The wind blew and the waves were wild, water and hale dropped heavily on our caravel, thunder boomed and lightning flashed, the ship was tilting back and forth wildly. This was a terrifying storm and our ship was in the middle of it. We were desperate to save our ship and our lives so we threw away the extra cargo however it was in vain the caravel was violently torn in two and I was thrown into the water and nearly drowned, it was a terrifying experience the feeling of running out of air, the water entering your lungs and losing consciousness I thought I was done for until I woke up in this strange island, I walked around this island and found tons of debris of our destroyed ship and even a cargo full of velvet cloth, we were supposed to transport these to London, as I was walking I noticed something it was a man lying on the beach I ran to check if he was alive unfortunately he wasn’t, there was a large piece of debris sticking out of his chest and the sight of it made me gag and vomit, after I dug a grave and buried the man it was already nightfall, I regretted wasting my time on burying him instead of making a fire to stay warm or getting some food, it was a horrible night I was freezing, hungry and trying to make a fire only to fail over and over again, when dawn came I finally made a fire and I decided to search for food in the jungle, I was able to find grubs I heard from my friend John that these where edible I decided to try and eat It, I gagged and nearly vomited it although it didn’t taste bad but it was still gross anyway I started looking for a source of water which I fortunately found, it was a small stream leading to a cave facing the beach which was really convenient for me. I have food, water and shelter now for the next few weeks I ate only grubs and drank only water and waited at the beach for a ship to pass by however as time passed no ship ever came and my hope had been crushed it has been a month now and I hadn’t had any human contact since I was stranded here I am at wits end and can no longer think properly, then I snapped and ran into the jungle screaming.
