Hey, Randvi and K!
Hope you're doing all right.
Wanted to let you know about a couple of things.
I told K earlier, but just so you know, Randvi, there are very, very large bears in the jungle.
The one we encountered was 10-feet tall, at least.
Maybe K can show you how tall that is?
I'm not sure what measurements they use in your time.
But it's really, really tall.
Thankfully, we didn't fight the bear, and it just went after the food we had.
Probably want to keep any food stores secured away from you.
And then we also encountered a dinosaur today.
Like a raptor-style dinosaur.
I'm not sure how best to describe this for you, Randvi.
Sort of like a dragon?
It's a really, really big and dangerous lizard with feathers that walks on two legs and has very sharp claws on its hands.
It had to be 9 or 10-feet tall.
We're trying to get out of the jungle, heading into the foothills.
Just slow-going with Jet and Kk's injuries and me still getting dizzy.
Ben is alive again.
He's the man who Detective Cohle posted about dying.
I told him he should probably head down to your camp for safety.
But I wanted to give you a warning.
I'm a little bit concerned about him.
He's not in a great mental place, I don't think, especially after dying, and he has a gun.
That's a weapon that's sort of like a slingshot, but it uses metal instead of stones and there's a mechanism that does all the hard work of swinging for you.
Just keep an eye on him.
And maybe don't leave him alone with Senku for too long.

We went into the foothills to try to avoid more predators.
It could also be animals are getting dropped in here the same as people.
Timelines don't matter.
Like Randvi and Senku being from really, really different times.
Oh, gosh. I can't believe more people are washing up on the island.
It's really troubling.
But it's good you're going to help! :)
I think Ben's a danger to everyone just now.
When I met him, he seemed like he just has a lot of, like, excess energy?
He's one of those guys that's really on.
And then you have what just happened and he's scared and messed up.
And he's running around responding to everyone on the message that Cohle sent out.
Feels like he's doing the 'look at me, I'm so okay, I could never be MORE okay' thing.
Which is concerning.
I don't think he's going to intentionally try to hurt someone.
But he seems reckless.
You've met Senku.
Is he sensible enough not to go and do reckless things while you're gone if someone tries to talk him into it?
Year stuff is interesting.
Sol, one of the call signs I've spoken to who says they're on a different island, got nervous when I started asking about the year.
Not sure what to make of it.
If this world is post-apocalyptic, maybe they don't know the actual year anymore?
