Life in the forest isn't bad. The nuts from the Api shrubs last a long time, and there are plenty of mushrooms and bamboo shoots to fill Mii-Chan's belly. | Life in the forest isn't bad.

What fascinates me most are '''animal nests'''. From time to time, I find fertile eggs there, prized by traveling merchants. One morning an egg I had left on my straw bed '''hatched''' into a baby giant squirrel. I'm a little worried about how the jealous Mii-Chan will react, but I'm sure it'll grow to be a reliable companion. | |||

The summer sun bakes the sandy beach, and Mii-chan and the Ris-Chan are napping quietly beside me. I'm swaying in a hammock, a glass of Palulu juice in hand. | The summer sun bakes the sandy beach, and Mii-chan and the Ris-Chan are napping quietly beside me.

Life by the beach has its own charm. If you plate some cactus flesh and seaweed, it almost feels like a resort. With the leaves of Palulu trees, I can make simple dishes. | Life by the beach has its own charm. If you plate some '''cactus flesh''' and '''seaweed''', it almost feels like a resort.

There's rock salt too, but digging it out isn't easy. My old pickaxe can't even make a dent. But I don't plan on using impossibility as an excuse. I'll figure something out. | There's '''rock salt''' too, but digging it out isn't easy. My old pickaxe can't even make a dent. But I don't plan on using impossibility as an excuse.

Sometimes, I wonder if these letters will ever reach someone's hands, or if they'll just be left wither away, unknown and forgotten. | Sometimes, I wonder if these letters will ever reach someone's hands, or if they'll just be left wither away, unknown and forgotten. | ||

Tools like pickaxes have something called hardness. A pickaxe made from a tough material can crush even iron ore, but with a wooden pickaxe, unless you're incredibly skilled at mining, you won't even scratch the surface of ordinary stones. | Tools like pickaxes have something called hardness.

It's time to return to my forest base. If I use that basalt stone I've been saving for moments like this, I should be able to make a pickaxe that can dig through that rock salt. | |||

While exploring the beach, I found an ancient machine buried in the sand. A rare device that, when you insert a small box called a "'''cassette'''," plays a strange tune. Mii-Chan, startled at first, now listens quietly. | |||
I've also crafted a barbecue set. This beach has become our second base. Sitting by the fire, listening to ancient music, I wished for time to stop, if only for a moment. But a restless feeling deep inside won't allow it. I need to find the promised land. Where could it be? | |||

I wonder if anyone is reading my letters. If "you" are reading this, what could be the reason? Just passing time? Or did you pick it up hoping to find something? | |||
If you hold my diaries dear, do me a favor and throw them away. No, there's an even better way. | |||
When you need to get rid of accumulated trashes or junks, a '''hammer''' is best. By smashing them to pieces, you can turn them into something new. So, pick up a '''hammer''' and break my diaries. Smash them with all your strength. That way, these pages might carry just a bit more meaning. | |||
