Limits.

We traveled further north for few more days . The past few days were quite intense . We encountered a group of bears that numbered over 50 and that was not all . The group contained 20 black bears as well as 5 silver bears . It was one of the strongest animal packs we encountered so far .

We obviously tried to run but the bears gave pursuit . We had to fight some of them in order to decrease the numbers and make the bears retreat or at least give up chasing us . We killed 2 silver bears and about 10 black bears but we left the normal brown bears alone as they posed the smallest thread . After about an hour of fighting and pursuing, the bears finally gave up but reluctantly . We were lucky that time and only escaped due to our past training .

After those couple of days, we decided it was time to change directions towards west . I wanted to go west as there were no dangerous areas in that direction, at least according to them map I had . One day of traveling later, we found ourselves at the top of a tall cliff . I saw no immediate way of traveling down as the cliff extended for as far as I could see in both directions . More forest grew below the cliff but the air seemed different in this parts of the forest . The air was more damp . Another peculiar thing was the horizon, it was shrouded by fog the further west one looked .

I wasn"t sure where the path in front of us led but I wanted to try and descend down this cliff . I asked Sh.e.l.ly "Do you want to go down?" but Sh.e.l.ly looked down towards the bottom of the cliff and took couple of steps back while shaking its head . "Sh.e.l.ly is probably scared of heights . I"m not entirely fearless either but what I meant, was for us to find a path, not climb down" I thought . I then said to Sh.e.l.ly "I didn"t mean to climb down the cliff but find a way to go down without climbing" .

Sh.e.l.ly looked at me and seemed to think about it . After a while of thinking, Sh.e.l.ly nodded its head . I said "We should go towards the southern direction then and find out where the cliff ends . Or maybe we will find a path down" . Our new destination was set and so we traveled alongside the cliff towards the south in order to find a way of getting down .

We traveled for a whole day and rested during the night . We would hunt for food and play around to enjoy our time whilst traveling . Like this, a week pa.s.sed and we encountered something new . It was a plant but also kind of an animal at the same time . I didn"t know how to categorise it but the plant we saw was quite tall, as tall as human .

I noticed that the plants were rooted to the side of the cliff but after examining them for a while, I discovered that the roots started to move and together with the roots, the plant also moved . When I saw this I was left baffled . "How is it possible for these plants to just simply move as if they had legs" I thought .

When I saw this I was left baffled . "How is it possible for these plants to just simply move as if they had legs" I thought .

These plants were not carnivorous, this meant they didn"t eat meat . They got their energy elsewhere . I said to Sh.e.l.ly "Let"s stay here for a bit, I want to study those plants in greater details" . Sh.e.l.ly didn"t mind it as we were on holiday anyway so it didn"t matter if we moved towards south or stayed in one place for a while .

I tried drawing the plant in my notes as I never saw it . When we started the journey, I decided to start a journal of all the creatures and plants we met on our way . This would be filled in with details such as the characteristics but also skills for combat or defence and behaviour . I wanted to make something similar to what Nick accomplished with all his recipes . I wanted to create a book of all the animals and plants we would encounter, with detailed descriptions and characteristics .

The plant had a very long stem that was green in colour while the roots were brown, almost the same colour as the cliff they were attached to . At the top of the plant, there was no flower but something that looked like a green fruit . It was not its mouth, I studied the plants and the fruit at the top never opened nor had any holes .

After some more studying, I found out that the plants moved because they extracted something from the place they were rooted . When the source of their food was gone, they would simply move a bit further and stay still for couple of days . I didn"t know what those plants were absorbing . I could only guess that it was water but then wouldn"t those plants have more water in the forest? Maybe it was because the forest was not a safe place for these plants . The cliff"s face was much more secure location for these plants to thrive so why move somewhere else, even if they could move .

I wrote all these points in my notes . I didn"t know if these plants had any names but I decided to name them myself . I did that for anything we encountered that was new and not in my notes . "I shall call this plant Cliff Walker . This is a good name and appropriate for this type of plant" . My notes also contained other things we encountered . Such as wolves and all the variants we encountered so far . The bears were there as well as boars and spiky creatures .

Although I started those notes not too long ago, I already had 8 entries . I had the bear entry with the variants which were either black or silver . Each type had a specified behaviour, skills as well as habits that I recalled about them . There were also wolves and all the variants we encountered so far . The boars had the same thing going on but we only managed to find one variant which was yellow .

The other entries were, spiky creature which I named as Spikey Mouse . Then there were the Large Hornets with their huge hives that occupied most of the tree . I also added in the furry deers into my notes and simply called them Furry Deers . There was another animal we met but for a brief time . It was a black caterpillar looking creature we encountered while looking for Haze Flowers a long time ago . I didn"t know much about that creature besides its aggressiveness, the ability to hide below the ground and that it had a very st.u.r.dy body .

I decided to name that creature Haze Caterpillar because we found it near Haze Flowers . And the most recent entry was the Cliff Walker, the plant that could walk on the cliff"s face . The notes I had were a bit messy so I decided to organise them a bit .

I wanted to put them in alphabetical order but then decided against it . "I"m the one who gives them names, so the order of my notes would have to change too often" I thought . Instead, I came up with a different idea . "I will just order them from the 1st one encountered to the last" I said out loud . This way, the order wouldn"t have to change at all . The first creature I encountered, would be 1st on the list and so on . It was the easiest to keep the track of and the order would never change as the new creatures would be added as the last in the list .

I ordered the notes and thought "Right! Nick named his books after what they were, of course with some added personality . I also want to give my notes some fancy t.i.tle" . I then started to come up with a t.i.tle that would be suitable for my notes .We traveled further north for few more days . The past few days were quite intense .
