My Last Journal

think this is going to be the last journal I am going to write about this dragon like castle because I am quite
sure the rescue team is going to be here in no time!

Since I was lost in this tricky forest, I found this gigantic wall, what I really thought was a super
big castle. I believe I am the founder of this long “castle”! I am a traveller from Korea and this trip was
supposed to be the best trip ever, but I ended up here – stuck! Several weeks ago I came here because I liked the
culture here, where there are lots of tasty foods to eat and also red packets!

On the 3rd day of my journey I decided to secretly sneak into a restricted forest called The Forbidden
Forest. My plan was to go across the forest and meet the tribes living in there, as I’ve heard many stories about
them. As I was orienteering around I enjoyed my journey as there were many sights to behold. But somehow I
fell down a cliff and fell unconscious. When I woke up, my spine was horribly sore, my head was trickling
blood down my face. My leg was blue and I felt as If I was dead! But I stood up and found that I couldn’t even
walk a feet!
The sky was dark and the stars were shining like diamonds. I looked around and everything was silent,
not even a mouse could be heard! I crawled in pain and my mind was not in the right place. I closed my eyes
without any intention, but at this very moment all I was thinking of was “to live!”
The hours had passed and the sun now was shining brightly, glaring into my eyes. It was Forty
Degrees Celsius. I took my bloody and sweaty shirt off and I felt I was able to breathe like a human being
finally. I really wanted to live! As if I was possessed by a spirit, I started to set up my tent. I had plenty of food
and water and I did not worry about anything else. Ever since then, I have lived in this little tent! I live just
below this Long Castle, which I now call home.
Well I know that people will not believe my story when they find me, but I think my story will be
appreciated by people someday. I am proud to call myself a survivor.
