UHC-S7-404cave challenge



Day 9

It may have been a short time but I feel like I have achieved loads in this challenge during my time underground.The surface has been contaminated by our incessant needs and now we only have two choices 1) if your lucky and rich you can go into outer-space but if your like me 2)Your poor you go underground and try to survive.

So here we are sixty feet underground running, hiding, building & surviving the extreme conditions of this supremely dark cave.Follow me on my adventures as we carve out this strange incandescent cave to our needs.





I've been in this cave for quite some time now and I have gotten around to finally making a much needed tree farm.I need doors, trapdoors fences and even my tools need wooden sticks so this farm is a much needed addition to the family.
With the sweat on my brow and the blisters on my hands I take this opportunity to get some work done around.


I might be old
I might be tick
without a pole 
we ain't got no pick.


Time waits for no one and yet as I stand in this eerie cave It feels to me as though time has come to a stand still as I stare into the complete black the veils mine eyes from the underworld in-front of me.I turn my back to the darkness as I return to my tree farm.





Day 11

"Eureka" was all I could think off as I finished the much needed tree farm:I knew deep down that a tree farm was vital to my survival as I would need wood to make Door's, Chairs,Tables,Beds and many other useful items such as Swords, Pickaxes and Hoe's.



All that was needed now was for the saplings to bare fruit.Since I have been down here in the dark I have become ever more so nervous and apprehensive.There was a few incidences were I was attacked by what can only be described as member-less creature with feet and it was a dark green colour.But that was not the scariest part of my encounter with this animal, it was the fact that this creature commits suicide by explosion if you get too near it.
     All the more reason for my urgency to finish the tree farm.

Nothing can see me,
nothing can hear me,
nothing is near me,
from the darkness it stares at me.

From nothing comes all,
from a stairs to wall,
from nothing to a tree,
and a door to save me.

It's been a while as I was lost and afraid in this darkened room, No this darkened cave.Long I have looked through every nook and every cave,as I hear water splashing within this hollowed grave.Now it has come the time has just arrived, take one look and you may be surprised.Enchantments are here they are very near so to blend it with water which I hold dear.You will see what I mean if you are keen, just step through my portal to the world of the mortals.


The portal is here
