« on: September 26, 2025, 01:07:14 PM »
The Islander Witch traveled in deep winter from her hut at no-tribe land between Islanders and Driik, to far east and north to lands of Kaumo on quest task to hunt for precious Kaumo furs. She wandered up and down those Kaumo lands for a day, she wandered up and down those lands for a night and another day. And lo and behold: she encountered mighty squirrel on her mighty spruce. She took her bow and unwielded ski stick and fired blunt arrow at fearsome squirrel up on her high tree. And squirrel laughed at pitiful witch because her arrow flew past and broke, hitting another spruce. And so the witch fired arrow after arrow and threw rock after rock at squirrel, the epic battle went on all morning and all afternoon till squirrel was exhausted from jumping from spruce to spruce and fell on the ground and witch took axe and beheaded it with one blow.
What a perfect UnReal World moment. It encapsulates the entire spirit of the game: the grand ambition of a long journey, the harsh reality of scarce game, and the sheer, ridiculous desperation that leads to an all-day, epic battle against a creature that weighs less than your boot.
