Test 5.
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. |

We know. Even in a friendly battle with a former gym leader of this region, a couple of us were defeated soundly. [She doesn't sound like she laments that, though.] It was an important lesson.
[And beyond that, though it wasn't her fighting, she thought Kayneth and Zelda did their best. More than that, it was something to learn from.]
With that said, while we aren't looking to confront Cyrus, we still can't sit around on our hands doing nothing. Up until now, we've just been trying to help this world, and hope that saves our homes from the same fate in the process.
Since you don't trust Cynthia, would you suggest a different course of action?

[That friend... Given how young he is, it had to be someone his age, right?]
