I hope you realise that this means war

Today I woke up early to go and see Vasco. He was not where he usually was staying for the nights. I stared to look for him and his children, but I couldn’t find any of them right away. So I went to the place where he was cutting wood the day I met him, and there he was, cutting the village’s wood and keeping it for himself.

I yelled, “What do you think you are doing? That is the villages wood,” Vasco told me it was all of our wood, I assume he was talking about him and his family.

I started to get irritated and declared war on him, only because he was all alone. He agreed, but when he showed up, he was definitely not alone. At first he out numbered up but not by much, but when we got into the war there was thousands of men by his side. I don’t know they did it, but the men on my side fought for there lives and only two of them had it taken from them.

Vasco raised a white piece of fabric he called a flag, and the war was over. We shook hands and were friends again.

My new friend Vasco

Today the people of the village were having trouble with houses, there was a giant wind which made all of our houses fall to the ground.

Me and one other person named Manmohan were sent to go out in the forest and get wood and supplies for building new houses. Manmohan and I were at in the forest for no more then 5 minutes when he ran back to the village beacause he heard a noise. I went in farther to see what was making the noises. It was a man, he was with two children and it looked like they were building small houses.

 Seeing a grown man and two children who didn’t look any older than ten years build small houses got me thinking, if these three people can build small houses in two or three hours, imagine what they and the whole tribe could accomplish when working together.

I noticed that the man was taking very good care of the children, so he probably would not want anything to happen to them. So I waited until they started to leave and one of the children walked behind the man. When they left I quickly snuck up behind them, snatched one of the boys, and ran for my life back to the village hoping that the man would follow me.

My plan worked. The man started to run after me with his other little boy in his arm. I managed to make it to the village without getting caught. When the man finaly caught up to me, he drew his sword and held it to my throught. I creamed “please stop!, you may have your child back but just here me out”. I have taken your child so I could lure you to my village and ask you a favor”. He took his boy from me and asked what the favor was. I told him we needed him to help us build houses. He didn’t look like ho wanted to but he still agreed to do it.

I wonder why he said he would help us without questioning me about getting paid or anything like that. Oh well at least we’re getting our homes back.

Strange Ships

Ealry this morning, five people saw 2 ships sailing towards the village. Many people were worried, some were excited, and some did not no what was going on at all. I was one of the people that were excited.

 I thought the ships would be here today but since I only heard about it and never saw it, I was olny assuming. One of the people in the village said by the looks of where it is now, it should be here in about a day and a half.

  We were not sure what to do about strange ships that we have never seen in our lifes coming to or little village. We did not know if the people in the ships wanted to be friends with us or kill us, I guess only time will tell.

Greetings from India

 Hello, my name is Kumari . I was born in the year 1476. I have 3 sons and 4 Daughters, all of which have different mothers. My oldest son, Abookasigun, often helps me gather food and wood for fires, while my younger children play with one another for almost the entire day. I do not have a wife but I am looking for one, so if any women are reading this and are interested, you know where to find me.

There are many animals where I live, some try to take my kids and swallow them whole, I’m not sure what these animals are called but they are very long creatures with fangs that look like they could peirce the skin of an elephant. Most animals here do not eat man, instead they eat plants or other animals.

Me and my children live in a place we call Intalunib. Intalunib is the name of our village. 46 other people live in the village with us and on some days we will all sing and dance around a fire while the younger children play the drums or any other thing they can make a beat with.

That is all I have to say,I  hope to hear from somebody soon!
