiLvZngvdX/Screenshot-5.jpg
Evan proudly presents, leaf hammock! (hard to see the 'vines' connecting it to the trees, but they are there.) :mrgreen:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p-7bWaiRQSwo3D9x8fpWnqwWc3u4gDXQKqrADHyZuJyWEsxg-fLvPMpBcCaiikYPd3f6j5BjKc9n2oyZ3W8PPZNmFKnHjP1Ve-mLfdRZdcNXHXPM5vg8XA7nHKzazprDj/Screenshot-11.jpg
Now all that is left is the applied force test! Or the "butt test" in this case. So far, so good! :D
Evan: "And this Cuauhtemoc, is a hammock!"
Cuauhtemoc: "Very interesting, you are supposed to sleep on that?"
Evan: "Yep, I think it's going to be perfect! I'm off to fish, wish me luck!"
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pPMPBeW1KKovpKhus7FjUc2DNafq3me2j6fd4U-L1qmIwUgvSKWzDEZGOOPzrPrcfTXOSdvu2r-XAiv0yMEK0-qolAYalY2iUlSE7eU-DKnZmc4219nGFKidAIrKPwQRw/Screenshot-12.jpg
He heads out to the spot where he caught the anchovies last time, maybe he'll be able to catch something a little bigger.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p7TrfJwo9KxXMc11BrseP3q10FDRtexhz6g9MPJu5RqiLSjks1qV9sniTERLkIP2GZ3ImzQ55aYR_sBPxxznnznUheHvwwgmEirv9i6bk4W76C_LB7UK3vGknGL6zT1zz/Screenshot-14.jpg
And it is a little bigger, in fact it's the biggest anchovy yet. Woo! :?
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2phzFgM6-njY_7LCecYFpz_BuLSurKn97ZFw27arGcrNn7o_XPAbWbyGbQA6wm48bKAv4_2KLNp085bRDsYeExlf6X_D7g-BiJwWOEi9vTGTm0x5WJWoqsOWkGJpArPnHh/Screenshot-15.jpg
Fire roasted anchovy for lunch!
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pklE08kxx9jJA4rHNtUPTuRJM7_BZ1spkbmEnmJS2KS0YPcxEXn3CI1vQ100RyGp3dcs_SpQxei1lxLzW_0BGDQnbQMqyU7Eji4bo5o0t6MpxDnl0Sn3KJ2uf5rnYD4DM/Screenshot-16.jpg
He's starting to stink pretty bad, judging from the icky green cloud that begins to rise from his pits! Evan's going to have to take a bath soon, one way or another.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p--mpmF6i6iOoJ9XABC7TxMZOEn_-4xO2iRRc0uhDJ3VpSqF1CC2e4eRHS3evymYxf-1hcuWIjOzEAQb7Ul0id4Tl-q7scyvPSxAMMlQW5sviPIsh9tdIlQAaXx8NdAwc/Screenshot-17.jpg
He finds a relatively safe place to take a swim and hopefully wash some of the smell off, going to be difficult without soap but it will have to do.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pWIi5l7YpRqRAg6YtPP8ZelbAZ1mHfBUlMRRJ4edQMaYZ-WVwk_V-a8JiMqOfsUtfwhB7pwoJfXXjcWv3dIbpF4zXBmKHZWGA6-8jWJ90OlN9C_lfXuAVm5SZGktWL-4z/Screenshot-23.jpg
Evan starts to have another bout of shark paranoia so he heads back in.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2plJp4ByWRRAXW1wK95MkJ-LAq7oXgu8oB7T35xhiK6YfprTPixJ1soL62RroVWnSycqNTCOdXol2-mde228g-6RmvuFsYCl9cOmxBcqlag1Olv8WekB_niuF963Ih8Tyl/Screenshot-24.jpg
Ahhh much better is it not? He may have discovered a new fragrance! He's going to call it Salty Sea Dog. Yarr! :roll:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pOqyfquKglIcAIV-SbiPsxnlu6DjvbSZm3rwflimug2e2GiIHcDq8GW335SFbFW_0tbxpx23NGY4BrPs7ryGKjzUKh0LQnuwQdj-1_GlmZzkYn4HGIMrFmxAUgp1W1WTy/Screenshot-30.jpg
Evan heads back over to the 'Water Rock' as he calls it to get a drink before doing some more wandering.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pZe0dmcGdgjr7iksk7qA4xmNknsm-L4WV4CjxYW5L04xyRigPhyJucca7pLZWUlXLv9yXdztXEuxxVsIz2mMQ8-_dXzvHTCHjVoAV5JSriAtuNjZ1EpY0KySD4XoNuqK_/Screenshot-22.jpg
He discovers a tiny patch of watermelons! Those will come in handy in the sweltering heat.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p_XtY2k_k99RCy_3NPTOalmIWt6feyoUxlu-Dzbz7oT3rTNybsiHO6nIwAJJYxTF7GRiUl0g1X__r0_frWZe2VFB3ItSeBrkQrX5M2--6h9rIB_oLYc_HfXImjKVnBTtl/Screenshot-6.jpg
So much talk of water has him needing to relieve himself. A nearby bush is helplessly recruited for the task. Hmm...there appears to be something else hiding nearby. Evan must investigate!
