Day 2 on Earth: Entry one

Our squad commander received orders to move further into the jungle. Great. We had just gotten settled down when the order was given. Word is there's an abandoned base further on. Are we hoping to salvage it? We're packing up now. I'll update this later.

Day 2 on Earth: Entry two

We've been trekking through the forest for about...two hours now? I don't know. The forest roof blocks out a lot of sunlight in these parts...I hear noises coming from the darkness. It's almost deafening.

We ran into more Kubrows. Our commander accidentally led us right through a cluster of dens. There were so many! We ran as fast as we could. There was no way we could take on that big of a pack.

I tripped on a twisted root during the chase. When I turned around to see the face of my doom, there was nothing there. The howling and barking stopped. I looked around in the darkness, shining my headlamp on the walls and into the forest. I saw those mutts. Dead. All of them. They just...died. There was nothing there. I got back up and ran to find the rest of my squad.

Day 2 on Earth: Entry three

Well, I have good news and bad news. The good news is that I found my squad. The bad news is that they're all dead. Even the commander. I don't know what happened or who did it, but all I know is that I'm on my own.

I took my commander's map device and tried to figure out where I was. I didn't understand any of the symbols I saw. It was just a jumble of numbers and letters. I wasn't taught to read this stuff. The one thing I did recognize was a distinct yellow blip on the radar. Probably where we were headed to begin with. Hopefully I can make it there by myself. It feels like everything in this damn place is out to kill me.

Day 2 on Earth: Entry four

I finally found my way to the camp. Unfortunately, it looks like I'm a little too late. There's bodies everywhere. Slung over rails, sliced in two, ripped apart, even pinned to walls by their necks! What sort of monster is capable of something like this?!

On the bright side, whatever killed these guys left the drop ship intact! On the bad side, I'm a lancer. I have no idea how to fly these things. Well, first time for everything, right?

I'm going to try and figure out the controls for this. If I don't update these logs, one of three things have happened.

One, I crash and die.

Two, I crash, live, and the data tablet is broken.

Three, I live and lose the data tablet.

So much for morale. Here goes nothing…
