Tim was an explorative guy, by nature, his soul craved it. However, today those explorative senses of his were beaten down and abused. In the search for land, he had been slapped shitless by the ocean waves, who refused to cooperate with him. He was near the ocean shores, which meant that the waves could be more violent once in a while. He was flipped around like a pancake, tens of times, as his body seemingly wasn't designed to browse the ocean surface, out here near the shores, not at all!Things were tough, but at least the trip he took wasn’t entirely bad. The coral reef below him, for example, had softened up the intensity of the waves, at least for a little while, and this gave him some peace. The reef was complex enough to protect the ocean shores from tougher waves, which was beneficial to him, but this itself hadn’t been enough to tame Tim’s scrambled nerves. In fact, other than helping him, the reef also irritated him.The reef was huge, so it had taken a while to cross it.

Tim wanted to be a human again, he craved to be one as soon as possible! However, for the time being, he was an itsy-bitsy spider, and like most spiders, he was very vulnerable to all sorts of danger! Aside from that, he also had certain limitations now, power-wise. His arsenal of power had been severely weakened at the very moment when he turned into a spider! The system started getting into detail about the matter, as best as she could. While Tim strode forward and across the sand, she unraveled a bundle of information, in a computersized manner.She called for attention, [I respect your aspirations, Timothy, however, let us get back to reality for a while. Your current statistical, and or arsenal-oriented capabilities are the following…][Health Bar = 32/32][Hunger Bar =11/12][Sleep&Stamina Bar = 10/16][Mana Pool = 120/120]“Well shit! Looks like I gotta go ninja-mode for a while, because at this rate, I can’t risk running into something as little as a cricket, it’s not safe! G

[Before you go mental on those fireflies, you should know that you’ve spent 10 mana points already. That’s a lot for a little guy like you, do I have to keep reminding you? Be careful with how you spend your mana, please.] The system scolded him.Tim looked at the ‘fireflies’ in the meantime, the same ones who soared above the grass, and as he watched them approach, he couldn’t help getting nervous. He also ignored the system entirely, as this was not the time to be greedy or cautious with his points! He had to survive! Tim then looked down at the circle of grassy ashes, the very graveyard-like pit that he had caused. It was a foot away in front of him, and as he looked at it, he couldn’t help but piece a certain puzzle together. He guessed that the intense fire that he caused was what attracted these specific fireflies!It was a firm theory, and it made him really nervous, so he thought. “Look at them go! I’d be damned if they were here to have a picnic, those bastards want fried, s

Tim crawled towards the fireflies. He did so very efficiently, because it would appear that the fireflies weren't so smart. They were brickshit stupid in other words, and this stupidity gave Tim an advantage, because the fireflies were just randomly setting whole patches of grass ablaze! There was no plan or technique behind their doing, they were just determined to burn everything to the ground. They were stupid.With that considered, once he snuck up on them, Tim buried himself in a bit of dirt, and then started sneak-snipping the fireflies. He shot the first target down with a single thunderbolt, and then shot a couple of other bolts against another firefly!He relied on thunderbolts, because he feared that if he shot fireballs at these things, then he'd accidentally fuel their next rebirth. It was possible that all fifteen of these enemies could be reborn for the third time, and he didn't want to risk that. He tried to work in an optimal manner.Anyway, he continued snipping his t

Tim wasn’t ever scared of goats, so the symbol that was carved on the stone didn’t frighten him all that much. Come to think of it, he wasn’t too scared of elongated, snake-like creatures either. However, the recent trouble that he had gone through, taught him to be aware of any and all creatures, and the dangers they could cause. He had to avoid whatever approached him, for safety’s sake!For that matter, he tried to hide in plain sight. He wanted to get out of the way of whatever legless creature approached! “Hello dirt, my dear friend. You always provide me with excellent camouflage.” He thought. At this point, he was two inches deep in the dirt. He was so confident with his idea, that he felt comfortable joking with himself too. Tim had buried himself in the tunnel’s walls, on the right side of it, to be exact. No one could spot him, not even if they tried, especially if some brainless creature tried to do so. With that said, this would be considered a calculated, and rather sm
