So I have been traveling for the past three weeks, and have fallen WAAAAAY behind in my daily posts. Today, I'm gonna post all 21 days' worth of events, as I still took screenshots of everything to write down later.
Without further ado, here's what happened on Shione Island for the past three weeks!
