Clutching the grass damp from the tears still streaming from his eyes, he took a few minutes to try to calm down, 'I guess at least I will have strong bones when I get enough exp to reconstruct them.'
[Host, Please Focus on not dying, Grief will not kill you however the hunger left over from the healing or dehydration definitely could]
"..."
"Can't you give me abit longer?"
[No. it has been 15 Minutes 47 seconds since you were teleported back to this clearing get a move on.]
[... Please]
"at least you said please" jack grumbled under his breath. taking a stock of my surroundings I realised I had been returned to the clearing, Being just slightly after midday i had about 6 or so hours of daylight left to work with to... to uhh..."
"What i am supposed to do?"
[...]
"Surviving for now would be a good start i guess so water, food and shelter first i guess?"
[Ding!]
[Emergency Chain Quest Created: Survival]
[As a species ????? need several things to survive, of which Water, food and shelter being the most important. as such you must locate a viable water source and place for shelter.
When it comes to a making a dwelling the system recommends using this clearing as a base because monster naturally avoid it due to the battle that happened here long ago.
As for water there is a source 'nearby' toward the east]
[Objective 1: Find water]
[Reward: Choose a tool, Large water container]
"Well i guess that gives me a goal then East it is!" Jack Exclaimed then confidently walked straight ahead
[I said east host]
"Ah my bad to the right!"
[Nevermind]
[New Function unlocked: Mini map]
[A small map that hovers in the top Right of your vision with a small compass for the hosts convenience seeing as the host is 'directionally challenged'. this feature also comes with waypoints for once you find water. For example...]
[Ding! Current position Set as 'Home']
"Ahahaha... I knew this was actually North I was testing you"
[...]
This time waking in the right direction jack walked east feeling abit stupid, which to be fair he was.
{Some time later}
"So what am i gonna do after i complete this quest i wonder maybe settle down, make a nice little house, make a whole Museum of bones!"
As he walked he noticed the sound of water, somewhere ahead of him, moving around a tree so large it almost entirely blocked his view of what's ahead of him, Rounding the giant tree he saw a glittering light blue Stream about as wide as he was tall, approaching the bank he noticed some well worn looking paths that he assumed were from animals.. and lots of animals means predators... feeling a bit of fear he approached the water.
[Ding!]
[Quest Complete: Survival 1]
[Reward: 1x Large water container, Please choose a tool from the following]
[Axe, Shovel, Hoe, Garden fork, Watering can, Wheel barrow and Small forging hammer]
"Uhhh i thought i get to choose any tool"
[Correction any from the listed tools]
"Nothing cool? Nothing magical? I guess the axe then? as I'm gonna need wood and it can work as a makeshift weapon too!"
[Reward chosen +1 Axe]
[Chain Quest updated: Survival 2]
[Description ommited- Find food enough to survive today, Optional Find meat and use your Devour Skill]
"Ooo new objective anywho, Inventory!"
Jack said as he said as he tried to take out the water container by pressing the invisible screen
[Host just think about what you want to do pressing it won't do anything...]
"Alright alright, Why didn't you just tell me sooner! Right lets get this filled up then i guess" Taking out the container which just looked like a large square plastic water bottle with a tap pooped out of nowhere
"Oh neat kind of weird how it just appears tho but hey" Unscrewing the cap and dipping it into the water he slowly filled it up marvelling at how clear it looked, on earth they hadn't had clear natural rivers or streams in hundreds of years, despite their best efforts earths natural beauty has been ruined as the noticed too late what they were doing, so to jack it was a marvel, only at a little over 7000 years old finally seeing a clear blue stream! the light reflecting off the ripples in the water and playfully moving across the bottom of the stream...
Behind him he heard a sudden rustle and a Snap, somewhat ironically it was a twig breaking that snapped him out of his wonder as he realised something was behind him...
