Poll #1

You have two options.

-FOLLOW THE KITTEN further into the forest. She went SOUTH, in the direction of the nearest glittering object-- though it is now getting so dark that you cannot see much of a reflection from it any more.

-GO EAST off the trail, deeper into the woods. It looks quite dark down there, where the trees get dense and thickly clustered.

Please vote for your choice using the poll on the right. When we have reached 5 votes, I will take the winning option as the next move.

You pick up the purring kitten, meaning to take it home and care for it, but it squirms out of your arms and runs off deeper into the forest.

You bend down and pet the kitten. It purrs happily. It seems very glad to get some attention. It's pretty thin, and looks like it hasn't been fed in a while. You start to wonder if you should give her a name.

You have a closer look at the kitten. No collar, no tags. She looks pretty lonely, though. She'd probably like to come with you.

You pull out your cell phone and capture the pretty view. Heck, you go right ahead and make it your phone wallpaper.

You then attempt to text your mum and explain the situation, but you find that you have no signal at all here.

 

That attempted, you climb down the tree and head further SOUTH.

You can still see the glimmer. It is quite close now. There is an adorable kitten here.

You head over to the sign to take a closer look.

After that, you find a nice, climbable tree and scale it easily, hoping to get a better view. You can see the forest stretching out in front of you, and there are several more of the shiny objects reflecting the setting sun from amongst the trees.

You enter the forest. It's beautiful, even though it's starting to get dark. There is a sign on a nearby tree, but you can't read it from this distance. The path continues to lead SOUTH.
