Digging I am now going to the mine fields with my supplies. My brother has found his own digging party so I am on my own, I doesn't really matter I wouldn’t wont to share anyway I have now gone for 30 days straight without any trouble but, I am a little worried about the licence hunt which should be happening soon. Oh no it’s the licence hunt there is chaos everywhere they have caught a guy he looks familiar I see why he's my brother Sister is pleading with the men but they still take him away I still mine my own gold saying its his own fault he got taken away
