We've unearthed yet another Note From the Underground. Our wayward Explorer is spending some time at their base today in a rare moment of tranquillity. As always, the underground is full of surprises, and it turns out there are plenty of new discoveries to be made right on this Explorer's doorstep!

Notes From the Underground #5 - Curious Cattle
"Today was one of those rare days where I didn’t get lost, nothing threatened my life, and I got to spend some time with the animals at my base. I’ve been studying the wildlife down here for a while and have even managed to start my very own ranch. The milk produced by Moolin is quite different from the milk back home – it has an earthy aftertaste – and I feel a lot sturdier after drinking it. The wool from my Bambucks has proved very useful for crafting new armour and backpacks.
There are many different types of cattle living in the underground, but I’ve started noticing unique variations within the species on my ranch. Imagine my surprise when my purple-haired Moolin gave birth to a calf with bright yellow hair. Since then, I’ve been paying closer attention to the cattle I encounter in the wild and can confirm that I’ve seen a pure white Drohmble, a purple Strolly Poly, and a pink Bambuck so far.
Observing the cattle got me thinking about the other creatures in this world. I’ve been enjoying the companionship of a loyal Subterrier and a very playful Embertail and thought it was time I did something nice for them. I’ve always found it impossible to keep track of more than one pet while I’m out exploring, so I got to work on crafting a cozy bed that one of them can rest in while I’m out and about with the other. I’ve gotta say, I’m pretty proud of my creativity here and I’ve got ideas for beds to suit all kinds of pets in the future!"
