[Lord Windos]

Ventus gets a video call back. Mallorn is eating noodles.

"Dr. Zachariah. Good to hear from you, boss! What all did you have to tell me? A weird Beautifly? I might be able to pay something for that, if it's weird enough."

"Glad to see you still have a healthy appetite, Dr. Mallorn! To cut to the chase, this Beautifly has a strange variant of the ability Shed Skin which, upon being triggered, causes it to devolve to its previous evolutions! Given your interest in evolutionary studies, I thought having such a specimen to research in depth would greatly appeal to you. As for the stipend, I am aware that you typically don't indulge in charity, but if I may make an argument on the Shelter's behalf, perhaps I can persuade you to loosen those purse strings of yours?"
