The Land of the Half-Horses

Diary Part 1

Diary Entry #1: May 27/ Day 1 of Expedition

A few of my crew told me I should right a diary. That it keeps you from "ocean madness." It's a bunch of nonsense if you ask me, but I might as well humor them.

I happened to hire a few new guys just for the extra hooves, and they all seem very promising. Especially Red. Which is kind of weird when his mane is a dark green and his coat a light yellow. I will never understand some of these ponies.

My quartermaster also quit, so I'm going to be holding "auditions" for the role. I'll do like a secret spy questionnaire. I had an idea of what I would ask, something about responsibility or something like that. It will probably come to me again when I least expect it.

I guess I'll right in this thing again. Good night diary. Wait why did I write that? Why did I write that? Ugh this damn book is going to give me some type of madness before anything else.

Diary Entry #2: June 1/ Day 5 of Expedition

It's been 5 days, and still no sight of land nor creature. That's fine. When we went fishing we would be out for weeks. One time we were out for a month. Good times.

I finally found a suitable first mate. Turns out Red is a natural born leader. Almost like yours truly. The kids got real talent. A few of the crew lost their send of optimism, and damn did Red give a fine motivational speech. Just wish I remembered it. It would be good for future adventures.

In other news, turns out we had a meteorologist on board. He was saying some stuff about heavy waves and head winds. I don't really believe all the scientific mumbo jumbo. Unicorn magic is where it's at.

I hear some yelling on deck. Going to check it out real quick. Oh dear Celestia, one of the unicorns slipped and stabbed his horn into a bucket. I hope someone on board knows how to remove buckets from horns. Ha ha. Today was a good day.

Diary Entry #3 June 4/ Day 8 of Expedition

That meteorologist was right... The storm hit hard. And is still hitting. The first thing I thought to do was right in this. I just hope the crew is ok.
