[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

"So there are, Nathan! I didn't expect to see them so soon, outside their native region, but Chesire seem to be chock full of fascinating experience. I couldn't have picked a more perfect place to conduct my research, to be honest!"

The Vapor Fall, cascading hundreds of thousand of gallon of water, sending out a massive screen of mist as it as it makes contact with the river bellow. The dearth of Water type Pokémon, roaming up and down the coast, spraying any unfortunate trainer. Surroundings where humid, due to the sheer volume of moisture that was statured both the earth and air. It was quite different from Route 1 and its scenic pastures and easy going creatures, human or not. Overall, it was a pleasant if sticky place through journey through, so the group should not have too much of a hassle (or at least he hopes so.).

'Reshirem bless that this area isn't like the swamp we passed through, though. While this place makes me sweat, its at least not filled with wizards and highly explosive Pokémon. May the scimitar who creature that hell hole rot from his own blast magic!' Ventus though to himself, cursing out that vile arch mage in his head. He knew, somewhere deep in his heart, that the enclave of sorceres would come back to pester them once more. 'Well, now we know who they are, and are better prepared for the type of threat they pose. If they thought Apsis was a problem, wait until they see her regal majesty now!'

As he was about to discuss his plans with the group, his eyes happened to catch something floating down the river. It looked like a tophat, bobbing merrily in the water as it continue its journey to the ocean. The researcher was about to dismiss it, until he noticed a furry blue mouse pop out of the cap. He could, even from all the way over from his current position, feel the fear emenating from it, and could faintly hear it squick in desperation. 'Oh dear! It looks like some poor creature has gotten marooned in the river! I have to tell everyone!' Ventus thought, quickly growing alarmed for the unknown creature's safety.

Shaking Nathan shoulder, he pointed over to the river, right as the trapped Pokémon was making it way across. "Nathan, there is a Pokémon stranded in the river! Someone needs to go save it, but I don't know who! I could try myself, but I'm not the best swimmer in the world, and the currents look awfully strong..."

(Waiting for your Reaction, Nathan. Ventus is always ever vilgilant!)
