Test 9.
SPACE The base in Eterna City is neither as large nor imposing as the Veilstone building; however, you've likely noticed by now that it's just as odd-looking, if not moreso. Located in the northwestern portion of town, it stands at the epicenter of the spatial disturbances plaguing the city; it doesn't seem unaffected by them - there are parts of it that seem...out of place, the building itself just as patchwork as the rest of the surrounding area - but it still seems structurally sound and the door is still in place and looks like it belongs to the original building. So it'll probably take you where you want to go upon walking through it. Probably. That said, while it's not the best idea to kick down the front doors and hope no one notices, it doesn't seem that you have much of a choice; unlike the Veilstone base, there doesn't seem to be another entrance. So it's either front doors or nothing; hopefully there isn't anything too hostile immediately inside. There don't seem to be any guards stationed outside the building, at least - it seems that they're staying inside just as much as the locals are. Either that or they have other reasons for not being around. On the one hand, Dialga may have given you some idea of what you're likely in for eventually; on the other, Palkia is an entirely different creature, holding dominion over another aspect of the universe entirely. Hopefully you've steeled yourselves, either way; best of luck to you. |

...Heatran's still not having a good time, but the effect is immediately apparent - she goes from being really mad and trying to murder everyone to just sort of... stopping. Blinking a bit. Looking around at everyone like she's seeing them all for the first time. She looks so confused, give her a moment.]
no subject
[Chazuke will step on her if she doesn't, but thankfully she closes her mouth and ends her attack, huffing smoke through her nose. She takes a few steps back along with Mizushi to take a breather, panting heavily.
Oh god please let it be over...]
no subject
Either it stopped or we're all dead. I'm presuming and hoping the former.
no subject
...Hello? Do pardon us...
[are you. gonna do a violence again, friend]
no subject
...After a moment she'll turn around and make another rumbling sound; it seems like she wants you to follow.]
no subject
...I...think they want us to follow them?
[...Camilla is tentatively going to follow along, her Pokemon very close in tow, but she's looking at the others. Should they...?]
no subject
no subject
...I think so. It seems....different, now that the chain is gone. Like it understands us.
no subject
[let's just call back highwind and sonantis, both of which need a nap badly.]
no subject
Alright...let's go, then.
no subject
And there is some stuff to explore, from the look of it. The cavern is still the same back here - all rocks and some pools of lava you can easily avoid - but there's something definitely out of place here.
It looks like machinery, at least it was machinery at one point. It's all been smashed up. Some of it is melted, some just looks like a very angry Pokémon stomped on it, but either way it's impossible to tell exactly what these machines were for.
Among the ruined machines you'll find something that's still intact, however.]
no subject
...Goodness, were they using all of this to attempt to make that chain?
[It's kind of a horrifying concept, honestly, but Camilla does look over to see what's still intact.]
...Wait, what is this...?
[Let's get a closer look! Camilla will try to signal the others over too, since she's. Bad with this stuff, honestly.]
no subject
It looks like it's probably not going to be making anything else any time soon, if that's the case.
no subject
[Heatran seems to have done some good work at ensuring that much tbh]
no subject
no subject
Besides, you do have another group to meet up with and a legendary to deal with. It's best to leave studying the mysterious technology for later. It's all yours, though! Heatran clearly has no interest in it.]

...
Rey is totally confiscating that once they're out of here, Clefairy why]
no subject
Rey, keep this close, won't you? This seems to be something similar to what Maylene gave us, back on Lake Valor.
[...]
We should try to reconvene with the others, and see what is happening.
no subject
[She still has Maylene's teleporter safe and snug in her bag, so the Mysterious Similar Device will go right next to it.]
There. We can look at it properly when we find the others, perhaps.
no subject
[Let's get out of this place, then--Camilla's gonna see if we can all head back in the way we came, maybe? Have the stairs reappeared, or are we gonna be getting creative...]

Portus has been quietly following you guys for a while now, but he hasn't actually said much of anything or done much of anything other than save Clefairy at the last second. When Camilla mentions regrouping, however, he seems to remember something, teleporting out of sight for a few moments.
He comes back with Sena and Monta, both surprised and disoriented from the sudden change in locale.]
H-Huh? What? Portus, where did you even go-
[He looks slightly singed, but otherwise alright. Hey, there, Sena. How ya been?]
