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!]

Exactly. I'm curious about why they didn't follow us, but I'm not going to complain.
hyruglyphics: (more expressive!)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-06-12 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
There is some part of me that worries they have a faster route, and intend to simply meet us there.

[ she comments, even as she's collecting a sample of that same plant she photographed ]

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-12 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... Yeah, that's definitely possible. We don't know this world nearly as well as they do, after all. Still, I can't see Cynthia sending us out like that without warning us of the danger, at least. She really does sound like she wants to help us.

[He's still a little wary, but Cynthia did sound sincere...]
hyruglyphics: (wow me)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-06-12 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
I don't either, but ... well, I do not presume her to be all knowing either.

[ Okay, collected! Let's go on to find some more berries or whatever ]
fatalstrikes: (✵ 42)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-12 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
That's fair. We don't really know all that much about her, do we? She might not know a ton about this place either.

[He'll follow, lead the way!]
hyruglyphics: (but will I fix all the)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-06-12 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
Or what Galactic might have done with their new power.

[ But yeah, okay! she's on the look out for more interesting plants to put samples of in her bag ]
fatalstrikes: (✵ 026)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-12 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[He's quiet for a moment, just trailing behind her in silence.]

...We'll figure something out, though. I'm sure of that.
hyruglyphics: (where my smiles at)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-06-12 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
I shall put forth my best effort towards it, and I ... am certain the same is true of everyone else.

[ Probably.

Still, she says it with a confident tone so there's that ]
fatalstrikes: (✵ 010)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-12 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
I know you will. I'm sure everyone'll do what they can, at the very least to find a way to return home.

[Though really, he thinks everyone will be willing to help this world out too, especially after what we've seen of it so far.]
hyruglyphics: (more expressive!)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-06-12 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah, everyone will do that, for sure. She ... oh, here! Here's something that resembles an electric safflina! (specifically, a hollyhock) and given the roots are important here, she's going to rummage in her pack for a spade to get this one. ]

Oh, a safflina! Excellent!

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-12 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
You need any help with it?

[Zelda looks like she's got this, but since he's here he might as well offer.]
hyruglyphics: (I mean mostly I)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-06-13 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
No, I can manage. I simply need to work around the root structure...

[ And she doesn't know if these ones are different so she's going a bit wide... ]
fatalstrikes: (✵ 64)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-13 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
You're familiar with this one, then?
hyruglyphics: (where my smiles at)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-06-14 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I believe so...! Or at least something similar to it.
