The resources that you find will only get you so far, you will need to cut down trees, mine rocks, nodes or ice in order to create items that will protect you from the savagery of the islands of Tarvhas. Within the vicinity, you will be able to find several very useful and basic items. With nothing but a Journal and your wits, you will have to survive this new and hostile environment.
You have been exiled from your people, and you have now run aground upon the mysterious island Snowmere. To minimize the sound of your footsteps you can by default hold CTRL, but also be wary of any plants in your way, as animals can pick up on even the slightest bit of sound. It is possible to sneak up on them as well, but it would require cunning to not alert the deer to your presence. Cooking meat from the animals of the island is a great source of food, and if it is a non hostile animal that is your target then it is recommended to use a Wood Bow to take it down from afar. In order to survive you will need food to prevent starvation.
