I'm such a fool. Such a fool. A fool. A fool.

Let me start at the start. The start? Where would that be, you ignorant sap? Where do you put the start, huh?
I love her. That is the start; like any good start, that decides the end. The end is that she's gone, like Payton before her...And I'll likely never see her again, not in flesh and not in truth. I knew this would happen. This is why I never wanted to be in love with her; this is why I never said anything.
Fool that I am, it changed nothing.

And so the end is I sat among the flowers, weeping like a child. I buried my head among the flowers, and I wished I was never born a deer. I wish I had never seen deer running, because then...Then she'd have gone through her life happily, never having known that I existed. I'd have never known of her. All my feelings would have had another end.
Take me back, blossoms. Take me back. Let me abandon all this petty social existence to the tracking of seasons with my sap, the endless waiting for spring -- but a spring that comes! A spring that will always return (I could have waited forever, if I had the hope, of a certainty one day)... Let me abandon heatache for the softly-scented world and the certainty of shuffling with the wind in my leaves. Please. Please. Let me rot and devour me.

Leaves and flowers fall off my antlers in droves, flash-freezing in a private winter.

Deer wandered by; I wanted them to leave, and tried not to engage them much. They indulged me, and left...Still, I felt it was too crowded. Too public, too intrusive. I went to de drinkplaats, where very few deer go, for one reason or another, and hid myself in the fountain.

Reed came to see me. I...I didn't want him to see. He must have snuck up on my while my head was down. I didn't want anyone to know. Be a squirrel, make him think it's OK... Plunge my face in the water, taste the magic running onto my tongues, pretend that the wet spots on my cheeks is simply water...

How do I picture

Instant prt scr doesn't work, I pressed P, something happened, but how do I find the picture I took?

I found someone with a similar name in the game. COMPLETELY SIMILAR NAME. AAAAAAA

Gosh, I feel like I'm gradually dropping out of here. Well, things happen- it's as if the people you know are steps in a staircase, so when you're trying to get back up that staircase to reach TEF again you can't because those people aren't there. Thus, you fall back down, or enter into the Forest looking for a ladder, but never finding it.

But depressing things aside- the fact remains I don't drop by often. Little, if at all- the "The Endless Forest" homepage link on 'Most Visited" has been dropping down a lot of ranks. However, there's a reason for that.
Perhaps I'm on the younger end of the spectrum- but that's good, because now I can ask older players for advice. I am choosing between colleges, and have the option of staying at home and commuting via train or going to one about 6 -7 hours away. In all honesty, I would like to go away, but I feel uneasy because if I stay at home I will only have to pay about 6,000 per year opposed to 20,000 per year. Both are in-state. My family is doing well financially, but I don't know how much I will be able to work for and pay off myself.

What's your opinion? How was it in your first years? Sharing experiences helps I know there are some college students in TEF.

I love this game, its peaceful except for the occasional fawns calling, its got beautiful scenery and its fun to explore. I hope that this game will keep going and not have to end.

well, the title is pretty clear... so

yeah.

hadou's voice is this color

for my Hadou & xixi's Doll face,
and who ever else joins ouo

hadou silently swept through the dark forest, avoiding the small patches of sun filtering through the leaves and branches of the thick trees above. this was the second time venturing into this odd forest, curious to find out more. his paced slowed as he came to a small clearing and a lone massive oak tree. it was hallowed out and dead, but its leaves were still green and the feeling of life was more powerful near it.

hadou made his way to the tree, his strange markings glowing a bright red, the color of caution. he did not trust this forest, or understand most of what was inside of it, which made him nervous. his white eyes examined the tree as he circled around the diameter of the dead oak, looking it up and down. he stopped at the mouth of the hallowed tree, taking a step inside.

he spun in a slow circle, his head looking up into the structure. his ears twitched towards the mouth, and his clear grey eyes darted to the opening. it was beginning to rain. he sighed, his eyes turning back to staring down the tree.
" I'll leave once the rain settles," he told himself outloud.

hello i was playing TEF and i saw some fawns chaseing a mini deer they got close stamped and reared up etc what in the world were they doing?

Ello! My little Jacob lost his mini spell. If anyone could help get it back, that would be great. He'll be sitting in the mushroom patch by the Pond. Thank you!

I also need a DOTD Mask, though I understand only those with am older version can cast it. XD
