Chronological Recap

Day 15: The Warehouse Cutscene

• Event: I began the day by triggering the Day 15 cutscene, which moved me to a new Forest tile. After an act of sabotage, I was ambushed by a Buster T-7.
• Combat: The fight was difficult. I took a total of 8 damage over several rounds, dropping my HP to 6. After multiple failed escape attempts using the TS-5 Sprint Tech skill, I finally succeeded with a roll of 5.
• DARK: The escape forced me to skip eating. I was able to sleep, recovering +3 HP and +2 EP. However, during the Condition Check, I gained one level of Starvation, which resulted in a -2 HP penalty.
• I ended the day with HP=7 and EP=13.

Day 16: Lady in the Mist

• DAY: I moved to a new tile and rolled a 6, discovering Swamp terrain. My event was an encounter called "Lady in the Mist." I chose to give the woman one Fruit from my inventory.
• DUSK & DARK: I ate one Meal Bar, recovering +2 HP and +1 EP. I then slept, recovering an additional +3 HP and +2 EP. This reset my Starvation track.
• I ended the day with HP=12 and EP=16.

Day 17: The Old Farm

• DAY: I moved to a new tile and rolled a 3 for Mountain terrain. My event was a ruin called "An Old Farm Building," where I found four Fruit.

Day 18: Gearing Up

• DAY: I moved to a new tile in the Mountains and discovered Village #3. I spent the day preparing for the journey ahead.
• Village Activities:
  • Trading: I sold my Engineered Plant and two Spare Parts. I bought five Meal Bars, one Hunting Knife, one Small Bow with ten Arrows, and one pair of Climbing Gloves.
  • Training: I paid 5 Bits to enter the Fight Club. I spent 10 EP over several attempts and took 4 damage from sparring partners. I successfully leveled up TS-1 Dodge & Strike twice (to Level 3) and TS-4 EMP Grenade twice (to Level 3) before being asked to leave.
  • Questing: I accepted Quest #3, "Runners High," and marked its location on my map.
