El Diario de Expedición y la Ruta del Errante

What it is

This is the Wanderer's notebook, and one screen holds three books running on three different clocks: the Journal is TODAY (a daily Ration, the Flame that multiplies it and three errands), the Almanac is YOUR SEASON (a hundred journeys stamped with the realm where you claim them) and the Road is FOREVER (30 permanent milestones that never expire).

It exists so that playing regularly pays better than playing in bursts, without punishing anyone who misses a day. And so the veteran opening the panel for the first time doesn't find a 0/30: the Road counts nothing new, it reads what you've already done.

When it opens

Gadget → Journal, and it's open from minute one: no level or continent required. The only gate is the tutorial — until you close it, every button here bounces you back to the Gadget. The button carries a number beside it: everything you have to claim right now. If it says 0, there's nothing waiting.

What does have a requirement is the Ration: you need 8 expeditions TODAY. That number went from 3 to 8 on purpose, because a three-outing gate turned the daily package into a prize for merely showing up; eight is about six to eight minutes alternating tracking and digging, so it still fits a short session, but you have to PLAY. The day rolls over at 00:00 UTC, not at your midnight.

What it is for

It solves two problems at once. For the light player, it turns a short session into something that pays: eight outings and the Ration is yours, plus the errands, plus the full-day bonus if you close them all.

For the heavy player, it's the lever that softens the wall. Everything it pays is denominated in work outings — not in flat Khron — and the curve is loaded toward the fourth continent, which is where a run actually bogs down.

And the Wanderer's Road is also one third of your completion percentage, alongside the Atlas and the Achievements. It's the only one of the three books that counts toward it, because the Journal wipes at midnight and the Almanac is seasonal. Note: it counts milestones CLAIMED, not reached. Getting there isn't enough.

How it works

1. 01

   Dónde está y qué ves al abrirlo

   Gadget → Diario. El botón lleva un número al lado: es todo lo que tienes por reclamar ahora mismo (la Ración, los encargos ya terminados y los hitos de la Ruta que ya has cumplido). Si el número es 0, no hay nada que cobrar. Dentro, la carta te dice de un vistazo el Khron exacto que pagaría el botón Reclamar, en qué día de la Llama vas y cómo llevas los tres encargos del día.

   Paso 1 · La Ración: sal 8 veces y cobra

   La Ración es el pago diario y se abre cuando has salido de expedición 8 veces HOY. Si te faltan, el panel te dice exactamente cuántas. Paga en Khron a la escala de tu continente: 126 en el Valle Alba, 1.012 en el Bosque Umbral, 2.708 en las Dunas, 9.082 en el Archipiélago y 15.768 en el Corazón del Velo, contando el primer día de Llama. Se cobra una sola vez al día y va entera: Ración, casilla del Almanaque, XP y Llama salen en la misma pulsación, no se pueden partir.

   Paso 2 · La Llama: siete días y la Hoguera

   Cobrar días seguidos enciende la Llama, y cada día del ciclo multiplica la Ración un poco más: ×1 · ×1,15 · ×1,30 · ×1,50 · ×1,75 · ×2 y ×2,50 el séptimo. El día 7 es la HOGUERA: además del pago doble y medio te llevas un material raro de tu continente y una Leña de Reserva. Al día siguiente el ciclo vuelve a empezar por el día 1. En el Archipiélago, la Ración del día 7 son 22.706 Khron frente a los 9.082 del día 1.

What you can and cannot do

What you do not see

The decision holding it all up: the Almanac stamps a square per Ration CLAIMED, not per calendar day, so missing a day costs you no squares — it only ever moves forward. And its ten milestones seal themselves but open whenever you want, always paying at the scale of the realm that sealed them: that kills "I'll hold this until the fifth continent and cash it at double" by construction.

It also never gives consumables and never marks anything in the Atlas, because discovering means FARMING: if it counted, the Atlas could be bought with a streak.

Two things that surprise people. The day's three errands aren't random: they come from a calculation over your id and the date, so reloading the panel won't change them. And a bot outage CAN break your Flame — the game knows how to discount days it was down, but nothing currently records those outages, so that list is always empty.
