Chapter 8
Even though the snake is getting devastated, it does not flee. Ten arrows in, I can tell the snake monster is getting worn down. I am shooting stronger arrows, and I myself am stronger than before. Before I know it, I've already shot twenty arrows at the snake monster, all of the hitting. I feel like such a cheat, hiding in his tree, but that's the snake's fault, not mine.
After two hours and all of my arrows, the snake monster is dead. Not only that, I got something special from the encounter.
>**Level-up!**
So, that's cool. I guess I'll use my stat points. I could do another five into strength and get stronger, but dexterity is staring at me like that. I could get.. limber? Flexible? Eh, I'll just go with strength again.

With some pretty dope new strength stats, I go inspect the giant snake. I try to add the snake to my inventory, but it feels a lot harder than other things to add. Its name is a Black Mountain Snake. Neat. There are some really big teeth inside the mouth, but I leave them there without touching them. I'm sure they're poisonus or something.
Day number twelve, and I already killed the huge snake monster. I think I'll investigate more into that cave later. Or not, I still don't have fire. Maybe the sounds of fighting scared off the hares, but my traps didn't catch anything. Without much to do until the next shop day, I practice with my bow. I have the Archery skill, so I don't need to practice, but I think I will get better somehow if I do practice. I wasn't very good at trapping when I first started, but now I'm pretty good at it.

After a whole day of practicing shooting with the bow and collecting some more berries, not leaving the area of my currently explored minimap, I return to the tree. As I wait high in the air, I think about the cave. As I eat berries in the tree, I wonder why I haven't needed to go number two.
In the deep dark night, the familiar sound of snow crushing can be heard. Like, shit! I thought I killed the snake, so there must be more of those monsters. I look around, and I don't like what I see. At least four more of the black mountain snakes are slithering through the trees. I only have 84 remaining arrows, which is enough to kill one or two of the snakes, but I can't kill them all.
Instead of trying to kill the snakes, I wait until morning. Day thirteen, one more day until shop opens. In an effort to raise money, I explore some more. If I can find something to kill with my bow, that would be great. To the west, like aways, lays the mountain and the cave, so this time I travel south.
As I travel, I come across a depression in the snow. I take my shovel from my inventory and start to dig. There might be something cool underneith, but I was left disapointed. It was just a small stream, somehow unfrozen. I cover it back up with snow so hopefully it won't freeze and I continue on my way.
An few hours in, I spot my first sign of life. A big bear! The thing is massive, and could probably kill me if I don't kill it quickly. I take out my bow and ready an arrow. I aim for a few seconds, and then I release. VROOM! The arrow flies, and sticks right into the bear! I get another arrow out of my inventory and VROOM, hit it again. Fuck, this bear is durrable, and it doesn't take much damage from the two arrows. The bear charges at me, but I take another arrow and shoot it in the face.

Dead bear is dead, and I put it in my inventory. I could probably make a baller cloak if I had a tanning skill, so I might get that next shop day. After killing the bear, I return to the tree. I can probably sell it for some nice money, so that's nice. If I can't I will keep it an make a cloak.
Night of the thirteenth day, I wait in my tree. I just need to wait until the shop opens up, and then I can go to town on those Black Mountain Snakes. Before going to sleep, I check my inventory and stats.

Wisdom And Wolf
When I was twenty one I bought my first motorcycle. My only motorcycle. A Harley Davidson XLX, Sportster. Her name is Rohdindae, it comes from the Silmarillion and loosely translates to Horse of the Silent Shadows.

We went all over this side of the Mississippi together. To places long forgotten by progress or filled to their capacity with humanity. Interesting word humanity, it means all off human kind in one definition, generosity and compassion in another. How often these two definitions are at bitter odds with the other, is something to be seen. These words are a mash up. Tales of the road. The people I met, stories I listened to, and the loves I saw grow, all find themselves here, mixed within these pages. From Maine to Mobile and all the places in between, where people still, somehow, cling on to the good fight. The only fight worth fighting.
