A hole-based economy and a venison-based diet. You and your dog. And a turnip.

How it begins

You and your dog rise with the sun.

You stretch your arms, crack your back, and get dressed.

Author's Comments

This is an adaptation of a short story I wrote in 2016. I could never find the right place to get it published, but I thought it was fun, so I used Twine to turn it into an IF piece on November 20th, 2019.

Although there are some short tangents, the story is linear, and ultimately only one ending is possible.
