Terrarian's POV once again:

     After driving for a few hours to long we finally arrived back at the base. For reasons I couldn't comprehend it was shaped in a star. It could simply be they think it looks good or there could be some strategical reasoning behind this. Who knows.

     I was mostly happy as I would be able to lay around all day instead of sit or stand around. Laying was better. The only down side being they brought more people with them back so there would be a higher chance for conversation. Worse of all they spoke a language I didn't understand. It might be worth learning it.

     Once we arrived inside of their compound I decided I would learn their language by myself. While it would not be as efficient I wouldn't have to talk to anyone which was a positive.

     I grabbed a few books on the language and brought them to where I slept. Opening it and looking at the books the language was easier then I thought. It was like an altered version of the language I spoke... what is the language I speak called? How do I not know this?

     Now more disappointed in myself then ever I decided it would be better to just learn this language and ignore how I don't know what my own language is called.

     By the time I had learned the basics if the language such as a few basic letters and a few simple sentences. It wasn't anything to impressive considering he spent all day on it but it was progress.

     I forgot to mention the look on the refuges face when they saw the fortress from the insides was priceless they all were beyond shocked. It was as if this was completely foreign...oh wait it is forgot I said that.

     It actually hadn't taken all day it was only around mid day so now I had nothing to do. I already learned enough of the language. It was annoying to have to learn a language from scratch.

     Realizing how hungry I was once my stomach growled I went to go find some food. I didn't really remember where to get it so I aimlessly walked around looking for some. I had many opportunities to ask someone but it would of taken to just effort to ask them.

     I should of asked someone. It feels like it has been hours of walking around and yet I can't find where the food is. Looking at the sky I saw that the sun barley moved making me realize it hadn't been a few hours and really been a few minutes.

     They had a like roll call of some sorts where all the refuges introduced themselves. The only thing that caught my attention was when that old dude mentioned he was a sorcerer, he reminded me of the Wizard.

     After what actually was a few hours I realized there was a designated time to eat. This whole time I had been looking for something that did not exist. Quite soul shattering.

     I got my food and sat down because if I stood and ate I would be a weirdo. Only after I hit my helmet with the food did I realize I had to take it off. Taking it off I finally began to eat.

     The food was actually pretty good. I could still make better though, after I was done I put my helmet back on and once again was left with nothing to do. I just walked around until it was night. Once it became night I fell asleep.

     For the next few days it was the same, study the language, walk around, and then fall asleep. Until I found out they had a like bath kind of thing.

     I had taken my armor off and left it on my bed before I left for the bath. There was a female and male one unsurprisingly. Turns out I hadn't take my armor off infront of anyone so they thought I was some kind of invader.

     Most intense game of charades I've ever played in my life. I really thought they would shoot me.

     Once I walked into the bath I saw Itami or better known as the guy who wants a beard but can only get a chin stubble. Walking over to the water I got in and to be honest it felt pretty good for a bath at least. It may of only felt good because of how long I was in my armor but who knows.

      I left shortly after and returned to my bed almost instantly putting back on my armor. I just felt more safe in it, I guess living during the times I have just makes you always want to be safe or something.

       Turns out that elf girl is also having a like extentental crisis. Im not to sure thought I don't really pay attention to other people much.

     On a positive side though I did manage to learn more of the language so I can start to actually understand people from this world more.

     As I was in thought while I walked around something finally made sense to me. When I had summoned the Eye of Cthulu to fight the dragon it had wanted to attack me. The monsters shouldn't be aggressive anymore so that could only mean 1 of 2 things. 1, that monsters here for some reason become aggressive or 2...Yharim isn't dead.

     As I thought about the second option I just shook it off as a theory. I mean I killed him after so I had nothing to worry about. He was dead and his reign of terror died with him.

     Before I knew it I ended up back in a vehicle due to being a like translator or something. Kind of sucks but whatever, maybe I'll find either a challenge or some kind of boredom reliever.  Either would be fine with me.

     I just hope something would happen to me already. Something to make me less bored.
