Well, here are my orders. Since I have no points, I guess I can't do anything major, so here is my minor story.

Shaan looked at the hills. He could feel an odd feeling in the air, as is it was heavy. But that was impossible. The air always felt nice and light. No matter. He was sent to find a new oasis, as the old one had mysteriously started getting smaller. He glanced at his partner, Rashnik, who was walking over the hill. Rashnik stopped, so Shaan went to see what happened. As he got over the hill, he too was stunned. Water as far as the eye could see! The two looked at each other then back at the water, then they yelled in delight. Shaan was the first to run towards the giant oasis, and he jumped in, clothes and all. But when he scooped his hands and took a great drink of the water, he instantly spit it out.

"What kind of water is this? We cannot drink it!"

Rashnik, always curious, took a drink of the water and spit it out, but he retched. Despite the undrinkability, the two went back to the camp to tell the clan leader about it. The next day, it was decided that they would move to this great water, and they did. As they approached it, Shaan noticed something inside the water, and he reached in and grabbed it. In his hand was the strangest creature he had ever seen, covered in hard skin, with giant eyes, and no hands or legs! On his way to show the creature to the clan leader, he noticed it stopped trying to move. How had it died, when it could live in the water, Shaan thought. Unless... it could breath water? No, no, that is a silly idea. But since it was dead anyway, he continued to himself, might as well eat it. With some difficulty, the hard skin was peeled off and he started a small fire with some small scrubs. As he bit into it, he fell in in love with the food. It was better than anything he had ever eaten before. Surely, everyone must learn about it!

In a few words, just move to the stinking coastline. Fishing hasn't been discovered, as there aren't any boats, nets, or spears (yet) so they just stand in shallow water and hope they can catch one of the slippery little things.

My orders from the alternate history experiment in the NES forum. You can look at them, as they're all posted in the thread itself, not PMed.
