Dear Diary,

Day 1

Today did not go as expected. The drop happened and I have the item. Of course, my money purse is looking a bit sparse now, and I’m unsure of what to do with the item for the time being, but supposedly it has untold power...

Dear Diary,

Day 30

The item... it has hatched. I now have what must be “untold power” in the form of a lizard. Aside from tearing apart the eraser on my pencil as I am writing this, I’m starting to rethink the meaning of “untold power”. Perhaps it is untold because there isn’t much to tell?

Dear Diary,

Day 90

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

I am growing increasingly concerned. I started with one lizard, which by the way now has wings and flutters around annoyingly, but now I have probably around... 50 lizards. It would seem that my lizard was female and had somehow attracted a mate. She laid a lot of eggs, and... they’ve eaten all the padding in my couch. I’m starting to realize that their power may come from the sheer strength in numbers.

Dear Diary,

Day 300

HELP. The couch is long gone, so is all the furniture, and my house is on fire! The mother lizards have formed a protective band over their babies and are nesting in my basement, and the daddy lizards have gone to multiply and replenish the earth. It is the lizard apocalypse as we know it!

Dear Diary,

Day 700

Still alive. Edit: Lizards are dragons. I don’t know if anyone will find this, but if you do... just please don’t.

Dear Diary,

Day 1200

I have formed a mighty tribe of cave dwellers. We love our caves. The caves are safe. We shall raise our babies here.
