Week 13.

[azumods]

WEEK 13 The trip to Celestic Town is an unconventional one, though it's infinitely faster than walking and doesn't leave everyone feeling woozy in the same way that teleportation does. The town itself is a small one, though it's scenic, and there's a sort of beauty to it that's very rustic in nature; it's surrounded on both sides by mountainous routes that you're welcome to go on to both the west and the east, though it wouldn't be recommended that you venture too far out, seeing as they can be on the dangerous side for those who are unfamiliar with them. It seems Cynthia was right about one thing - there was certainly an incident at Lake Verity that went off almost as soon as you left, another of those deep pulses echoing through the surrounding area; it seems that whatever Mesprit did can be felt by the region as a whole, given that Celestic Town and the surrounding areas seem to have been affected as well despite being so far east of the lake. Cynthia herself can be found throughout the town for the duration, should anyone want to speak to her. Sometimes when left to her own devices, she can be seen in the company of a little girl who looks very similar to herself; sometimes she's with a pair of people much older. Either way, the family resemblance is strong. Lucas is here as well; he's still willing to speak to anyone that wants to, though he seems a bit subdued. Either way, it's been a long, harrowing trip so far; hopefully spending some time here will help to rejuvenate you.

[Ignis' training outside the city had begun to go a little more smoothly since he'd spoken to Lucas; his directions were more specific and his team working a bit more cohesively for it. However, that also meant that occasionally a Larvesta using Flame Charge would streak past like a small localized meteor, or a Chimecho's Heal Bell sounding just a bit too enthusiastic. Gods help him, it's like babysitting Noctis, Gladio, and Prompto all at once.]

[...He had to admit that something about Cynthia still bothered him, even if he'd perhaps been more confrontational than was called for. Maybe it was projecting, maybe it was unfounded suspicion, maybe it was a thousand other things he could have been overreacting about--but even knowing that he couldn't help being wary of her. He'd just have to speak a bit more cautiously from here on out, that was all; hardly any new concept. For now, he distracted himself by resupplying at the shop, and later in the afternoon leaving an old standby at the Pokemon Center. Even then he seemed a little lost in thought, more following Hemera's guidance automatically than navigating the town through his own mental image of points A to B.]

[Sometime around sunset he'd inevitably seek out Noctis, approaching with a light hand on his shoulder once the advisor tracked down the unmistakably familiar footsteps.]

A moment, Noct?
