[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Ventus and Sochi decide to wander up the river a bit farther, Sochi keeping an eye out for pearls or special sand. As she walks the beach, she brings out an Itemfinder to help find lost objects or valuable minerals! All she finds is a few Pokedollar coins, which she hides away in what little she has on.

"You know, Ventus, at first I only approached you because of that beautiful pearl - which I might still try to buy off the Captain later - but I'm kind of having fun, you know?"

Ventus holds up a hand to stop her, because she almost walked right into the biggest Shellder he's ever heard of. It's big enough to swallow a child, lying in wait in the sand, mostly obscured. It has hidden itself since they saw it first. A darkness emanates from its hole, and as they stare in amazement a pink tongue emerges to lick calcareous lips.

"Can you imagine the size of a pearl made by that thing?" whispers Soshi. A Pokeball appears in her hand (where was it before?).

Ventus Initiative: (3) +4 = 7 first
