Week 1.

[azumods]

WEEK 1. As Cynthia had promised, the sun does indeed rise the next morning. Whether you slept or not (and sleeping inside the Pokémon Center you were in before seems totally fine by the attendant), it seems Cynthia kept her word; she left sometime shortly before sunrise, and you haven't been bothered by Team Galactic and those that work for it in the interim. It isn't advisable to return to the headquarters building, however. At least not for the time being. However, a new day does dawn, and with it comes the knowledge that you're in an unfamiliar city, completely on your own. There are several things to be done before you can leave: gathering supplies and provisions, finding maps, obtaining new clothes... Of course, your new "companions" are still with you, and they don't seem willing to leave your side; they'll follow you dutifully, but they still seem...wrong, horribly so, and it doesn't seem to be wearing off. Maybe if you work with them a little...? Try to talk to them, train them, teach them to do things... Who knows? It might do them some good. CURRENT LOCATION: VEILSTONE CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week one 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 this weekend! Feel free to investigate the city as you see fit this week; we ask only that you try to stagger investigations and be mindful of what's already been checked. If you wish to investigate, notify the mods in your comment subject for your top-level and we'll get on it as soon as possible!]

Oh, certainly. [ A castle town set in the mountains... That really does sound amazing ] The Hyrule castle town rests at the northern edge of Hyrule fields, but the castle itself is on an island. Long ago, a moat was dug, but that moat merges with the Hylia and Regencia Rivers, resulting in it feeling much less manmade than it would otherwise.

[ . . . ]

... I am pleased that I can remember.

[Though she doesn't break stride, Emmeryn is quiet for one short moment, like she's giving that statement the time it needs and deserves to settle.]

And a memory shared will be one difficult to lose, so I am just as pleased that you have told me.

[ she was so worried she could have forgotten things - and she did, by the sound of what Cynthia said. Her cheeks color a little at this woman's bearing. It's...

Mmm ]

Yes, I... memories shared to others can allow them to live on. Even when they are lost to one person.

[divinedescendant]

[She hums, lightly, as much in agreement as in consideration—then stops walking, a little abruptly, so she can turn to face Zelda properly.]

Oh, goodness, my apologies, here I am prattling on like this when I haven't even asked your name.

[hyruglyphics]

I did hope to ask yours too.

[ Sheepishly, she shakes her head and then stands of straighter, looking up at the other and says, ]

My name is Zelda.

[divinedescendant]

[Smiling, Emmeryn dips her head in a polite little nod.]

I am Emmeryn. I know the circumstances are strange and the uncertainty weighs heavy, but even so, it's a pleasure to meet you, Zelda.

[hyruglyphics]

It is a pleasure to meet you too, Emmeryn. [ It's weird, she finds herself sounding even more formal than usual. ] Certainly we shall be working together in this, and I look forward to it.
