The Terrible Demise of Tortuga.
Prologue 2. (First prologue is in achatina)
Aaron Buckleshoot was a citizen who lived in Tortuga. His wife had died giving birth to their last child Joe. He had a daughter named Amara who married a baker named Peter and they had two children. Justin and Elizabeth. His son Joe married a woman named Amanda. They had two children, Aaron Jr. and Olivia. Their whole family lived close to the docks in a boat house. (Don’t ask) there wasn’t a lot of room in the city so they decided to live together. Even though it was crowded it was cozy and homey. Their house was connected to the city by a bridge.
Aaron woke up one cloudy morning. His alarm clock was ringing noisily. He heard Joe groaning from the other room. Aaron got up every morning to feed the animals he took care of. Aaron was the animal caretaker and vet in the city. Although most the animals he took care of he owned. Sitting at the edge of his bed was his hound Troy. Troy was a rare breed that was a cross between a German shepherd and a wolf. “Morning Troy.” Aaron said sleepily. Troy barked. Aaron nodded. “I know, I know, morning chores. Quickly he got up and change into work clothes. Then he headed into the animal’s room. Waiting to help him was Elizabeth and his other hound Gabriella(yes, I named the hounds after Troy and Gabriella in high School Musical) Elizabeth was still in her nightgown and was clutching a teddy squirrel to her chest. Aaron smiled. “Morning Elizabeth.” He said to the little girl. “GOOD morning Grandpa.” Elizabeth said sweetly. “I see you brought Steve(he motioned to the teddy squirrel),you ready to start feeding?” He asked. Elizabeth nodded eagerly. First they fed Ol’ Betsy the sarco bc she could get very hangry in the mornings if not fed. Then they fed Archie the archaeopteryx, then Scoundrel the pegomastax, Diana the shinehorn, Jax the araneo, Carmen the titanboa and finally last but not least their family of jerboas.
“Run along now Elizabeth you need to wash up for breakfast.” Aaron told her. She ran off. After he fed Troy and Gabriella he washed up and headed to the dining room/kitchen/living room. (Hey I said the houses in the city where small.)There his family sat. Aaron sat down at the head of the table then bowed his head and prayed: “Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for this day and for our family and thank you for providing for us. Amen.” He prayed. “Amen.” They all said. Then they began to eat their pancakes, bacon, and eggs. “Lizebeth, Lizebeth, can i please have da syrup?” Justin asked. (Justin was only four and he adored his big sister. He couldn’t pronounce her name though so her just said “Lizebeth”. They were the best of friends.) Elizabeth passed the syrup to him. “Here you go Justin.” She said. “Lizebeth, Lizebeth can you please pour the syrup?” He asked. Elizabeth obliged. “Tank you.” He said. Elizabeth smiled. “So dad, did you know there’s a new family coming here?” Amara asked Aaron. Aaron looked up curiously. “No.” He said. “Yes, there is. It’s a family of…seven actually. The peacekeepers have told everyone to not tell them about the night protocols (every night in the city you had to stay in your houses after 8:00 pm and turn out the lights by 9:30 or you could get arrested.) I don’t know why…” Amara said. But Aaron knew why whenever he had first come to the island with his wife a long long time ago nobody had told them the protocols either and they would have gotten arrested if it hadn’t been for Ol’Betsy. The guards were so scared of his creatures that they didn’t mess with them. But Aaron doubted these new people had a sarco. He’d have to warn them secretly. Aaron smiled grimly. “I’ll go visit them.” He said. “Dad…” Joe began. Aaron turned and looked into his son’s white eyes. (Joe had got a disease when he was just a baby and though he was left unharmed from it, it had left him blind.) “Don’t worry Joe, I’ll be okay.” Aaron said.

More Silver Coloring Tips
okay, but, what the shuck is going on here, who is Tina (rip if it was real tho), who is dtg, I needa read allo’ this lore to get caught up, seriously tho, this silver coloring tips section is completely bizarre.
Feels like I’ve discovered an ancient landmark in Dododex.
A hidden community hidden away in a random place.
Arguing and chatting on the most random subjects.
I think they even made a discord.
Fascinating to know Dododex isn’t just a wiki for some, it’s a community.
-SomeGamerGuy, the stupid friend.
5 years ago this was me. Bruh I'm in college now...
-Dilo Girl, I still live!
jesus, i used to write in this thing in like 2022, looks like a nuclear fallout now
I will be continuing and revamping The Righteous.

