Hey guys. It’s Ben. Finally caught up on the entire lore of Dododex Achatina Stories Section. Actually captivated me, wow. So many people and faces with so many backstories and tales of their own. Fascinates me to think that 8 billion entire people on this planet have their own rich history and story to tell, and that we are but a sliver of said number.

2020, year of Dodo Tales

2021, year of Red Pike

2022, year of John’s Adventure

2023, year of The Obelisk

And I’ve gone through it all. I’ve read through every single message. It’s like I know you all by heart now. And part of me regrets not coming here sooner. I shouldn’t have given up so easily, back in May.

And, uh, something strange occurred. I can’t find The Obelisk Chapter 1 or Dodo Tales Episode 1 anywhere in the stories section of Achatina. Concerning.

Also did my reading, I’m halfway through Heroes of Pandora and I gotta say I actually like it a lot. I like the idea of perceived weak creatures fighting against a bigger threat, and I like all the characters’ personalities interact and conflict with each other at times. My favorite character so far… that’s a hard one, I like Ping even though he’s kinda dumb. Can’t wait for his character arc, if he has one.

Also just finished Chapter 84 of Obelisk. I enjoyed it even though there wasn’t much plot progression as the other chapters, or character development, but it was still fun to see the other characters interact with each other. Also finally seems Crimson is warming up to Rust, at least by a little bit.

That’s all. - Ben
