EremoterraThe chronicle of Ostrov
Open sea, 4338 m deep, kept by Katja Novak
Every line is a record the land wrote; the names in quotes are the owner's words. What the chronicle does not say did not happen. Most lines fade after half a year; the kept ones stay.
Animals here this month: whale (feeding), shark (feeding), sea turtle (nesting), dolphin (calving), tuna (spawning), reef fish (feeding).