Sometimes I look back at all the arguments we had back in the day here and I just cringe
DTG here again on behalf of Bob.
He deleted dododex but may return.
He appreciates any positive comments and is glad people are still writing.
-Dodo Tales Guy
DTG here.
I saw The Advocate's response and I'd like to explain some things.
Firstly, I take full responsibility for my past mistakes. I undeniably hurt the community with my naive actions. I was incredibly immature.
I apologized to PM about the argument we had years ago, but forgot to apologize for my other actions.
I'm sorry for aggressively promoting the discord and encouraging people to migrate to it. I shouldn't have pushed something that only certain people could use.
I'm also incredibly sorry about how I spoke of people and their writing. It was childish and I regret it. The only writing I currently dread is my own past writing.
Yes, most writers here can write stories FAR superior to Dodo Tales. Dodo Tales was pretty awful and I want to implode whenever someone reminds me of its existence.
Regarding my status in the community, I am currently uninterested in fanfictions in general.
Regarding other OGs,
do not blame them for my actions. Bob, snek, CL1, etc. simply trusted me. They are not responsible for what I have done. I also cannot recall them insulting newer writers as I did.
Additionally, I don't believe they are morally obligated to participate in the community or read any new stories. They (as far as I'm aware) have lost interest, and we are all free to leave the community at any time.
I've made an effort to improve as a person over the years and I hope you can all forgive me.
Also, please tell me if I've forgotten to address anything. Im sure I have.

P.S.
If you're wondering what we talk about in the discord nowadays...
nothing. It's literally just two people playing wordle over and over. It died.
There's an active discord server called Club Parrot that has some writers in it, but I'm not involved with that server.
DTG, You are still very well known within the dex, however, I wouldn’t be too sure if you are seen in a good light by some.
I am here to say this to you though. You are one the reason for this place’s demise, you as one of the main foundations didn’t cultivate when you could. You didn’t stand for those who needed it, you left entirely to a site that only available to those who make an account. No one else shall see or know what you speak or do. Then you only appreciated the works of those from your time or those who rivaled your own works. Therefore, you and many of the others, fell. Either coming in once a year or just falling into obscurity.
Something I find ironic is that when you once mocked the newer writers for sounding like the written work of ten year olds in a joking manner, which you claimed to be nothing more than light hearted jokes although from the conversation seemed to be more of mockery. But what I find funny is that you seem to be younger than most of those you “joked” about, which by means, doesn’t aid that their writing is simply better than your last pieces to DodoTales, which wasn’t that far separated from the newer writer’s writings.
But what I find most disturbing is that you didn’t even CARE when it happened. No apology, no forthright response to the matter, no claim of falsehood. The only one who did come was Bob, to which he apologized and set up diplomatic relations, bless him for his actions of trying to make things right… You came in AFTER diplomatic actions occurred like nothing happened and just claimed you were going to continue DodoTales. Which also didn’t see fruition.
This only seems to prove the claims of “Ben”.
NOW TO ALL THOSE HERE. I stand unaffiliated with neither side of the matter. I stand not with Achatina, nor with the dyes and OG, or even the “HATERS” and “Fanfictioneers”. I wander as though I were a Homo Deus. To wander the universe of the dex until I hit that fateful point where I go beyond this universe that is the dex. And cease to exist.
I have a statement to say to Achatina too.
You may act better than the OGs, you may not talk behind others backs like the OGs once did, but you are no means better. For one, seem to hold a bitter resentment against OGs, while you say you forgive, you never speak of them, nor celebrate their actions they had made that were indeed good. Not only that, but you seem to fall slowly in the same demise as they once did. That being, you don’t cultivate anymore, or as much as you use to. You slowly have disappeared from your own community, making your own decision to go to a site that while is more inclusive to those who lack access the ability to sign ins, allowing for all of dex to see what you speak of. But it is still exclusive to those who want to join in, because they need to make an account. As much as you don’t want to hear it, you are making the same mistakes as the OGs did so long ago. And who knows, maybe one day, there will slip, and you’ll become the new OGs to the next new writers. As those who ignore history, are doomed to repeat it.
Here is where I give my advice TO ALL.
For the OGs here that still come.
Do what is needed from you, if you sought to come and see what things are like since you last came in. Read the stories that are here now, especially before judging, interact with the new writers more than once a year, maybe be more apart of their communities, and not just your own here. Try to learn from them, or teach them if they need it. Try to make an attempt at this, genuinely.
For the newer writers,
FORGIVE… not just with your mouths, or your thoughts, but with your hearts. Saying you do so, but pretending they don’t exist or they don’t matter in your era of existing is no means forgiving. It’s barely considered tolerating. Forgive truly and honestly. And do as I said unto the OG writers. As the same can work for you too.
Instead of existing as two separate groups that never interact, maybe you both can work together, interact with one another in both positives and negatives as one. To make a better, more prosperous community in the dex. One that shares the same, love we all came to find within Ark and the dex. Love and Passion in a game and story. Maybe then there will be a truly thriving community that exists for years to come.
But maybe no one will listen, maybe no one will take my heed, we. May only see some come once every year, and others once every month. And then see a new dawn of young writers who have the passion to build their own community. And they’ll repeat this history as though doomed from the beginning. Or maybe the dex Fanfiction will die with the end of the Achatina Writers. It’s the choice of the Dyes/OGs here and Achatina Writers in Achatina though, not mine to carry. As I will continue to drift through the universe, I call the dex.
I have spoken.
