After Dale had finished "helpling" one of the last fuzzy eared creatures, he decided to check how boxes he had gotten from helping the strange critters go to sleep. He was a bit confused when it kept repeating but after a bit of mental straining he decided that the number was bigger and pushed away the box, seemily satisfied. Leaving the peaceful animals to sleep for awhile longer, he decided to try and find his way out of the forest.

  He wandered for awhile and admired his handy work in getting the cute creatures to fall asleep. They must've been very sleepy if they had just fallen asleep by looking at him! Eventually, after the Sun had risen to the edge of the sky and the moon was slowly going somewhere else, he broke out of the tree line and looked down upon the valley where all those strange looking places, no, buildings were. he had gotten quite a bit closer and could now clearly see the fence that surrounded the town. Dale was still a bit wary of fences since the last time he had crossed one he had felt his head, or where his head should of been if it wasn't transparent, had hurt badly.

After weighing the pro's and cons of going through the fence, he decided he would wait until night so he could go over the fence while it was asleep. Dale decided in the meantime he would wander around for a while.  Maybe he could find some other creatures to put to sleep!

Many, Many hours and several dead foxes or "Pointy ears,” later, he noticed the sun was dipping below the skies and the moon was creeping into his view, he decided now would be the perfect time for him to make his move. Slowly and Cautiously the ghost phased to the buildings, when he reached the fence, he paused for a second before deciding he was ready to move on. Suprisingly, when he had phased past the fence, Dale hadn't gotten sick, nauseous, or even queasy. He decided that the fence must've fallen asleep and he had snuck right past it successfully. After giving himself a mental pat on the back, he continued forward even braver than before.

When he reached what he assumed was the town, he realized he could barely see the outlines of the buildings nearby. he tried focusing on them as they got harder to see, but they slowly became darker and darker until he couldn't see anything past himself. He tried moving around but was stopped by either buildings or random objects on the street, after moving for what seemed like an eternity, he noticed a brown barrel on the road and was suddenly entranced by it. “Maybe I can ask the barrel for directions?” Dale thought, After concentrating on that certain majestic barrel for sometime, thinking of the way he should approach the barrel, he suddenly got a notification.

Gained Racial Skill! [Night Vision] is now unlocked, [Night Vision]: Allows you to see in the dark, each level increases your ability to see in the dark! Secondary Effects: +5 to Vision.

 While he could read the words, he still had no idea what they meant. After looking up from the confusing text, he noticed he could now see the barrel as if it was late morning. Slowly, he looked up into the sky and noticed the silvery moon was still hanging in the middle of the sky. Chalking it up to a random coincedince, he looked around and realized he had been walking through the same things and had just been moving in circles around one of the buildings! Feeling embarrassed about this, he decided not to mention it to the other things when he eventually met them, after all, they would think he was dumb!

After finally tearing himself away from the moon, of which he could now see almost all of it, he moved on until he reached the barrel, where he could see  something faintly silvery. Dale slowly reached into the barrel and brought out nothing, realizing he couldn’t actually grab anything in the barrel, he tried to peer in and see what was inside, only to find that he could no longer see what was inside. Looking tearfully at the beautiful and amazing barrel, he slowly phased to one of the other buildings, hoping to find a barrel he could open.
