"Ven will be fine, he always returned eventually, one way or the other. *shrugs* And he's not that mad to go Furret-hunting when it's illegal."

Nathan scratches his head, puzzled...sighs...

"...well, I just hope he doesn't go too far, then...careful if you encounter any Furret.  They're playful and mischievous, and it can be difficult to tell if they mean well or are just messing with you for the fun of it and because they know they can get away with it without consequence.  One nearly dropped a piece of a gravestone on my head earlier..."

*shudder*

"...anyways, I'm going to look around here a little, see what I can find...there's probably all sorts of stuff hiding just out of plain sight in these caves...either dropped by someone who passed through previously or sitting undisturbed for who knows how long...come on, Starmie!  Between your Illuminate and my flashlight, I'm sure we'll find something!"

There's that genuine excitement again! And yeah, it definitely feels slightly less forced...just slightly.

Item hunt for Nathan!  Useful or Hold?  I don't know!  Let's see what Valder picks first...though Nathan's definitely grabbing that Hold Item if Valder doesn't.
