HALL OF ORIGIN. The Hall of Origin isn't without its accommodations - after all, humans do live here from time to time, with at least one of them a permanent resident, and even with Arceus' release it doesn't see fit to just make the place into the glass-paned OSHA violation that it normally seems to be. The building itself contains more or less anything you would need after an encounter like this one, whether you want to sleep or locate something to eat, or simply exist around the others for a while; the large hall you first entered into is likely the best for the latter, and you're welcome to gather there for as long as you need. ...Any food is going to be vegan as hell, however, because no one is sure what else you expected. Cyrus and all three Commanders are present for the time being, and amenable to being approached; granted, Cyrus is going to remain outside with Arceus like the asocial individual that he is. Meanwhile, Saturn and Mars in particular seem...it's difficult to say whether they seem "better" or not, but they don't seem acted upon by the Red Chain's influence anymore. (Which is likely a good thing, whether they consider it to be such or not.) There are plans to be made, of course, and things to be done; for now, however, feel free to enjoy the present moment. It's been well-earned.

[Alrest has been at the back of Morag's mind for this entire adventure, but now that returning is a reality instead of a goal, she's not quite sure how to think about it. This world is safe, and recovering, but her own home is still in turmoil. What do the others believe became of her by now? It briefly occurs to her that she may not even have a home to return to, but she quickly pushes that thought out of her mind.

She needs to go back and fix this.

While everyone else is making plans and food, Morag wanders to the far end of the hall and looks down towards the Spear Pillar. She's flanked by her team, and speaking rather solemnly to them.]

I will leave it up to you what you wish to do from this point on. I won't begrudge you if you wish to remain here. I will return if...

[She pauses. She doesn't know what the coming months will bring in Alrest, and she wants to be realistic. But then Agatha nudges her hand.]

When I can.

Heading back home, huh? They must need you pretty bad.

[radiantflame]

It's... complicated.

[Her canon had just veered straight into JRPG crazytown, after all.]

Needless to say, my home was in danger long before Team Galactic set their sights on it.

Seems like a theme. Are you gonna be okay out there?
