"Today I woke up to yet another rustling noise, I know it's not in my head. Someone really is out there plotting something...Why else would I keep getting mystery materials everyday? Well I'm not going to think about that this early in the day. I found some sturdy rope and a bow down at the base of my tree. The bow's craftsmanship is impeccable and just like the dagger it was wrapped in gold and blue twine. It had the moon on one side of the sight window and a yin yang sign on the other. As nice as free stuff is I get an odd feeling. Nevertheless, I picked up the bow and put it on my back. Now I can give up on making a bow from scratch and make arrows instead. I used the rope to finish off my walls, now all that's left are the other 3 walls and roof. Take that island! Luckily I have been gathering materials for the walls and roof so it shouldn't take long to complete my new home. I went to check on my traps and to my surprise I caught a couple fish and a rabbit! I'll be eating good tonight, I wish I had salt so I could preserve the food I don't eat. I suppose If I dry the meat out and make jerky I could have leftovers. However, I would have to keep a fire going for almost 24 hours to cure the meat. Plus the smell might draw in predators, I'm not sure if making jerky is the best idea. If anything I'll use my leftover meat to bait more traps. I'd rather have too much food than not enough. I have gathered more materials and made arrows for my bow. I am confident that i have enough materials for a roof tomorrow."
