I’m still at Vorgon. When I popped in, my computer froze. After I recovered and went back in, all of my settings resetted on me. So I had to take care of them.<\/p>\n
Anayyatta was on. He asked if angry got his sailboat, and I told him what angry told me in Skype that he tried to go to the island southeast of here, and nearly got slaughtered by hostiles there.<\/p>\n
He eventually popped in, but didn’t say anything. Then he left and hasn’t been back on since. From what Anayy has told me, angry doesn’t have that homestead he was telling me about.. yet. He believes angry is waiting for this sailboat first. Then he left to eat lunch.<\/p>\n
This gives me a chance to explain what happened yesterday in Golden Valley that I didn’t feel like making a 3rd blog post…<\/p>\n
.

\nI’ve decided to give the dog back to Borderland. Since the dog obviously doesn’t like me (always is ‘very thin’ and ‘upset’) I thought it would be the best thing. So I headed to Border’s place. He PMd me and I told him I had a ‘present’ for him. He started to get all jumpy and stuff, and asking me what the gift was. As I got closer I gave him a definitive hint; that the ‘gift’ breathes, is red, and I can lead it.<\/p>\n
He then knew what I was trying to do and refused to take him back. But I wasn’t going to take no as an answer, and dropped off the dog, the rope, and the decaying meat I’ve been carrying around.
\nHe said he was going to kill him, but he couldn’t since I still owned him. But it’s his problem now, and went back home. Then did some exploring around the area.
\nI know it feels wrong for doing that, but if I’m going to leave the Golden Valley, I can’t take care of him. Plus he wants to be groomed again, and angry was the only one I know that had a grooming brush.
\nDon’t worry, though. This has a happy ending. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I found this perfect flat area with a gorgeous view of the lake. If only I saw it before I would had slapped my house down.
\nAlittle later on I decide to continue on with my trip around the server, going the other way. Border logs out by this time as I leave the dock.
\nAs I near Vita Mea, fog starts becoming a problem. Including these ‘fog waves’. I finally found the toggle in the settings that disables it. Pretty Weather, in the Advanced Graphics tab in the setup options.<\/p>\n
After disabling the fog waves, I was able to see more clearly. Yes, the fog was developing. But these fog waves were making it worse by blinding me.<\/p>\n
When I made it to Valasurin (the settlement in the Northeast corner of the map surrounded by Tundra tiles), I went alittle further inland. Without the dog I had to be concerned about hostiles. But at least it felt like I was free, and I was enjoying myself. Not the fact I didn’t have the dog, but I didn’t have to babysit Borderland.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I went up this long hill and saw this breathtaking view of Valasurin Bay. Took a few pictures, and went down the other side and saw this lake that I could’ve sworn I’ve seen before. I took this opportunity to fill up my pottery jars with this lake water and headed back up the mountain to head back to the boat.<\/p>\n
And just as before, Sol was setting as I approached Bottleneck Bay. Parked on the side and waited. I then had an idea about the dog again. Just give it to someone else… like Sharp. He lost his dog to a champ lion. I noticed he was online and asked him. He agreed to take him off my hands. Had to tell him what happened and decided to pull out of the bay and head back to Border’s place, in the dark, hoping it’s not too late.<\/p>\n
I was along the south coast and he’s asking me what I dropped. I told him the rope, and the meat. He couldn’t find the rope, but did find it in the tile, and has been trying to tame him as I pulled into the dock.<\/p>\n
He’s still having alot of trouble taming him. So I told him what Border told me. Which is to tame something else to get this dog untamed. Suggested we find something like a deer. He suggested we find another dog, and I knew were some dogs were and told him to hop onto my boat and I’ll take him to them.<\/p>\n
I did and docked. He gave me some fish to tame him. I told him that Border said high QL meat is best with dogs.
\nAs I tried to tame this Young dog, suddenly the thing goes hostile and starts attacking me. I run back for the boat, but I knew dogs could swim, so I held my ground, while getting treated as a chew toy.<\/p>\n
When the dog died, I checked my wounds. Only one light, and several very lights. Thankfully I had no mediums, so I knew I wouldn’t have to seek medical attention.
\nSharp noticed how potentially risky this is and told me I’ll just have to wait ’till the dog untamed itself. I agreed and told him to get back in the boat and took him back to the dock.<\/p>\n
When we made it back at the dock and got off, we stared at eachother trying to think of what to do. I knew leaving him here would be a bad mistake. I really don’t know what I was thinking when I told Border to kill the dog.
\nThen an idea pops into my head and ask Sharp for the rope, and the lead the dog. I tell him that we’re going to go to his place, then he can build a pen and put the dog in it. When the dog finally gets untamed, it’ll be his. This is a more humane way for the dog.<\/p>\n
So me, with Sharp leading the way, leave the area and head towards his place. We get there with no cave bug issues this time. I notice he has fenced in his yard. This will work, and gave him the rope back and told him to take good care of the dog.
\nThen left through the quick and easy way back down and headed back home.<\/p>\n

\nFast forward 24 hours and back on the Freedom server, angry finally logs back in. We’re still waiting for this guy who still owes angry a boat (he’s now named Ace). Also, he confirms he does have a homestead. Says it’s around the northwest corner of the server, but wouldn’t give cords of the place. So I guess I’ll see it when I see it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
