Day 4 of this Journey

Day 4 in this strange new world and I have had a breakthrough! I am delighted and giddy about how much I have accomplished, but first, my observations.

The giant fireball in the sky has been hidden by a seemingly flat expanse of micro-water particles in higher density than previously observed. Occasionally, these micro-particles coalesce into larger ones and fall to the ground. I have been struck by many of these, so have chosen to remain in the dwelling of my benefactors. As mentioned previously in this journal, the rotation of this planet, coupled with its elliptical orbit, has caused fluctuations in the surface weather, resulting in the lower altitudes of the micro water particles, as illustrated thus:

When the temperatures dropped as a result of the planet's rotation and this surface region rotated away from the giant nuclear fireball in the sky, the water particles' motion slowed until they changes phase from liquid to solid on the surface vegetation. I have captured an example:

Today's breakthrough involves the smallest being in the domicile I am currently occupying. The small beast has thus far been unwilling to engage with me in a manner similar to the rest of the beings in the household. The small beast chooses to speak to me with loud, sharp, non-patterned sounds in its native tongue, instead of using the varying, harmonious, and patterned sounds of the three larger beings. It also reveals its sharp eating appendages, threatening to use them upon my flesh. I have previously kept my distance from this strange beast.

This morning, as I was sitting on the ground, said beast approached me in a seeming docile, cautious manner.

I responded in a similarly cautious manner, and succeeded in touching the beast without injury to self.

I shall continue to observe the beast's mannerisms, as I do not trust this change of heart fully.

Perhaps continuing to bribe it with the orange roots it seems so fond of eating, will help.
