Journal Entry - Volume 2 - Chapter 3

Dear Journal,

Ember led me to a small, walled town. The sentries were suspicious of me, but took her at her word. I don't think she wants to eat me, but... in any case, I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth! Okay, that was a terrible pun!

She took me to the Town Hall to meet their leader, a strange and somewhat senile old unicorn named Mythic Honor. Apparently he's very skilled, what with being the mayor and town blacksmith. He asked Ember and I to retrieve beetle chitin for food and materials to make me some armor. Armor... never thought I'd be wearing THAT!

We hunted, returned with our haul, processed the bugs and went to supper. It really isn't too bad! The other members of the tribe didn't seem to enjoy it much. But I suppose if that's all you had ever eaten, it would get old fast!

After supper we sat with Mythic Honor and chatted as he worked on my armor. I voiced my desire to escape and was advised not to try it, due to the demons that hang out by the gate! There has to be a way out of here! While I'm sure Twilight and her friends would eventually find a way to get me out of here, I don't exactly think I want them here! This place really is terrible!

Try to make the best of a bad situation. Whining and complaining will not help!
