Nothing-ness.

Well, if they could I am fairly certain that my legs would kill me. I've been walking all day without stopping, until about three minutes ago. No settlements today. In fact, no architecture of any sort. A saw a couple of trees. No leaves. Not many branches, actually. They seemed relatively young. I'm sitting under one right now. Not even a bird in them.

Actually, that is a very good point. I haven't seen any wild life of any sort. There are no mountains in the immediate vicinity, just a small range in the distance. And I mean distance, at least a two weeks walk. I'll be done long before then. By this time tomorrow, actually.

Behind me, I can see a storm on the horizon. It looks very bad, very dark clouds and lots and lots of lightning Some of the clouds appear to be a dark red, which are lit up vibrantly by the lightning. It's beautiful to watch. However, I have scanned it and getting caught in it would mean instant death. It shouldn't catch up with me until tomorrow, so I'll be walking fast and hoping that wherever I end up, there's some form of shelter.
