• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    A week. Okay. Andre knew already that he would keep it to himself until the very last minute. Not only to find the best way to present things, but also to choose who were the ones he would tell. How many were a few? What was the minimum? Three? The fewer people he told, the better chances he had...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Andre took a moment to contemplate Ridley's words. Sure, maybe it was a little extreme of Andre to jump to the conclusion that he would be killed. After all, one major reason that he did what he did was because most others weren't capable of such acts. But the Wayfarers were a diverse bunch...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    "Kill you?" Andre's snout wrinkled. "Ridley, I'm not gonna kill you. I don't do that. I don't target anyone but abusers." Besides, Ridley had to have been better at combat than him. He wouldn't be able to kill him if he tried. He looked around, but the cave was like a maze. Ridley could have...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    When the walls and ceiling of the cave became visible, Andre sighed out all the air in his lungs. No drowning for him. It felt strange to breathe through the muzzle of a deerling again. And to stand on all fours. And to have no hands. Hands... he should have appreciated them more while he still...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    "Shit," Andre hissed. While he did know how to swim, he didn't know if he would be able to do it in something so horribly cold. "Ridley?" he shouted into the silence. He didn't think he'd get a response, but he might as well try. Anything to keep his mind occupied.

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Thank the gods. Andre slipped out of the door. He also headed for the highest point on the beach for good measure. It did make sense that the whole Powehi thing was lodged in Ridley's subconscious. He hadn't spoken to Ridley while he was under the shadows' influence, he didn't think, but he'd...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    "You think I'd tell everyone if I was proud of it? You think I wanna get lynched?" Shit. Shit. Great, now Powehi's ocean was here. Cold and freezing. Could he get out? Would the door that led him here open to let him out, or would he have to know the pain of drowning before the cave was done...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Huh? What was Ridley saying? Had he... no, yeah, he'd have to have seen what Andre did to his vic- targets firsthand. He had to be mad about that. "Well, it's not my fucking fault what this wacko cave showed you!" Andre shouted. "And do you think I don't know what others would think if they...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Fucking hell. Of course. "You'll make sure of what? I can only hear, like, eighty percent of your words." Probably nothing good. But in any case, this changed things. For one, Ridley was now his enemy.

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Relief. Oh Gods. His secret was safe. But why wouldn't he tell them? Was he afraid of him? Did he want to extort him? He sensed there was more to come...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    "Oh, well, forgive me for not blindly trusting rumors, Ridley," Andre snapped back. He didn't particularly care about the mannequins. "Just tell me one thing. Are you gonna tell the others about me?"

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    A lab. Two mannequins talking. Who were they supposed to be? Okay, maybe Andre should think about this a bit. What was this dungeon trying to tell him? What had he seen? He'd seen the woods, possibly Glimwood Tangle, then a kid's room with their parents - presumably - arguing, then the woods...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Andre waited until he was on the other side to answer, as trying not to slip took all of his attention. And even with that, he'd slipped. And realized that he should have spread his weight by crawling on his hands and knees. He felt like he may have had that thought somewhere in his...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    'Told you this before?' "Wait, what do you mean you told me before?" Andre said. "I haven't talked to anyone on Forlas about this." Well... there was Articuno, but that was hardly a talk, and Andre didn't want to let it slip that Articuno knew about him... if keeping that secret did anyone any...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    It looked like using the tree trunk as a bridge was the way. Andre wanted to make sure it would hold, though. He walked up to it and -- Andre stopped. Shit. That whole problem hadn't gone away, even if he'd been hoping it would have. He took a deep breath and let it out. How could he make...

    Andre picked up the compass. That was neat. Was it pointing north? Or to his next destination? Only one way to find out. Andre headed towards the direction the compass showed.

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Andre had never been the outdoorsy type. He didn't like that about himself - spoiled little silver spoon boy couldn't handle roughing it - but he'd never tried to rectify it, either. He didn't like that about himself, either. How he would recognize a fault in himself and do nothing about it...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Oh, yeah. The voice knew. About the torture and the murder. Guess there was no beating around the bush anymore. He sighed, and prepared to tell the Voice what he'd told himself a million times. "The people I... target are abusers and rapists. I am doing the world a service by doing... what I...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Back in the woods. Now reminded that dungeons can shift, it was relieving to get to a more open space. Andre closed the door behind him. Okay. The voice had seen right through him. Still, he shouldn't say it out loud in case the dungeon would send his words to another Wayfarer, provided this...

    Whispers of Andre and Ridley

    Wait, that was meant for him? Oh, Gods. 'Murder'. His murders. Someone knew of his murders. No, no, calm down. It was surely the dungeon itself. If the dungeon had access to people's minds, it would be trivial for it to find out about his acrylics. Still, that wasn't a good thing. If the...
