• 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 Mhynt and Nova

    It was a reflex. Mhynt closed her eyes and breathed, shedding herself of any sign of Shadows. She had centuries of practice with this. She wasn't even sure if it was real. She answered Nova first. "Strange strange black black flat flat land land. Pipes pipes banging banging." And all things...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    Mhynt sighed to herself, thinking. She had to play by the illusion's rules for now, so before she went out into the great abyss, she tested a few of her capabilities, starting with basic movement, swings, and of course Teleportation. She tried to conjure her Lunala apparition as well, if only...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    "Ugh--" Mhynt grunted once her balance was knocked off balance from the chains. "What... are these?" But then she recalled what happened before. She had to watch her wording; she had listened to Nova speak to himself--presumably, him--and now... she was... Yes. This was probably the same thing...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    No reply came just yet. Perhaps Mhynt was still composing herself. But, just as Nova exited his illusory floor, it seemed that the reverse was just about to take place... <><><>

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    Just then, something curious seemed to happen. As Nova stepped back, an echo of a Treecko stepped forward from his shadow, detaching from it. The notebook turned black and floated into the Treecko's hands, becoming part of that same intangible silhouette. It walked toward the door, apprehensive...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    And just as quickly, Nova was standing ten feet away from the front of a doorway somewhere deep inside the Castle. There was... a pungent smell in the air, and suddenly Nova felt fatigued and strange, phantom wounds along his body. The air was oppressive and thick. And for the first time, the...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    There was a noticeable pause when Nova explained himself in that way. The person on the other side was either laughing or didn't like what they'd heard. . . . better . . . That was all that came this time, and the voice dripped with dread. . . . back? I . . . can can . . . you . . . turn . ...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    A new errand had appeared in the book, but it was in line with Nova's plan: "Return to T̷͍̀ḧ̸͖e̷̝͝ ̸̬̓K̶̯̉ḯ̵̝n̵̰̓g̴̟̅ and submit your power." . . . Nova Nova . . . repeat . . . your your . . . words . . . maybe . . . will will . . . work? Like before, the street was empty. It was also...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    The tiny thing spattered against the wall, motionless. The other unmoving shadow let out a terrified gasp and then shrank the same way, deflating like an ashen balloon. As if resigned to its fate, the creature lowered its head and waited for the killing blow. "Why did we bother?" it whispered.

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    The moment Nova stuck out his foreleg, the shadowy creature bumped into it. And suddenly, that shadowy creature shrank and shrank until most of him had blown away in the wind, becoming something... diminutive and small. Like Nova had taken all of that power away in an instant. No words came...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    "I know your tricks," hissed the shadowy creature, slamming harder and harder against the shield. "Just do it already! You took them away! Cut them down... they're worse than dead!" Why are you waiting? Slam, slam, SLAM. The blows kept coming, yet Nova felt utterly invincible. Did he even need...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    Nova's eyes were somehow drawn to the notebook like a compulsion. It never left his view or his mind, but... it didn't seem to halt his activity. The silhouettes stared at him, dumbfounded, but then didn't leave the opportunity untouched. One burst from the window and seemed to dig underground...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    "Delivery?" called someone from the other side. The door cracked open. . . . gonna . . . talk delivery ? . . . child . . . trouble? . . . hot water . . . And the occupant on the other side -- another hazy, shadowy creature -- froze in place. Behind him were five others, similarly frozen. One...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    To this, Nova received no immediate reply. As he continued down the road, shadowy figures continued to evade him. Perhaps word had spread, one way or another, of his original aggression. The building was an unassuming one. Perhaps an apartment complex of some kind? The door was unlocked, as it...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    . . . there?! Run! . . . too strong . . . away! The notebook in question indeed had things written in it--notes, errands. So far, there was only one written down. It was an address for one of the buildings a few streets down, complete with a basic map of directions, and the note: "Suppress...

    . . . king? King Twinkie? . . . don't fall . . . seduction . . . what? "At the Castle, obviously. He does not have time for these menial things like quashing usurpers and rebel efforts." He shook his head. "Now, I'm busy. Go." And with that, the Inteleon walked away, though there was the...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    . . . naturally skinny . . . rude . . . Something about what Nova said must have deeply offended the Inteleon because he flinched and hissed in response. Once Nova took the notebook, Inteleon turned around. "Go already, or I'll inform T̷͍̀ḧ̸͖e̷̝͝ ̸̬̓K̶̯̉ḯ̵̝n̵̰̓g̴̟̅ that you're betraying...

    . . . What?! Don't . . . The wind blew, kicking up purple dust in Nova's face, plinking against the metal parts of his beak. It tasted like ash and bile. . . . shadows . . . corrupt you, here? . . . "Just what do you think you're doing?" Someone was behind him. Standing tall, looking...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    The moment Nova showed any sign of aggression to those shadowy creatures, they immediately jumped and screeched in reply, scattering in all directions. Shopping, queued in a line, or behind the stall, it didn't matter. They all fled from Nova like he was a feral, rabid beast. . . . Hello? Can ...

    Whispers of Mhynt and Nova

    Can't tell . . . are . . . The voice seemed to come from nowhere, almost a trick of the mind. It could have been next to him just as easily as it could have been shouted from across the city. Nova walked around what seemed to be an endless street of shadowy people and their daily lives. Every...
