PART II

The journal of Hans Von Murkan

Exherts from the National library of United Murkan Our flag unites us! WByPcVb.png

Entry one : 109 A.D

The men are struck with scurvy and we are stuck on this horridly humid and decaying piece of the wonderful Earth. The island we are stranded upon is filled with horrible grizzly old men (much like our own at home in the rhineland). WE struck a motherload of rum and gold so we stayed for the night and set off in the morning.

Von Murken Casting off from Azlea Island's. Circa 109 A.D

Entry two: same year 109 A.D , DAY 2

We are heading Northwest at 20 knots with a nice nortwestern ocean breeze to help us. The men are giddy with excitement , dreaming of the riches they will find when we reach the tropical shores of Aragon. It has been 2 years since we have first set out from Porto Venicio of the state of South Rhineland Europa. We hit a storm late day and where forced to make land on a tired , battered coast we found after sailing for 2 hours up and down it. We made camp and slept for the rest of the night.

Entry three: 109 A.D , One week later

We have become attached socially to the local leaders and (tear in page) have married the local (another tear -_-) chief (bloodstain) Daughter.

...

After an unexpected turn of events. The rest of this journal was never found. Modern historians believe that it was lost on some beach in Santo Carolina

This is an outstanding combination mix of pictures and maps.
Plus you added in the necessary history background.
This has all the elements of a Cj steeped in POTENTIAL !

Keep up the good work, Halen,

Thanks, Brian
