The heroes know that if they are to survive, they must cultivate fruit and catch fish, these things are paramount to survival. Only by having the bare necessities of survival, can they then turn their focus towards repairing their wrecked ship and returning home.
However, a plot is brewing, and the hero's shall be tested in ways they never thought possible...

Overview
Stamina
Heroes will burn stamina as they complete activities on the island. Each hero will start at 20 stamina, and can recover 20 stamina per day.
The amount of stamina is fixed per slot, meaning that you can freely switch a hero into a different slot in order for them to gain the stamina of that slot. For example, a Nemora in a slot with 12 stamina can be swapped with a Belinda in a slot with 20 stamina. At the end of the swap, Nemora will have 20 stamina while Belinda will have 12.
This is an effective manner of getting more use out of specific heroes.
The table below details how much stamina will be burnt per each activity:
| Activity | Cost |
|---|---|
| Farming | 1 Stamina per Hour |
| Fishing | 1 Stamina per Hour |
| Ship Repairs | 1 Stamina per Hour |
| Removing Vines | 8 Stamina |
| Battling Enemies | 8 Stamina |

Transcript
[Opening Animatic/Survivor's Log Entry]
...
[Start of Event]
Solise: ... What is this place? What happened?
Gorvo: We were shipwrecked. This remote island is our new home for now.
Lucius: There's ship debris on the beach, we'd best investigate.
Belinda: The hull is ruined, there's no way we could piece this together and get back out to sea.
Gorvo: I can.
Belinda: ...Only by repairing the ship's hull can we guarantee everyone's safety.
[Begin farming]
Lucius: It'll take some time to repair the ship. The anomaly at sea doesn't appear to be subsiding. If we want to survive, we'd better cultivate our own food.
Solise: There are all sorts of plants on the island, I'm sure we can find some fruits.
[Collect first floating bottle]
Vurk: That looks like small bottles floating in the ocean, they seem to contain supplies.
Belinda: A drifting bottle. People would put messages in these and cast them out to sea. I've conveniently just picked up a pen and paper from the wreckage, perhaps we can use our own drifting bottle to send word for help?
Vurk: It's likely that the bottles will just wash back up on this shore again.
[Begin fishing]
Vurk: I can't live on leaves! I need some meat, too!
Antandra: Perhaps we can try our hand at fishing, that'll give us strength!
[Encounter vines]
Vurk: What's with all the vines on this stupid island?! Setting traps is such a pain!
Antandra: We need to clear these vines to explore more of the island.
[Challenge Mind-Caged Seirus]
Seirus: What's the matter Gorvo, are you so surprised?
Gorvo: My dear friend, why are you on this island? Was it you who sunk the ship?
Belinda: Gorvo has been ambushed! Quickly, help!
