To those who may read this,
It's been approximately five days since I woke up in this world. I have not yet gotten in contact with any one of my original place of residence, I assume my journal has yet to reach it. That, or it is simply not possible for it to reach Earth through this app. I will continue my attempts to come in contact with my original world, though.
For two days I've been living in a cave I had found close to the spot where I woke up in. I have the basic skills and knowledge to survive in the wild for a few days, but not in long term. Some plants are similar to those on Earth, but more plants are entirely different. It is too risky to try to eat the plants, hence I left them untouched.
I have created traps to aid me in gathering food, it appears the creatures in this world aren't accustomed to them, they were easy to catch. The taste of the animals here is exceptional, they taste pure and untainted unlike back on Earth.
Due to my lack of proper survival expertise, I had decided to leave the cave and start finding any form of civilization. The wilderness in this world spreads on for miles and almost seems untouched. It seems like those who live here do well in keeping nature intact and unscathed. Nature here is completely unlike that on Earth, everything here is way more massive and colorful. There are types of (what I assume are) trees and plants here that I've only ever seen in video games or fantasy movies. However, as I traveled through the lands I came across many peculiar sights. Old and broken down temples and/or buildings, weirdly formed trees and mountains, graves, and more. I assume these are remnants of old wars, the way some pieces of the lands are structured leads to such assumptions.
I too realized during my travels is that many of the structures, plants, and animals here are related to the element water. There are many lakes and rivers, and water floats around the sky like clouds (but lower). It rains more often here than that what we're accustomed to back on Earth. I assume this has to do with the large amount of water around the land.
Fortunately, yesterday evening I managed to find civilization. Surprisingly, the city I came across is much more modern than I had anticipated. In fact, it seems like they are much more advanced here than we are. The city has a greek styled architecture and is, just like the nature, massive in size. Every structure and device has a magic touch to it like they don't use electricity at all but use magic energy instead. I wonder how it works, I intend to find out.
Their cars are also structured differently than on earth, they have no wheels and hover above the ground. I assume they run on magical energy as well, which explains how clean the air feels and how bright nature is. They never ruined their planet as we did, they found a way around it.Below the ground (some places on the ground being transparent) is a type of tunnel for water creatures to pass. Almost every building is adapted so that water creatures can enter them and join alongside the creatures that walk on the ground. I'm truly amazed at how adapted everything is.
To add to my previous sentences, it appears that the creatures/people here come in various shapes and sizes. What baffles me more than anything, though, is that humans don't exist here. Instead, humans are replaced with, what looks like, elves. The elves here look different from what we see elves, though. They come with markings on their skin, animal-like feet, different colored freckles, all types of hair colors, tails, and more. They look truly divine.
Of course, as I mentioned, the 'elves' aren't the only creatures walking around. Some creatures are a mixture between the 'elves' and the animals I came across in the wild, while others are human ( or elven) sized versions of the animals, walking on two feet and communicating like anyone else. I've seen creatures with wings, long tails, horns, and more than I could ever imagine. There are many types of creatures walking around, but I won't list them for now.
The way the citizens here dress is completely different than what we view as normal. The style of clothing is, in a way, over the top. Capes, armor, extremely detailed pieces of clothing, all types of jewelry, and more. It somewhat reminds me of fantasy games. Although looking around, everything here seems over the top. All that's created here is created with high detail and made to look aesthetically pleasing and eye-catching. It is a nice change of pace compared to the bland and cheap way of human creations back home.
Though, their way of dressing has made me stand out in the crowd completely. As soon as I realized that humans don't exist here, I wore my hood up and remained as hidden as possible. No one has found out yet, I'm not sure what they would do if they found out about me.
This is all the information I can present to you for now. I will try to find a place to lay low for the evening, I will evaluate my options in the morning on what to do next. I hope to come in contact with someone on Earth soon, though I won't keep my hopes up for long. I must look ahead or else I won't find a way back home.
Lastly, I discovered the name of this world/planet. They call it Lunae.Respectfully,
Fabian Elrod
