These things can be a real pain early on. My brother and I had just started on Valgaro and we where doing good. We had a nice house with a great view of the river, a breeding pair of raptors and a bunch of other various animals. Life was good. one day we decided to explore the other side of the river. At first everything seemed fine, but then on our way back we saw them, two allosauruses blocking our home. We tried to sneak past but they saw us and chased us all the way home. Suddenly they turned and we thought we were safe. But then we saw why they turned. They had found our beloved pets and were attacking them. The battle was fierce and it looked like we might when win. But then one by one our pets showed up in the death chat until only our raptors where left, the prize of our position. By now one of the allosaurus had died and there was just one left. But that one was to much and we lost everything. moral of the story run away from your hour not towards.

We Are Home, We Are One

Chapter One: Wake Up!

I open my eyes slowly and shut them quickly when I feel the sun hit me. It hurt for a moment before I opened them once more, squinting ever so slightly. I didn't notice the tribe looking over me. I didn't remember anything that happened before that... I didn't remember who they were.

"Are you okay, Koda?" One of them asks. His voice was low and a little raspy.

How did he know my name? I push myself up, standing.

Most of them were taller but others were shorter.

I counted…There was about 7 of them.

“That Titan must’ve knocked you around pretty well. Didn’t it?” A female voice chuckled.

“A Titan…?” I thought, my face turned pale. They seemed to have seen the fear on my face.

“Hey, you okay?” Another one asked.

“Who are you guys?” I dodged his question.

“We…” The same guy starts, "We're your tribe..."

I only remember how unholy this place is, but not a single memory of who they are.

I could hear the sea birds above calling out for each other. Parasaurs marched along the beach where we all stood. It was odd and I didn’t believe a word any of them said. Who would? About 4 of them were mounted on Trikes, Equus’s, and Raptors. I looked at my wrist to see the Implant, something I knew. Everything about the Ark was easy to remember.

“Koda…Please, tell me you’re kidding.” The same guy from before started talking again.

“How do you know my name?” I asked, he was taller than me and he acted like he knew me.

“Th- Remember? It’s me…Tamor…” He put his hand on his chest, soon pointing to the other female. “And…Pipo,” then he pointed to the other Survivors and started listing their names.

I still didn’t have a memory of any of them…Not one…

The trees in the forest near the beach started to shake, not a calm shake…More like something was charging out; hunting, no, seeking something.

A loud, fierce roar echoed from the forest. Fearful birds escaped the trees of the forest. The call was familiar so I was necessarily scared. It didn't seem like the people who claim to be "my tribe members" were too scared either.

A carcha burst out of the trees, knocking a few over. It bared a leather saddle on its back with a flag, painted black and white. The animal didn't act hostile, instead it approached me calmly, it's heavy feet shook the ground with each step.

"Dáilo?" I muttered as the creature continued to inch closer. It lowered it's head down to me, purring softly.

They say beaches are low resource/low threat areas right? WRONG! I used to live in one close to a cold region and some of those decided to run around the beach killing everything there. Fine, I hid from them in my tatch base and once they were far enough I thought I was safe, that until another freaking pack started doing the same. I hid my Dilo (Galinha Punk, my beloved only tame, great companion) inside the base and ran through the ocean to hide on some stones. And this was way before they cold spot me. Result: I had to hold my tears and watch in horror as they destroyed the little base I put on all my effort to build, killed my poor boy and kept going like it was nothing! Their levels were way too high, I couldn't fight them, but I was so sad I tried, died, couldn't respawn there cause I had no bed anymore, and couldn't get my stuff because they were near. Of course i waited until they went away, and of course wild dilos destroyed the rest of my stuff. I shall have my revenge!

The Dino of the day:

The Dino of the day is the pegomastax. The pegomastax is found in the dungeon in mobile. Kill it and take its implant so you can resurrect it then tame it. These things steal stuff from you so if u want to tame it let it steal berries from you. Once it’s tamed you can carry it on ur shoulder.

News inside the dex:

We have a impersonator/ hater. This cowardly person impersonated me and Ben bc they hated our stories so they decided to impersonate us. It was a childish and mean act. Here’s a brief message from Paul a former peacekeeper:

“Hi it’s me Paul. I’ve learned a lot after the destruction of Tortuga. The first thing and most important is be nice!! Don’t waste your time being mean to people who haven’t done anything to you! Be a good person! To the impersonator/ hater out there: if you don’t like someone’s story you don’t have to be mean about it and impersonate them like a coward. If u can’t stand their stories then go somewhere else! FanFiction has been alive for years on the dex and it won’t stop now. As the FanFictioners here say: #FF4L.

Daily chapter of the newspaper:

-A runaway’s tale-

Chapter four

The crew member dragged me over to the captain’s quarters. He knocked loudly in the door until it opened. “What is it now Sméagol?! Please tell me that you didn’t wake me up again because you found a dead mouse!!” Captain Piranha spat. Sméagol cowered. “N-no s-sir. I f-found a runaway on your ship sir.” Sméagol whimpered. He pushed me in front of Captain Piranha. “And who are you?” Piranha asked me. “Rachelle Cobraz.” I said firmly. If I was going to die I wouldn’t die trembling at the feet of pirates. “And what are you doing on my ship?” Piranha asked, amused at me.

Ark news:

A few episodes of the ark animated series are out! Watch it now on paramount plus and on prime video.

The Dino of the day:

Today’s Dino is the *drumroll* Liopluerodon! *cymbals crash together*. This creature is very hard to tame. If they are tamed however, they are temporary tames that stay for at least 30 min I think.

-A Runaway’s tale-

Chapter five.

I had to think fast. What to do, what to do? Obviously I couldn’t tell him that I snuck on his ship because I had been planning to kill the former pirate, Josh Swan, the murderer of my mother. What to do, what to do? Suddenly a idea came to me like a wave comes to the beach. “I’ve come to become a pirate.” I said bravely. “I’ve heard of the tales of what you and your crew have done and I have always wanted to be like you!” I said, hoping desperately for the best. The Captain stared down at me with a peculiar nasty expression on his face.

-A runaway’s tale-

Chapter three.

The person who had put their hand on my shoulder spun me around. I faced a old pirate with long white hair and a beard and cruel black eyes. “And who might you be?” He sneered. I gulped and was about to answer but then he interrupted me. “Tell it to the captain because that is who I’m taking you to!” The pirate growled. He gripped my shoulder even tighter and dragged me toward the captain’s quarters.
