VERITY

The journey this month has been easier on you in several ways; despite your losses, your numbers have been bolstered by the addition of two more this month, and unlike the unforgiving terrain on the way to Lake Acuity the routes to Lake Verity seem downright hospitable - they're straightforward, the climate is far more temperate, and there are patches of cheer visible here and there along the paths in the form of those brightly-colored flowers, even as you make your way toward the lakefront.

But the lakefront itself is perhaps unsettlingly silent; a reminder, perhaps, of what you're here to do, of the importance of your task.

You'll reach the lake sometime in the evening. The sun isn't down yet, but it looks as though it won't be too long before it dips below the horizon; there's more than enough light for you to see what the lake itself looks like, however - the water is still and clear, to an extent where you can see straight down to the bottom regardless of how deep it gets. There's no bridge or other way to cross over the lake that you can see, but once again there's a large rock formation rising out of the center of the lake and a good-sized opening in the stone, leading to what's likely a system of caverns further inside.

Your exploration starts here, next to the crystal clear waters of Lake Verity; what happens next is up to you.

I should love to ride on her back! I imagine it would be similar enough to being on the back of Bosphoramus.

[ she volunteers weeeee ]

Fine by me. I haven't tried to ride her anywhere, but I know she's strong. She can do it.

[Yeah, it'll be a smooth trip! Have fun, Zelda]

Mind if I ride on her back, too? I know she's a strong friend.

Go ahead.

[With all these people, Kiryu decides to get Ni out of her Pokeball already. Soon there's this large serpent floating in the lake, looking around with some confusion. So...what she gets from all this is that they need her to get to the formation over there?

Well that's easy as long as they don't mind getting wet]

How many at once? Four?

[Ni nods. Four should be enough for a single trip]
