Y'all I followed this harmless-looking horse (I think) and found a river and there was some kind of shiny fish in there. I'm starting to think it's a trick of the lighting. The deer wasn't shiny, but it did have a horn coming out of its forehead. It might be a unicorn
I am too afraid to believe my own eyes and also because our senses lie to us all the time. I might also be hallucinating from malnutrition or poisoning or something.
I was really hungry so I caught a few different kinds of fish and I know half of you have criticised me for being super sheltered but I still appreciate the help in identifying what types of fish these are. I don't think any of them are pufferfish right? Or any kind of fish that I need to process properly first before eating.

I mean, I ate them already so it might be too late, but I was too hungry to post and ask first. They were pretty tasty, felt like I'd regained quite a bit of energy from eating them. Must be full of omega-3 fatty acids or whatever.
Also, I didn't really think about it until now but my phone is somehow not running out of battery. Like it's just permanently at 100%. And my phone's old. I charged it when I went to bed but like. How is it that it's still at full charge after almost 3 days? It usually dies after maybe 4 hours of reading web novels.
To those who let me know that these berries and shiny birds have never been seen before and that I may have discovered a new species: thanks! I'll direct the scientists back to around this area once someone has rescued my dumb ass.
To those who let me know that the PhataShop of the berries and shiny birds are very good and that I am roleplaying because these things can't possibly exist: also thanks! I must now contend with the idea that I have been kidnapped and abandoned in another world, and can only pray for immediate death because I have neither a system nor a god who has told me what to do.
I did what @beebeeb0mbeebee suggested and put like a bunch of Xs made of twigs so rescuers could trace my steps. I also succeeded in making fire by combining all your advice, but is the fire supposed to be bright blue? I know if you add chemicals to fire it can make pretty colours so maybe that's what is happening. I just didn't think it would happen from basic forest stuff.

Anyway, I roasted the fish I caught in this fire. Wish I had some salt or MSG haha
Guess it's good to get some exercise or whatever. I've basically just walked nonstop as long as I'm not sleeping, mostly skirting along the river since y'all said that was a good idea. I almost feel like a game of Ribbit Plays Pikaman.
As for sleeping, I've just been napping under big trees when I can find them. Now that I have a water and food source I can establish some kind of routine in the evening, I guess. But before that, it was just sleeping if I got tired. There's been a lot of discourse going around the posts about sleeping at the bottom of a tree versus inside the tree but it has been settled by one simple fact:
I can't climb trees.
Thanks again for keeping me alive, guys! Praying for rescue soon or I may be forced to adjust to living in another world lol
