Inferno (A Terraria Calamity Story)

Heatwave

It's been a while since I've woke up here. About 3 months to be exact. I have managed to complete gold armor which is surprisingly lighter than I thought it would be. I also now own gold tools. Most of the three months was spent mining, I doubt you would want any more of an explanation than that. As I explored though I have found a desert and a strange purple place. I plan on exploring the desert soon but I need to figure out how to use my new staff made from a gem called topaz. I made it yesterday and have yet to master using it. If only I had someone to teach me how to use it. Andrew hasn't been able to help me, he doesn't seem the magic wielding type anyway. And even when I do get it to work, it's after hours of trying. I head into my new personal house I had finished around the beginning of the 3 months. I put my staff in my dimensional pocket which seemingly has no end. And I start heading to the desert. As I reach the desert I am greeted by an overly aggressive vulture trying to attack me. I kill it quickly with my gold sword and proceed further into the desert mapping the lay of the land. I'm attacked by overwhelming heat as I proceed farther into the desert. I'm suddenly attacked by a group of creatures, about 3 of them. Each of them larger than me, their large mandibles trying to grab me. One charges towards me nearly knocking me off my feet, before another one charges at me. I block it with my sword, but get charged from the side, knocking me to the ground. As another one charges at me, I grab a bow from my pocket and shoot it in the head. The arrow pierced it's thick exoskeleton killing it. The other 3 quickly scurry off noticing their dead brethren. I lay on the burning sand in pain. As I lay my hand on the mark which I was hit, I felt a thick sticky substance. I look at my hand to see it had been died crimson with my blood. One of their mandibles must have scraped me. I haven't notice because of the adrenaline. As I stand back up I look over to the antlion, and rip the mandibles off it's body and put them in my pocket. I drink a healing potion to help heal the wound and start heading further into the desert. I'm hoping I won't have to deal with any more of those creatures, probably won't be as lucky as I was. I arrive to what appears to be a while in the ground. Naturally I did the best thing I could of done and stay away from the pit. Nope I jumped in, as I land I hear screeches from around the sandy cave. I look around to see a bunch of white gel like things. Suddenly as I go to inspect it. A bunch of small white creatures pop out. I kill them easily and turn around to see what looks like the creatures from before. It's much larger and looks way stronger. In self defense I go to hit it with my sword, when I suddenly feel a painful yet familiar shocking feeling. I recoil back and grab my bow. I began shooting it in the head several times. It resists many shots but I manage to kill it. I rip out the mandible of it. It shocks me as I pull it out, but I hurry and shove it in my bag. "This place must be the best of those things." I say to myself. Using a rope I manage to climb out of the nest. I don't want to deal with any of the creatures anyway. As I reach the top I stand face to face with what I can only assume to be my new worst nightmare.
