• 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?

    Nova received an appreciative nod in reply as Bellatrix's own form of waving him off while she finished her drink. She had already paid for her food and drink upfront so she could speed off immediately the moment she was done. She was eager to continue her illusion training once she managed to...

    Bellatrix sipped her drink having finished her meal. "Indeed, I can see it for myself here on Forlas. Perhaps one day my world will receive that level of technological advancement without the need to scavenge." She gave Nova a polite nod, beginning to feel the strain of maintaining an illusion...

    "No," Bellatrix answered. "The world I came from is similar to this one, with no humans and plenty of Mystery Dungeons. Humans are, however, a bit of a legend there although the stories surrounding them are... odd." She leaned forward. "There, the word for 'human' and 'demon' are one and the...

    "Now where have I heard that before?" Bellatrix quietly asked herself, not realising that she was beginning to space out. The term 'pokémon wielder' had rung a distant bell. She had been familiar with the concept of a trainer, even in the depths of her emptied memories. After a bit of an...

    Bellatrix leaned back with a thoughtful hum. Human-made, huh? Though she also supposed it varied from world to world. "So it's like any other weapon then," she mused, rubbing her arms together, tracing the form of her gems beneath the illusion. "Not what they are but how they're used. Perhaps I...

    A nod then a curious tilt of the head followed. It seemed that there was an extraneous step in that progression. "That truth being? Even the dark ones disguise themselves more often than not where I'm from."

    "Ghost-zoroark, I mean," Bellatrix corrected. "Where I am from, the idea of a ghost, any ghost, being the spirit of the dead is simply folklore, although, nothing to say that the myths about curses aren't true." She cringed slightly at the mention as her mind called forth memories of the number...

    I should have, maybe I am— another shake of her head. "No, I don't believe so but that technique is known to me. Functions similarly to Hex with the added benefit of debilitating your foe with enough luck although personally, I prefer the latter," Bellatrix explained. "It strains far less and...

    Bellatrix nearly sputtered, now incredibly thankful that she was beneath the guise of an illusion lest she give away the fact that she had never evolved prior to this point. Trying to keep it natural, Bellatrix shook her head. It was technically true, zorua certainly didn't have them, and it...

    Bellatrix tapped the sides of her glass, she looked deep in thought. "Do they feel like the genuine article?" she asked. "Because if it's that and not just a resemblance..." She shook her head. "As I said, I have no clue what they are so I couldn't tell you if they were real or if the Forlasian...

    "Perhaps not to Forlas but there has to be a reason why its visage - one that seems to bear negative connotations in multiple worlds given Koa's reaction - attached itself to me. They even influence how I use the move Embargo." Bellatrix said with a sigh. "The problem is that I haven't a clue...

    "Hmm, I can only hope you'll be able to escape that situation when all this is said and done. And a dragon made of light? That sounds similar to a key figure in a predominant legend in my world." She didn't add much more to that, although something else caught her attention. "Those chains," she...

    "Ah, designed depending on the function?" Bellatrix asked. "Makes plenty of sense if the blueprints are adaptable." She leaned forward. "It's an interesting question, what makes something designed as a machine alive, how a spirit could form within though that seems more a question specific to...

    Bellatrix let out a nod of agreement. "There are still many things for them to get used to, if I were to guess, evolution tends to bring those feelings out to the forefront and if not now, certainly later. That snivy, Kimiko, will eventually have to learn to navigate the world without legs, for...

    "Far from a bad choice," taking a sip of her drink. "And do enjoy it." Her ear flicked as she considered his question. She assumed that Nova simply thought that she was a zoroark prior to her arrival on Forlas. Nobody here knew about the human thing except her given that she saw little reason...

    "I see," Bellatrix replied. "Well, since you're already here I have no qualms if you decide to sit next to me." There was a slightly awkward pause. Small talk. Not exactly her forte but she could adapt. "I take it that it's been quite liberating for you, the removal of that mask, I mean," she...

    Well, it had been going well up till now. When Bellatrix noticed one of the chimeras approach - Nova based on that pelt - she couldn't help but jolt slightly in surprise. Thankfully, most of it was concealed beneath the illusion making it easy to save face. "Yes, thank you," she muttered in...

    Threadmarks: Ch04: A Chat Over an Illusion

    Practice took on many forms. Whether it be a physical spar, a quite meditation or the building of a skill. Often, it was in a zoroark's best interest to use their illusion ability regularly lest they become unconvincing and there was no better way than attempting to mass-fool an audience. And...
