It's been 10 days since I started killing the weird creatures. I started to call them 'Kishans', cause they made that kinda noise when I'm near them...
Well I've been experiencing the life of a nomad for the past days! It has NOT been well.
Food is hard to find, and I usually eat the kishans' corpses as food...
And water is basically impossible to store, and food too.
I have to get as less hurt as possible, since I have no bandages or similar things to help myself recover.
The weather is... let's say unusual. It goes from California heat to Alaska cold...
It went from windy, to sunny, to lightning(no rain) to rai–
"Kri-shaaa!"
Jumping to the left, I see a red thing hitting the ground, a well made spear piercing the ground causing cracks to spread.
I attack him with my fist before jamming a knife inside of his neck.
"Pheewww, this is getting tiring..."
I sighed
I took back my knife which I got from one of these
And grabbed the spear.
you may be wondering about how these retards could make such well crafted weapons, right??
//Probably not...//
Well there are different tribes in this forest, which I think is mainly occupied by them.
Different ones wear different clothing, are stronger or weaker and have different weapons.
I have met 4 tribes so far, with many more wandering groups and loners.
The four tribes as I have named them are
*Drum Roll*
The yellow tribe, green tribe, pink tribe and brown tribe!
I named them on the spot, and also don't think they are worth more thought then that.
They get more advanced as it goes forward, yellow being the ones who first attacked me, and brown who have large settlements with shacks, animals, water, and even chiefs!
They have patrol squads, wood cutters, etc.
And during my 10 days of running around is 'circles', I found most of their locations, routines, etc. after observing them atleast 2 days for each tribe.
I also improved on my improvised stealth tactics.

My Stats increased pretty well.
Now, let's stop with the useless chitter-chatter!
I have a plan to wipe out the yellow tribe.
Sooo, they live mostly in and around a cave, and they take water from this small pond like reservoir that I don't know how water was there, maybe the rain.
Well I found out that the yellow liquid that leaks from there nape is actually a natural poison, and somehow they aren't resistant to it!
So I have been collecting the poison to poison the reservoir.
I also made sure that they only use this water source, which they do.
I also sneaked a peek inside of the cave and found wood everywhere.
Like everything inside is wood, the ground has wooden carpets, they cover the front by hanging the wooden carpets, and even just keep fire wood inside there.
And I also found out that the poison is highly flammable, like gasoline level.
You know where this is going, right?

[Third Person POV]
Nathan ran through the forest, holding a terribly made wooden bucket filled with viscous yellow liquid.
He weaved through the trees, stones and dodged krishans.
After running for sometime.
He quickly reached the water reservoir and started pouring the poison inside.
"Pheww, that was stressful"
Nathan had been running for 45 minutes straight, even though it should have been only 10 minutes but all obstacles in the way slowed him down.
It took sometime to finish pouring the poison, and he even thought go himself
'What if they come here while I'm doing this?'
But luvkily the liquid surprising faded into the tiny reservoir quickly, and Nathan hid all traces he was there.
Soon.
After an hour or so, krishans gathered and took the water in similar buckets as Nathan, some even drinking it.
"Krish!"
The one with the most gear gathered them and lead them back to their home, ready to eat another feast!
As they were marching back, some seemed slower then normal, some seemed slightly paler but he dismissed it as nothing.
Maybe they were just hungry! So he riled them up to run faster.
They sped up and some starting dripping with sweat.
Soon, he felt that the surrounding was warmer then normal, and that the sky seemed... gray??
He quickly noticed something was amiss and ran to his home, the tribes cave.
He left his group back there, hoping for the best.
Cries of children, wails of the elderly and the crisp sound of fire rang through his ears.
And when he finally reached the cave, he felt mortified.
A man wearing slightly torn clothes had a spear from an enemy tribe in his hands, slaughtering his kin in front of his eyes.
"Keeeesh!"
The tribe leader ran forth with his axe in hand, ready to kill the man who dared make an enemy of him, no... his tribe!
