• 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?

    A nod of agreement. "Either way," Bellatrix then said. "Those are judgements best reserved for when we encounter one again. For now, it is getting late and you won't be able to fight efficiently whilst exhausted." Bellatrix gestured towards the town with her head and turned to leave. Not that...

    "If they cannot be reasoned with in any way shape or form, then yes, I doubt much would be lost if they were to disappear." It didn't sound like that this "Zapdos" provided anything major in terms of Sainthood either way. "Did those who encountered this Saint notice any hint of either Radiance...

    "People getting power they do not deserve is a common theme here, it seems," Bellatrix added ruefully, very clearly on the same page. "I am all for cutting them down to size if they prove unworthy of those abilities." The Cipher admins came to mind. She did not know what their ultimate fates...

    "I do not doubt that. He was encountered before in Blaguarro and played the fool to make himself appear nonthreatening. I would be... immensely concerned, moreso than I would be now, if it was not an act." Bellatrix nodded at Mhynt's question. "Over the communications. Between it and the...

    "Depends on the world and the person. It may be worth to take a group of known humans and then ask who may be able to understand him the next time we encounter Owen," Bellatrix said. "Hopefully, the next time will be the last under Alexander's influence."

    Bellatrix crossed her arms in thought. "It's the most likely explanation, yes. But why only now of all times?" she asked. "The quarry was not the first time a human crossed paths with Owen, after all."

    "Not a lot," Bellatrix admitted. "Perhaps the most significant was that I was once human and that, despite my current appearance, I was old. Very old, although I imagine 90 years is a drop in the bucket compared to half a century or so." A curious tilt of the head followed Mhynt's next...

    "That it belonged to someone I knew but had forgotten," answered Bellatrix. "And the number of candidates from the fragments I have recovered are very few." She looked at the blade thoughtfully, watching the interaction between it and Mhynt's - she definitely felt something but wasn't able to...

    "As of late?" Bellatrix drew her own blade in response, holding it just in front of her. Spectral energy danced on its edges before it froze and solidified. She lowered it then brought up her off-hand, revealing a fine dagger made from that very same ice. "An extension of the freezing aspect of...

    Bellatrix straightened herself with a sigh of her own, dispelling the illusion. "We do, don't we? Ironic then that I thought this mission would be an opportunity to clear my thoughts of what was happening back there but its only made me think about it more." There a brief flicker of sadness...

    "None that I know of. It could have been a sign, a lucky coincidence, or perhaps even an extension of the Tree." She certainly hoped that it wasn't the only one on her world given that she had accidentally swallowed it - a detail that she didn't exactly feel comfortable sharing. "Similar to a...

    "It would probably easier to show you," Bellatrix said, dispelling the miniature shadow to focus on the ground before her. The shoot flickered into view, stem and leaves aglow with a bright light that emanated a soft multi-coloured (though predominantly red) glow. Glittering moss that reflected...

    "Recently, yes." She glanced at Mhynt and after taking a moment to find her words, continued, "One that had formed not too long ago and within, there were many things that I had never seen before. Such as living shadows - although different to what we saw in the quarry - and a shoot that glowed...

    "I have to," answered Bellatrix with a nod. "Because if I don't, it gives more ground for paranoia and uncertainty to run rampant and if at least one person can keep a level head, then the entire group can remain grounded. I am always trying to be that person." She brushed the hair out of her...

    Bellatrix shrugged. "It became secondary in light of more... pressing matters. Some worlds, like this one, just seem more open than others, I imagine mine was more reclusive. You have an entity akin to Powehi in your world? A bit of a common theme as well it seems." For a moment, the zoroark...

    "Not the first time I heard that tale. Did Alexander have anything to do with it?" asked Bellatrix. She didn't know what a 'Lunala' was but the concept of a light being sealed away into a void was more than familiar to her. "Even still, my point stands. The idea of multiple worlds existing in...

    "I cannot say I know what he thinks," Bellatrix replied, nodding along to all the concepts Mhynt was throwing at her. At this point, learning about these sorts of things was just another Tuesday for her. "Perhaps Betel had a strong grip on you or Owen was simply in the wrong place at the wrong...

    "So there is history between those two," observed Bellatrix. "It certainly would make sense if Owen was a persistent thorn in Alexander's side although I do not see why both would not be motivating factors," she then added. There was a small pause as the implication struck Bellatrix. "However...

    "Yet they can be retrieved, can they not?" Bellatrix countered. "Ignatius, the drapion, those two guards, all out of his grasp. Would that not dent his power?" She felt little need to point out how they handled the direct encounter with him, seeing that the rescued souls made for better, more...

    "I see. Well, it is at least better than the alternative." Bellatrix glanced at the horizon. "Almost nightfall," she answered. "So you have been here for quite some time then. And I thought that I had intensive methods of training," she said, tapping the hilt of her own blade with a small...
