Week 15.
WEEK 15 The past week has been a difficult one, and it doesn't seem to be getting any easier; for the time being it seems the world is stagnating. This much lack of change isn't normal, at least not compared to the first time you've arrived; there are only two possible conclusions to be drawn - either Cyrus has finally succeeded in what he's been trying to accomplish, or some sort of drastic action is going to need to be taken before this world can even begin to be saved. That doesn't mean you have no potential resources, however; outside of a bit of a setback that will hit your group on Sunday morning, the departure toward Iron Island is a reasonably smooth one. Granted, it's a bit odd given that the sailor taking you out there is just as startlingly blank as the rest, but at least he seems to know where you're trying to go, it appears to have been discussed with him in advance, and getting you there is possible. The trip out there by boat will take half of Sunday; hopefully you enjoy being on the open ocean for that long. But eventually a rocky island will fade into your field of view on the horizon, and when you're allowed off the boat it'll become clear rather quickly that the island is very, very large. And with so many massive caverns to go through, it will soon become very obvious that this isn't just going to be a day trip. Finding Riley looks to be a fairly difficult task, but it isn't impossible; furthermore, there may be reasons for hope to be found in the abandoned mines of Iron Island. There are a few people here, and while they seem a little strange still, they also seem to have their spirits a bit more intact than those on the mainland; talking to them will reveal the same difficulties and conversational problems that the other citizens of Sinnoh were experiencing for a while, but they aren't nearly as blank as they used to be... POKEMON AVAILABLE: IN CAVES SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week fifteen of Azume; feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend.] |

[Favilla shuffled up to where Ignis was sitting and tugged lightly on his shirt, the advisor picking her up so the Larvesta could settle into his arms.]
...I don't quite understand it either, at least not when compared to our own Hexatheon. It's not unheard of for the divine to fight amongst themselves, but the way it's been presented makes the lake guardians sound as though they simply aren't on the level of a proper creator deity.
[He frowned, lightly petting the bug Pokemon as he considered the idea.] Maybe...it was that there were three of them working against the power of presumably just one. We don't know Cyrus utilized time, space, and creation when we had our encounter--just the latter of the three. In other words, one god against three minor ones combined. Hardly enough to cancel one another out, but enough to mitigate the damage.

There's also no guarantee that anyone else was protected, save perhaps Cynthia, who's more vague about everything than she really needs to be.

In this case, though... I don't really know what reasons she might have for secrecy. If she provided an explanation on that end, I'd be more understanding. Granted... I haven't discounted the possibility that if one of us ended up captured by Team Galactic, they might be able to wipe our emotions and, thus, any incentive for us to keep secrets from them.