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p23jkKSt4ePicoLrrHVPXEJUEtqSaLsvcvtV2YFdrV8vfumfGPIoL28B37KcDakv5QxoWyHfu2ZIregXPuTxNN63Es86JDetPKb-jQo75QlSoacaZ5irfVptyQQNjU60R/Screenshot-19.jpg
Hooray! It's a treasure chest full of shinies!! :mrgreen:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2ptg8sjpJNAt5NQfX7-u2L4Za3LCehCt6UvZRJ9mBEgZg3hHuTqpBUmd43CeXN-30M4QJXTv-GGbA0LQnXOso8XQTKTZG9LkI9MM-prObZpmNG4GkNK3jDnT8sQAtdJqcb/Screenshot-20.jpg
He's very pleased with his discovery, even if it doesn't help him at all right now. Evan's going to make it to the mainland sometime...someday soon hopefully. :shock:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pVi0a1J_qqmfJCWAr6JXiJWjKQmhKw4IbT-VlBz3jbal5hAk9CilYbNeYkHB52ANm3OtlovBhKrCSdt1q_VrQbUlVRgBDvaojFUXZ5R9JSV0xguM9hLF0fbCQ8D8bEM-j/Screenshot-21.jpg
Evan visits the rubble pile he saw earlier and snacks on a watermelon thoughtfully. He'll think of something to use those materials for, he just hasn't decided what that might be yet.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pxs83-WwqItYCk8k8yCVi9f_9FRLt8IlRz1fnzkOak59cd5MGKY1gBj6rcsf-zSZnY510cAcFrxw_YwxPw0wEZBOcTv6ortV6jBBnif14OQsDR-w8mbI333nW0s9Spu-G/Screenshot-18.jpg
Now that he has a hammock, Evan thinks it's high time he moved his camp site a little closer.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pMasPj3AmyiDcp0Zmi7s6ubFAZfzkBq6YS3JDf_KQ9euAnEtYkxSwF4WWTH5im1gYnkX_ECeGu_ctvNDRttGUbLgnS4C1MCe1pkrZTplnqb0LbKlYfV3cEvQVskb0YdTz/Screenshot-31.jpg
Cuauhtemoc doesn't seem to mind, he's being a bit testy today though...or he's in his meditative stasis nap again. He's got the last box up there and all that effort has got him feeling a little peckish. Fishing time again!
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pGnh3bfhCIMiXpYdMZ9FrCe8gp_kRMF62g5AL3lf81tc_aAQPgT_pz3wdktJL63NWyfd7hSRflc2IReupZOOjDAqm8EzlX0oSXDsN8cjMbITvhTbuydx7LDs3F39Th8fj/Screenshot-32.jpg
Oh, well who left that there? A message in a bottle seems to have washed up on the shore. Perhaps he can use it to send an SOS to the...mainland. (If you catch the reference, give yourself a high five!) 8)
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pcTlE-GqNU1sBfFQMiQbmwENX8R9DHbGtLZT2zQstzMMkMP0vkjzDTb_B3tnLgNqcV2Wr0z0dOx5ERqJ2uwR-cRFkXy2UL6UiAfXc5BY-zudJYYaOVC9R26d3lh0KW_mf/Screenshot-33.jpg
Evan saw some fish in this area, so he gives it a shot. Apparently the sharks have the same idea though...he's going to have to reel his catch in quick if he wants some dinner!
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pkyY3f3AlosUDXqpIoYt_CPK1EXr7A4awKzCJILGxVgcHTyUoPnHmfSYd1bUo0FYEihDyVCl9lhmu4VVPq-gXv_GUt4bUPEhBgswYPTS-VyQEJuobQ-LCsu9a9Y8ijjZe/Screenshot-34.jpg
His eyes become wide with excitement, that thing is way bigger than an anchovy!! :P
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p7BoZDwRAfcPI_tlGky3Hvn3d9FQMGPijujTUJhnroeDiBZzYFumI_Hh-qmeSUBtNuynXpjumZF7w77kDScvzsKP8trCL8KwPzULuwaTL8SEFoWWS4RRcRrH72Sd25myj/Screenshot-35.jpg
It has whiskers. But it looks quite edible. Don't look so sad Evan, catfish are pretty darn tasty! :wink:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pMshndjlXFc550KrUGV0THBg2XOVfok8rKnk9aWny9ow26mtKDUv58B6XzHZiYXWX1BHkn8GXN1uJzb0UfQ9t8SWfJZ1a22fYItB1LhDnHBSnSEiPM5aTsNhnILcZePj4/Screenshot-36.jpg
He comes around soon and performs...the victory dance! :lol:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pwa9CJKRDRHg_A7EvDw0zIkgzk2QrtMlgXqdYA0FKktZX72y4jybiY-Hk4F4ahJs-diuykR1f_TaHP23WLKwvRB6He7CsyEuji_a3S-8bpom9ImdAtN1JIYaRiGIwyhAi/Screenshot-37.jpg
Evan races up the hill to drop off his catch and go collect some firewood.
