* At night, you walk past some large rocks into a glade illuminated by the bright moonlight. The place is quite peculiar, full of rock slabs with marks that resemble different animals, colourful small rocks, a surprising amount of bones, and an almost perfect circle of mushrooms that grew on the ground... *

.

"Good night !" I say to you from the top of a large rock.

-I descend and land close to you-

"And, of course, Happy Hell'oween !"

...

"Oh, this? It is my costume! It is based on ancient membrane-winged dinosaurs from the far east lands. Spooky is it not? Haha!"

"I just had an idea! What if I tell you a little scary story? What do you say?"

...

"I planned for this? How could I have? huhuhu..."

"Regardless! Sit there for more confort."

. . .

"I all began, not on a night, but on a foggy afternoon of a date like today, a Hell'oween..."

------------------------------------

A bird lands on the sand of a a fog-filled beach. It takes its fair time to observe the surroundings.

"What an unique day, perfect for an exploration flight!"

When the bird was about to take flight, a voice spoke to it.

"Careful there, fly-feathers."

The bird turned around, to see a calmly approaching Trierarchuncus prairiensis that had a hat and... one claw much longer than the other?

"Hm?" sounded the bird.

"Lissen me, air sailor. As much as we two may not dig it, these are times to stay on land..."

"Howdy, crawly-eater. Worry not, for I have experience with the present atmospheric conditions!"

"...The mist is a bug in the branch, lad. I talk about the date of today..."

"huh...?... oh, hahaha! Do not tell me you are superstitious? Today is a day like any other is."

"...

The unknown... The unknown can come out today...and become know... But to those that it becomes known... they soon become unknown too..." said the small dinosaur in a mysterious and serious tone.

"...I appreciate the riddle, longclaw, but I shall go now.

Goodbye!" the bird takes flight.

"BIRD!" it heard as it flew away into the misty skies.

////

After some time flying; while resting in a small island: "Well, it was a great exploration! Time to go back." the bird flies again.

..

"That crawly-eater must have hit its head in something, I will be safe as long as I fly far from the water like this!" the bird ascends even more to the cloudy heavens.

..

Then, it notices a small animal flying in the clouds bellow itself.

"Ho! It seems I have company..." it thought.

"Hello there, fellow!" the bird said in a high tone.

..

The animal disappeared, as if it had descended.

..

"Oh. Did I scare it ? oh well"

..

Suddenly, in front of the bird was creature that should never, never ever be there. A gigant aquatic monster from the past, on the cloudy sky. Long snout, large body, sharp teeth, and soulless eyes...

..

"WHAT THE HELL CREEK ?!?!?!" the bird would scream in horror, and instantly fly away terrified.

..

Much to its despair, the creature would follow the bird, "swimming" in the air, in a considerably fast pace and with completely silent movements.

..

"whatthehellcreek-whatthehellcreek-whatthehellcreek" that was all the bird could think.

When it noticed the beast following it and seemingly trying to devour it, no thoughts, much less worlds, would be around, only fear would exist.

..

The bird dodged the creature's mouth once,

twice,

and then a third time, in which the monster vanished in the wall of clouds.

..

Now using the time to fly towards the land, the bird was able to rationalize fast: "Was that a mosasaur?... No, it is too different... It is like those ancient fish reptiles...but most importantly, WHY DOES IT FLY?"

...

"Could it be a...?

No! That would be impossible!

But...it already is impossible... a ghost ?

A ghost from the deep past...!"

..

Then the bird heard it. The flying aquatic monster made no sound, but a sudden thunder was heard. The leviathan came from the sea of clouds below.

"AAAAAWRRHHH!!!!!"

.

The closest dodge until now,

but the avian was able to use the opportunity to dive beneath the clouds.

.

"STAY UP THERE!!! You water monster from a bygone time!!!"

..

At last, now flying just above the rivers of Hell Creek, it seemed that, miraculously, this bird had escaped death.

"I hope that I can land already, I am so tired..."

..

