Jack MacGaven's Profile

Hello my dear, dear friends!

I hope things are good on your side! My side certainly has brightened up by a lot!
I'm feeling good and healthy again and I'm out of the snow!

It took me a little while before I got from the horrid mountain, but here I am, on the other side, a live and well!

Some curious things occurred though. Lucky me it was nothing bad or anything like that, no.
My ankle was and still is a bit swollen, so I just bind it with some good bandages and went to hike to find water and herbs to make a good compress. However, I got a bit lost and side tracked one evening. I put up camp and just went to sleep. I did hear some things rustling and brushing about, but I didn't think much of it, since it sounded like a rabbit or a squirrel.

The next morning however, my fire was lit again, which I had put out before I went to sleep and the herbs that I would need lay right beside my head!

I was happy though, but it sure was creepy. Ever since that happened I kept my eyes and ears open. But I still can't find anything that would do such a sweet thing!

I've also been finding that the campfire I make is always lit again when I wake up, which is good for making breakfast, but still...It kinda creeps me out as well.
I'm going to set a trap and see if I can catch the culprit.


Love,

[FONT="Book Antiqua"]To my dear friends,

I sure hope that things are okay down town! Or rather better than I am doing at the moment.

Right now I'm sheltering in a cave in the mountain, the weather is horrible. Not only that but my health isn't the best as well.
I'm running a fever and I can barely go out to hunt or anything like that.
I think this mountain is cursed or rather the people who climb it. In the week that I've been climbing this oversized hill, I fell more than five times, sank into mud plenty of times and got stuck in a blizzard near the summit.

My arm is sore and I had several open wounds due my falls. I think one of them got infected, but I'm already too late to treat it properly and there aren't any herbs around here. The only thing I can do is try to rest as much as possible and move out once the fever is down a bit.
I am going to take the long way back, around the mountain. I don't want to go through this again...

The best thing I see now is the fire that I managed to start. And that I had some food saved, so I won't starve. I really need to move on though and I think I will tomorrow or the day after. The sooner I get away from this snow, the better.

The feeling that something is watching me still lingers as well. It's really bugging me, especially because I don't sense a human or something that is out of place....
Perhaps my mind is playing tricks on me, I guess that is what loneliness does to a being.

Love,

Hello my dear friends!

My second week is almost over. Lucky me. Things had been a bit more dramatic. The weather wasn’t all that great and that wasn’t really comfortable. The ground was very slippery and it was rather hard to find a dry place to sleep. I was lucky to find a small cave, which was occupied by a family of bats, something I didn’t mind at all.

I’ve been more at ease in the wilderness now. Knowing that there aren’t much predators around is quite nice, but I do get the feeling that something is following me and watching me closely. I’ve tried to see what it is, but I came back empty handed. I’m guessing that it’s just my imagination that wants me to freak out.
I hope you all liked my previous letter, by the way.
I’m quite well, I’m getting used to hunting and fishing, but I also started to recognize plants and herbs more quickly, which is quite useful.
Sadly I had to cut my hair though. A big part of it got stuck in some branches when I was setting traps. It was so knotted that it was faster and easier just to take my knife and cut it all off. It’s a big difference, but I do not dislike it. Perhaps I’ll keep my hair this way.

I hope that you all are well and that you are playing nice.

Love,

[FONT="Book Antiqua"]Hello dear friends!

The first week of my journey was rather calm. I expect more trouble from now on, because right now I have no living soul to help me if I'm in trouble.

I've been in the forest for a few days now, And instead of taking the easy route, I decided to go off road.
I really got the hang of it again. It's been so long since I've been on my own without anyone around to talk to. I believe my last expedition was 400 years ago.
I must admit, I feel lonelier than ever at the moment.

Other than that I've been well for the past week. The weather wasn't too dreadful, only a bit of rain. Which caught me off guard.
I had forgotten how slippery the forest grounds can be after a good day of rain...
Let's just say that my clothes aren't their original colour anymore and a bit muddy brown greyish.

I bet you guys want to know what happened...So, I'll just put my shame aside.
It was already starting to get dark, while I was still trying to catch me some food. The hare in question lead me to some bushes, thinking to be smart I leaped after it, causing me to slide down a slope, face first...
I was glad that there were a few bushes that broke my fall...
However, there is a sunny side to it as well. I foud a rather interesting coin, that piqued my interest and curiousity. [IMGright]http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x63/emo-ticon/coin.png[/IMGright]

I think that this is it for my adventure for now. I hope you all are well. And that there isn't much trouble.