Cuauhtemoc has been strangely silent, perhaps Evan has ruffled his feathers a bit too much with his earlier comment. Hrm. :(
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pakcdiX_kQWhH4wgryU4SjSz5-Xfua6-P1e3ndx_Fw5AY-72zsnWJVtnga1yILTGFfE_EaKbnsIQGXW6erUoUHppKaz4ZVzTFZaPmhGRA_HWdKyODvo_IZBhoEjlh7Ge2/Screenshot-38.jpg
It's time for the fish fry! It's starting to get a little crowded up on the hill.
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pXBiRdk4Tl9d1CroIAveSwXi4V7oi60459iGRJWg6blBaRsKlbR0GfAK0FqFWgd8ct6C4QTXFktIf-8nNtYI3RQp32xjYcCHIwHWJPPXVgpnc1Ze3wKAJd8-CQ1fFkPsr/Screenshot-39.jpg
Evan feels pretty bad, so he thinks it's time to apologize.
Evan: "Hey, Cuauhtemoc? Are you awake?"
Cuauhtemoc: "No."
Evan: "Haha very funny. Look I want to apologize for what I said earlier, it was rude of me and I'm sorry. If I can help you get out of there I'll try my best. Promise."
Cuauhtemoc: "I suppose that will do, apology accepted."
Evan: "Do you think you can do something about that chair? It's kind of in the way now."
Cuauhtemoc: "Hmm, but I like that chair."
Evan: "Pretty please?"
Cuauhtemoc: "Fine, but see if I give you any more chairs to sit on."
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pS_p2qTKEOj8Oj5UeEZNoeNY58ADQ0anvj4UjP0Ly9qOorHPuOqn3m3_XBOq-uKRD3uNWB36c4asS42l_S3GBdgM17ysrumOnPeFb7CG-vmOOTKidTmH-tmuLRisjyQHe/Screenshot-40.jpg
Evan: *with a mouthful of food*: "Mhank nhou." Roughly translated as 'Thank You'. :roll:
Evan: "You see this fish? It's the biggest one I've caught yet! We call it a 'catfish', but I've never caught one in the ocean. It's really tasty."
Cuauhtemoc: "I've forgotten what food tastes like..." (Awkward!)
Evan: "Oh. Uhm...anyway. So what did you do today?" (More awkwardness!)
Cuauhtemoc: "It's difficult to explain."
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2p81CE16LcyJsGaHgYJiryeh3ZU0i_DgGNLB9K9SGV-ry0vqK3Pnolz6NbR3VsdfjTt2wxPK4biKwLBbcceFgISSLXkYlbteZFuJm4kVayVUqengjASBC2nmHoyaxkq4AF/Screenshot-41.jpg
Evan: "Well I'm sure it was great. You know I really miss my girlfriend."
Cuauhtemoc: "What does this mean?"
Evan: "Err...my, woman. Her name is Esther. She's got fiery red hair and a smile that just melts my heart. I hope I'll see her again some day. You know I was going to ask her to marry me before I ended up out here."
Cuauhtemoc: "Ahh, love. That I do remember. If you can get me out of here I will help you find your woman as a token of my gratitude."
Evan: "Thanks Cuauhtemoc, that means a lot to me." :D
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pG1tDDQLUY_VK0WtXJvoJhd0Qgy3zZpTevaTtTg0kDCvsVL1lJYjlaSAUp7ZKIKhL7uqGoOVgFhJOMslb_dyg5CF1TD2cFT6Dgmu-NziOxrYWvuFDKZD4R8IyRaG_BPAg/Screenshot-42.jpg
Evan: "Well I think I'm done for the night, see you in the morning big guy."
Cuauhtemoc: "Yes, sleep well in your 'hammock'."
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pQVE-Yao8y614_5GaN-jSlBkyc1UkQdRdIv-40RebjuLMwwoJAXreaNKa2eBkkV2ZAP1bE07Wcntv8V6B5w3zgw1IKnpemNP2NAosBDfQYcsVhWXLlZIEjXOvna96DCCL/Screenshot-43.jpg
Turns out that Evan's hammock is pretty darn comfy! Maybe he won't wake up with a blanket of bugs this time. :shock:
https://63cfyq.sn2.livefilestore.com/y2pvcT2WIHTM37bWzEdHRKMPcNp39H21vOdTmIjhAQZAtnhemerEe5KMCCg6OgyW39iTbAglQrvyd17ZSy2xoBM8HaDQFYk9ueXazE0bT15QJzVXzSrZJzX8vWpVIr58tF8/Screenshot-44.jpg
And a complimentary overview of Plumbob Island, it happens to be my most favorite even though it's likely the smallest! :mrgreen:
