I was going into a caves for artifacts when i heard the nighttime transition music. Great, I thought, the megalosauruses are out. I was careful to make sure that I didn’t accidentally bump into one. I was almost to the artifact when I saw an arthropleura. Those stupid danger noodles are one of my worst nightmares. The going looked pretty easy other than that. That’s when I saw it… a head poked out from behind a rock. “Nope,” I said. “I’m going to die today.” I sat there staring at that megalosaurus, but I wasn’t leaving without the artifact. I stayed right there. All night, sometimes the megalosaurus would wander dangerously close to my hiding place. Finally, she curled up and went to bed. That is, after scaring the living crap out of me all night.

For those of you wondering, no, I didn’t get the artifact. After I’d proved I could keep my head (literally) and be patient, I was ambushed by a sneaky acidic noodle. Remember, always go into the caves in the morning✌️👍
