Week 2.

WEEK 2.

The new week begins with new surroundings.

The city you've been growing accustomed to over the past week is now well behind you as you set out on your journey proper; the terrain still seems rocky and steep here as you move downhill and to the south, dotted here and there with small ponds to the east and rocky outcroppings that you can climb on to the west. There are also large expanses of tall grass here, and the entire route is flanked with tall trees leading off into the forest a short ways. You're more than welcome to explore; just don't stray too far from the group - you wouldn't want to be left behind out here, for any reason.

Wild Pokémon are abundant here, as anyone venturing into the tall grass will discover; they aren't inclined to attack you, however, simply watching with dull, dead eyes as you stumble through the area they've come to call home. The trip is difficult, and it's a lot of walking, but it's not unmanageable; fortunately enough, the route you're on should lead you directly to Valor Lakefront, assuming there are no complications along the way.

From Thursday and beyond, the route takes a sharp turn west; in front of you lies what's clearly the ocean, large rocks jutting out just offshore tempering the waves. It's safe to go in the water if you so choose - assuming you can swim, that is - and the forested terrain has given way to a large beach with patches of tall grass here and there.

Interestingly, there's a house located on the beach; whether it's inhabited or not is difficult to tell. Of course, exploring slightly north of the beach will reveal a path. Maybe it leads somewhere important...

CURRENT LOCATION: ROUTE 213
POKEMON AVAILABLE: NEAR WATER

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY
[OOC: Welcome to week two 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. Don't forget that a write-up is due next weekend!]

[It wasn't, my first bracket just died in the ass, good lord I am not on the A-game today.]

...He probably did, yeah. There aren't a whole lot of safe locations for people in that line of work.

[ It's okay, it's okay. Nobody grades anyone on RP anyway. And if they did, I'd never wanna see mine. ]

It seemed like a hard life. I can't remember how many times I caught him pushing himself too hard, or dangling from cliffs for his training.
bloodspent: (56. the candle from both ends)

Trust me, stay in the trade long enough and you'll start doing that shit for fun.
rainbowlife: smiling, pleasant, small smile (♪ are far behind me)

Somehow that doesn't surprise me. [ If he sounds uneasy, that's because he is. O'brien, please stop hanging off of cliffs and seeing if you can escape weird rope traps before you fall to your death. ]

Anyway, you sound awfully familiar with how mercenaries work. Did you know one too?
bloodspent: (01. cheated and lied)

[He shrugs.]

I've been one for a while now. So yeah, I'm pretty familiar.
