At this point, I believe the old man won't hurt me, so I begin to nibble on the fungi. I wonder if maybe I could draw a picture of civilization; a few stick figures and tents and animals, and point outside. This may translate well.

Nidilap likes Adamantine, Bituminous Coal, Garnets, Cats for their aloofness, Dwarves for their stupidity, and Swords for their Spikes and edges. When possible, he prefers to eat pizza, ramen noodles, and sushi. He absolutely detests elves and spiders. He needs MTN DEW to get through the working day.

A medium- sized creature prone to great ambition, but only when he feels like it.

Explain the process of spiritual strife as we observe the plants.

Continue patrolling for threats. Maybe throw my name into the election for chief, just because.

Enter a meditative state where I receive the wisdom of the spirits and paint them directly onto a nearby rock surface, if available. If not paint on wood.

((Wait, Chatutu will be leader? Dammit.))
((Yup... Ah well, he's apparently rather charismatic, and that's most of what you need.))

There has been a setback though so the field is open for new candidates

((I see there is! Regardless, my character is done with politics :P I'll advise, but the people can choose their leader own their own.))

EDIT:
((Is there a map of this?))
((This is minimalist game. But you can always contribute.))
((It would be an island, with a large desert, a forest in that desert, and a fertile plain at the river delta, which I think is to the west.))
((If you can draw me a very rough sketch I can get a detailed map before terribly long. I'm just not going to be any good at figuring it out from the start.))

Using the skin of the animal, create a pack to carry any meat I do not finish, and a waterskin. Construct a crude spear to help ward off any more wolves and carnivores. Press onward, wondering if I will come across any Forestpeople; they are hardy folk who usually keep to themselves, but perhaps they will be hospitable enough to help out a poor and weary traveller.

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

((Alright, took a week's vacation and found a shitload of stuff on return. Let me get this straight:
-There's bronze age cities out there, we encountered traders from them and looted them when they tried to loot us.
-The painted tribe was destroyed
-We've decided to have a chief
-The bronze people bought knowledge that gave us a boat made of planks

Did I miss anything?))

Elto repeats his advice about chieftains: "The formal structure of our leadership makes little difference. It is a poor council that does not defer to the arbitration of its wisest member, and it is a poor chief who does not listen to the wisdom and views of the rest of their tribe. However, the choice of chiefdom, should we make it, should not be taken lightly. No matter the chief's true power, the choice will weigh heavily on the minds of all."

Leisure speed is fine indeed. But maybe I can go a little faster? After all, plains are not that safe...

Science is always important. But it needs more flaming cats. Can't we build bridge-based catapults and fling flaming cats at the dust and goo?

It's time for the ATHATH Death Counter to increase once more in celebration for the end of the world.

((Nooo how could the tribe's idiot not be the best candidate?))

Chantututu, noticing a change in the mood of his constituents, stops dancing and starts miming.  He mimes the tribe becoming militarily dominant in the area under his wise leadership, and the foreigners being led into a false sense of security by the tribe's unassuming, lumpy leader.  He hopes that his strangely un-jolly platform of intolerance and general hatred will sway the undecided.
