It had been a regular evening I was working my blue collar job and the sweat beaded per the usual confidence of my muscles against metal and metal I carried it Like A Boss.. Well I was, I was the manager of a Sheet Metal Housing Workplace.. I'd do almost everything from making the actual Sheets to Tearing my co workers a new one when they mess up.. I wasn't bad, No not nearly as bad as what Fate had in store for me..
***
One summer evening I had been driving to my home it was almost midnight soon and All I needed to do was sleep at that point.
But...
That's when everything changed.
Vroem..!
'Suddenly I was nowhere near my car or the Forestry Road I was used to..'
"Where- Where Am I..."
...
***
Day 1. I Need To Live.
The Day Started with me roaming around the forest Checking My Supplies on me and as I ran into and around the forest looking for an exit I seen A Couple Animals, seemed docile enough To Eat So I killed them or attempted at least... Had my partner, my Trusty knife that's been with me since a boy so.. forever, A Milwaukee Tool. Thank God I had it on me, I rushed over and caught the bunny by the nape and Threw it in the Head A kill.
Risker to stab the head then the body but clean kill well nevermind the risk, it was removed as I had Been holding it still but its got some stamina the struggling almost made me drop it.
'but Still lets try not too hard on quality but quantity i'm stranded after all and most importantly lets not accidentally stab myself..'
…
'This forest is.. Endless..'

Day 2. Camp
'I had Cooked And killed a couple Rabbits still storing some as I'm writing in my journal, Can't waste Resources..,'
"Where Is Everybody..?"

"Forest, Forest, Forest.. Sigh~"
'I'm tired of this Bring me some excitement once in a while The Forest Brings me food every now and again.. Deer, Boar, Bird, FIsh.. And The Like But I mean.. Why Am I even Here..? Realistically it doesn't make sense.. is this heaven..? Sigh.. Im feeling odd Might get sick probably didn't cook something long enough..'
"Damn it."

'Whilst writing This Journal To ANY Readers Please Evacuate This Forest It's Very Abnormal.. I finally found life other then animalistic Bad news It was something Completely Hostile and Mad.. A.. Goblin..? Orc..? it was small Regardless I had Killed it and looted it but by the time I was done there was three more so I ran.. even if they were small they pack a punch supposedly in groups, or so I've heard..'
'What the "Fuuuuuuaaacccckk-" Is what I said Secretly To myself around three hours ago, I had found out the abnormality of this forest.. its simple this isn't earth Im not dead and God has forsaken me or so I'm Forced to assume.'
"Oh God Why Me.."