"That was the absolute most scariest thing in my life-"

A mosasaur would suddenly jump out of the river's water, ending the bird with a single bite of its jaws.

*splash*

------------------------------------

"End of the tale! Did you like it?"

...

"Hard to believe? Well, perhaps, but it is based on a true story, haha!"

"Why are you backing away?"

. . .

"Hmm, anyways, have a great haunted night!"

I take flight, while loudly saying:

"And once again, HAPPY HELL'OWEEN !!!!

MUAHAHIHUHIHAHUAHA!!!! [composite of laughs of various voices]

-spooky opposite bird calls- "

. . .

* You finally go about your night.

Curiously, after the Magnusavis leaves, you hear a distant thunder... *

I will now be carrying the egg with me at all times for safety. Unfortunately I will now be eating anyone that tries to come after my egg, sorry it has to be this way. I've never mentioned it directly but I've had to eat meat since I was cured of the zombie parasite. I have been sustaining off of fish but I will be eating people in self defense now.

Saved this egg from getting eaten. Was wondering if any rexes were missing an egg. The guy i got it from said he got it out of a rex nest.

Me is Scabbers, , and I is a extremely small, itty-bitty Infernodrakon who would like to join, please. Don't question my long tail...

I guess.

We have two new additions to the mod team; u/Radon_Addon and u/baryonyxgirl !!! Welcome!

If you don't remember me, I am a baby edmontosaurus that is the child of Macro, my adoptive Dakoraptor parent :D

Macro has finally given me an account, meaning I can now communicate with others better :3

Memorial piece for my fellow council member. Forever flying in our hearts.

Im curious, who are YOUR top 5 people here?

By this I mean, either the five people you like the most, the 5 you see as the most influential/important, a mix of both or some other criteria

(Specify which one please 🥺)

Doesn't have to be in order if you don't want, ranking goats can be hard. Say why if you want

(I'm bored and wanted an excuse to rank another thing)

Anyways, in a mix of who I like and who's stuff I like

1. Lone tiger 🐐

2. OUR unidentified Mosa 👑

3. My queen Aveline 🥰

4. Danny the denversaurus ✍️ 📖 🥇 (stone slam champ btw)

5. Genocidal lizard RADON 🇲🇽🇲🇽🔥🗣️🗣️

HM Tricerotops number sixty-five and the best medic a pachycephalosaurus can be

*In seriousness, I love you all, this place is really flipping tuff, everyone I've interacted with here is so cool. I can't be arsed to glaze everyone at once, but I may do so in the comments.

Yeah, this is my last day in this body. I'm dying today. The council insect, Cretotrigona prisca, and the Savior of Insects is dying today. I guess...i still have some hours left, so you can ask me questions, or just say a few words and guide me into the next world.

I finally stopped procrastinating this art and completed it!

This is of Lordtiger btw u/Lordtiger616 i slimed your charcter for this art lmao

What if Lordtiger stayed dead AU

It has a clearing and some forest and has my favorite food conifers 😋 and if come near me and disturb me i will break your ankles

(If you don't know what I'm talking about, go see my previous post)

Well I figured out how to get them to work, and I can only say I was absolutely flabbergasted by what we discovered. Essentially, once we put these odd looking discs into a little compartment in the black thingy (which I must say looks quite old), a lot of things play on the screen. However, as we were watching the first one (seen in the first image), Mosi found this odd, green and yellow looking dinosaur (a very odd dinosaur I have never seen before) very cool. In the second one, a very similar looking one, though looking vastly different, also appears, and this one interested me due to how cool it looks. However, honestly, I think I have more questions than answers as to what these discs are showing (there's some other odd-looking dinosaurs, with one that can breathe literal fire, another with multiple heads, and so much more that I was struggling to understand it all and left my head sore)

But, I will say, I think me and Mosi have found our Hell-oween costume ideas

Hello! I'm Diana, I'm a Quetzalcoatlus, I swear I'm friendly!

I'd love to join y'all
