Personal Diary of TET
31 Feb 2006 I am known as TET. I abandoned my full name because of my father. I didn't want his legacy. I just washed up on a beach on an island. My head feels like its been kicked by a man with steel-capped boots. Incidently a man in large steel-capped boots lay dead next to me. I searche for a tavern for ages. It seems there are none on this godforsaken island. But there soon will be. I am now making it my purpose to spread the gift of alchohol to these settling adventurers. I hear there are also uncivilised natives on this island. I will introduce them too to the beauty of beer.
To help with my quest I have joined with the South Shartak Trading Company(hereby referred to as SSTC). Shartak being the name of this spit of land. I will spend the next few days gathering supplies and then it is off into the wilderness.

5 April 2006 I have gathered all the supplies I will need for this first journey. I set out North east from York, the village I washed up near. I aim to bring beer to the native village of Dalpok. I also bring a very special gift. A GPS unit. I will deliver one to each native vilage as a sign of good faith. A deer crossed my path and I hacked away at it with my machete. Unfortunately I am not used to fighting sober or on an empty stomach. I did not slay the creature. I wll try again when I have more energy.

6 April 2006 I slew the deer and ate as I walked. After a whole day walking I reached a lake and am resting for the night. The lake is a way point. This marks the point I should start heading North. Dalpok is at the most 3 days travel North from here. I hope these natives are friendly, and if they're not I hope they like beer. I find I can get on with anyone when they're comfortably inebriated.

8 April 2006 I arrived at Dalpok in good time. Delivered my supplies immidiately. But these natives don't look at all friendly. If I wasn't carrying my machete I'm not sure I would have delivered my beer. While in the the trading post I met an old friend I have known since before I can remember.
I stocked up on native goods while at the trading post. I shall trade them at the next outsider settlement I arrive at. While in Dalpok I heard that pirates had landed to the North West of Dalpok, about 2 days travel. After I have stocked up on native goods I shall head that way. I'm sure they have many treasures from their overseas travels.

15 April 2006 I have left Dalpok now carrying all the blowpipes and darts I can. I am not sure what they do but hopfully someone somewhere does. I left Dalpok heading North East, towards where the pirates are shipwreked. I have been travelling for two days now and seen nothing but wild animals. I killed several and have due to the practice am far better with my machete. I hope to reach the ship tommorow. If not then I fear I have gone in the wrong direction. Even if I do reach the shipwrek there is no guarantee these pirates are friendly. I may have to leave almost as soon as I arrive.
TET
20 April 2006 I arrived at the shipwrek and found the pirates to be surprisingly friendly. I found they carried very nicely crafted cutlasses. I stocked up on a few of these aswell as some rum and a couple of gems which are sure to fetch a good price. I have now left the shipwrek heading towards Durham to trade these native implements and some pirate treasure. While there I also plan to do some freelance work for the Civilized Hihgway Society. I also plan to do some hunting and get some practice with my machete. My skill has definitely improved with it.
