It stopped. One early morning, man woke up, to no sun in the sky. For reasons beyond explanation, the sun ceased to rise in the sky and only the moon remained to glare at this world. Over time, 99% of life as we know it died off, only few creatures that managed to adapt to the never ending night still live and struggle against are worlds curse. What happened to the sun? what force of unimaginable evil could want this for us? How will we live without the light? It is up to you, to take on the great mysteries that have doomed are world. Are you prepared?

Well in that case I spell in the dirt "Gone out for water." I then sink my roots into the ground to try to detect which way the water it by testing what part of the ground is the most moist.

(food and level up's) You pass by rip on your way, you wave to him and continue on, you pass my lots of grass and sticks that you may pick up (only 1 your inventory space is "1" otherwise you reach the lake. The water has turned purple, and fishbones surface the acid pool. Looming trees black as coal dip into the water they look like they've been burnt.
Name:Tanner oak Race:Mendor Level: 1 Health: 4/5 PUL: 1/5 Inventory: Empty Location:forest Language Log:Wind, Grunt Dungeon Log: Party:none
If the water is acid I guess that I shouldn't drink it, but to test to see if I can drink it I splash some water on a smaller tree that isn't burnt, and I watch to see what happens.
Name:Tanner oak Race:Mendor Level: 2 Health: 5/6 PUL: 6/6 Inventory: Empty Location:forest Language Log:Wind, Grunt Dungeon Log: Party:none
You place one of your branch hands quickly into the water OUCH, your branch burns causing you to howl (-1 health) you don't manage to splash anything anyways. This water is definitely contaminated, you would imagine its the fault of the night.
