Day 1 - I have made it, and although this scratch of charcoal is a poor pen and I had to wait for these books to dry to make use of them, I am grateful to God for both. When I was swept from the deck of the Santa María, I thought it was the end… but in the morning, I found myself woken by the tide, and I was safe upon a strange shore!\n\nI have escaped the whip and curse of Captain Isabella and her filthy, nonsense-spouting dog of a prisoner. That foul excuse of a man led us to our doom, yet I have awoken in a paradise! Beautiful land as far as the eye can see and what I can take for structures upon the isle, although I know not the markings.\n\nMay Captain Isabella have drowned beneath the waves with her filthy prisoner. Though, I hope the rest of the crew made it to shore as I did.\n\n- A. Damas

Alive!

Day 3 - There is still no sign of the Captain and the crew. I have constructed a makeshift shelter, and some simple tools aid my efforts. I am truly alone here on the isle, and consider myself fortunate. I am free of her cursed ship and her mad navigator. Even though I know I shall never see my contract fulfilled, I find that I do not care. The isle provides all I need.\n\nThere is no lack of food or water – game is plentiful, and I have found a spring from which I may drink. The very place restores my spirits, and I feel healthier and stronger than I ever have.\n\n- A. Damas

Trouble with the Captain

Day 7 - I found tracks today, and my heart became afraid. The tracks were made by boots, and made by many men. I do not think they were searching for me, but the direction they were heading was toward my shelter, and they may chance upon it.\n\nI must hurry. If Captain Isabella survived and finds me, I fear for my safety.\n\n- A. Damas
