Alright, so... Hello.
My name's Katri, I live in my head and drink copious amounts of tea.
I'm in love with this game.

I started playing a few days back, but then made a different account because I almost immediately ran into this grown deer with The Exact Same Pictogram mine did. I wasn't sure if that was supposed to happen - does that happen? (Is it fate?) (o_O) So I kept following (and annoying?) this deer for a long time and staring at our respective pictograms trying to find a difference, but to no avail. Our names appear similar to the smallest detail. It could be that mine had some overlapping lines, but...
In any case, yesterday I decided the situation bothered me enough and Wintry was born. I'll give up if I find that she has a namesake as well.

Wintry had a tremendously good time in the Forest yesterday. She made friends with two gentle fawn whose pictograms I've got down on paper so we'll remember them. Thank you so much, whoever you are!
I also showed a live friend around the game, fooling around with her until midnight.

I'm not really much of a blogger - I used to write like a fountain of ink but my creativity dried down a long time ago for some reason. In spite of that, the fact that my entries tend to stretch apparently hasn't changed at all.

The original reason for this entry was actually the dream I had last night.
I was a fawn, wandering around the Forest, conversing with fellow deer, with this playing in the background: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZE16WeQNcP0&feature=related
My first thoughts upon waking up were along the lines of: "Oh my goodness - PERFECT MATCH!"
I bet a lot of the players think that Endless Forest and Miyazaki's movie soundtracks are a natural combination though... Really, I'm surprised I didn't think of that when I was awake!
As it happens, the dream was a revelation to me, and I feel on top of the world today because of it.

There was a strange location in my dream, as is usual in dreams anyway: an abandoned quarry in a dry mountain landscape. I remember the soil was red, and there was a cave leading to a cliff that overlooked a valley.

I found the dream so inspiring that I just had to share it - and I wonder if anyone would understand better than the Endless Forest community. I just hope you guys won't find it very lame or anything... (^_^U)

Many thanks to Auriea and Michael for creating such an awesome and inspiring game! Like I said, I've only played for a couple days and Endless Forest has given me so much already...
(I do have an unfortunate tendency to get bored and stop playing, but I pray it doesn't happen with EF! ...Well, if it happens I doubt it'll be permanent, and anyway I'll be donating until then!)

I wonder if anyone will actually read this anyway?
If you did, then thanks!

See you in the Forest.
