(1)(4)(2)(1)(1)(4) (1)(6) + (3) from Chespin's help. Your fire doesn't grow very large, and requires a lot of attention to prevent it from spreading. Chespin rolls his eyes a little. Anyway, it's big enough to keep Moltres warm tonight.

Are you leaving Moltres alone out in the wilderness overnight or what? The Egg needs to be inside the pyre for at least four hours, preferably eight, and I'm not sure how you'd bring the bonfire inside the Pokemon Center.

Terra was naturally curious to see the Arc Family Book of Secrets, especially since it looked wierd and was all locked up, but not so much he want to ask questions or more info about it. He's not very inclined to speak more than is necessary with Heart right now, and the info in it was either irrelevant to him or would be revealed to the whole group if it was, so that was that.

Once the rare collector introduces Chespin, he gives them a small smile and a formal bow, recognizing their former/suspended status as a Spiritual Leader of Pokemon, before offering them some fruit leather as a gift. He's heard of and meet such kinds of Pokemon before back in his home land, and he firmly believes they all deserved to be given respect and honored for their roles. Simple!

At their big reveal, the sagely monk's eyes widen minutely in concern, before he closes his eyes and *Sighs* .

"More trouble.....not good. Already have Scimitars and Disaster to worry about, so we.......don't need more problems, *Shakes head*. If dangers.....become real, though......then we are prepared. .....Thank you for telling us about this."

Saying thus, and if the pun lover has nothing else of importance to discuss (FYI: Bring up in some way you have the Spell Tag + Life Orb, then Terra will make The Deal for them, so we can get that done), the rugged wanderer takes his leave, and either goes out fishing if he hasn't alread done that, or heads to bed. Tomorrow will no doubt be a busy one for him and the whole group, so getting a good night's rest is crucial!

So pretty! I'd love to have such an ornament to hang into the window. <3 I can see my chara making a lot of carved landscapes to depict sceneries from her journey or her Pokemon.

@Spiritmon, this goes to you.
-----------------------------------------

Shiva can relatively easily pick up Nathan's discomfort around her, but she thinks about it/wonders about for one second and then focuses on what Heart's having on his mind. She may be decent on holding grudges if given reasons to do so, though she's not doing that towards Nathan nor holds it against him. At the moment there are more important things that demand her attention.

That, and she managed to notice that something's off between Terra and Heart, but she decides to not dwell on that or ask questions either. Terra is already offering Chespin some fruit, she'd add a few dried berries for the rare Grassmon.

Unfortunately the natural fae enthusiast is bad, innocent and bad tongues saying even indifferent towards most historical topics, Heart's clan issues occupying his past would fall into that ground. So don't hold it against her that she may not have much to respond or offer in return; even if she'd be happy to help in that matter she's rather clueless how she could help, nor does she really feel like being much of a help towards Heart with that. Cottonee notices this and quickly cuddles up more to her sweet Master to comfort her mildly heavy heart, which earns her thankful strokes in return.

As soon as Heart has spoken himself out, she attempts to put two and two together. "Eh... Well, the nature around here in the Valley is more left alone, especially inside the Safari Zone where Mother Nature rules. There's also the lore of hidden barrows deep down there where unusual Pokemon are said to lurk... Means, it's not too much of a wonder that Earthpower is stronger here? A rainforest once covered the area also, and we met Legendary and Noble Arcanine not too far from here. This place's special in some way, definitely." She's sure and confident about that last sentence, which shows in her voice and body language. An angel feather found by her in the Zone speaks for that as well! 'Special' can have several meanings though.

"....Good luck in your research, Heart. This... is all I can tell you, may you be successful. Take good care of yourself too, alright?" If nothing else needs to be discussed or said, Shiva will soon bid goodbye then. "A...apoligies, but I need to go then. Making and having dinner, meeting up with the other guests of the hostel, sort my latest findings, head to bed early.... We may see one another tomorrow in one way or the other. Good night for you all!" Off she is, and from my side the new Day can start once Windos' Fishing Encounter is wrapped up.

The moment Heart starts talking he has Gallade's full attention.  And thus, he has Nathan's as well.

Given all the hints that Gallade and the other prophetic pokemon have been dropping about how something important is going to happen in Teazel Valley...Heart's news isn't surprising to them.

For Nathan at least, though, learning a bit more about that is useful.  And the fact that one of Heart's ancestors warned him about being sorely tried soon...

Nathan doesn't say anything at first.  Just looks at Gallade, who nods in return.  Yes, something big is going to happen soon.

"...then I guess we'd best be prepared for whatever's to come.  Those kinds of warnings should definitely be taken seriously..."  Nathan shudders a little at the thought of being contacted by a spirit...encounters such as that are rarely purely for the purpose of being pleasant, after all...

For his part, Emolga is quite surprised to hear the group's met Legendary Pokemon!  He can't help but chitter curiously once that's brought up.  He'd like to hear all about that!  He loves a good story!  To which Nathan responds, "Maybe a bit later, Emolga.  It's a pretty long story.  Or rather several long stories, depending on how you look at it..."

Oh, and when Heart says he'll explain more to Spira later, Nathan also asks, "Would you mind if I also sit in on that conversation when you hold it?"  He'd like to make sure Spira is up to date on everything he needs to be.  (@Spiritmon and @Mikaruge108)

Aside from that...well, Nathan doesn't really say anything when Shiva bids everyone goodbye.  And Gallade still looks thoughtful.  And knowing she's going to be staying at the hostels tonight...and probably any future nights they're here...

...well, let's just say Nathan would rather stay at the Center if possible.  Besides, it'll be better on his books and notes if he's indoors.
