The party has reunited at the fork! Most of the danger is past. Mr. Finder is panting from exhaustion, and his Pokemon are all wounded and paralyzed (so is Dizzy).

"The northwest fork...leads on...to the Relic Stone...eventually. The east fork...leads to an open cavern...could rest there. Smells frosty. Stampede...mostly southeast."

Nathan arrives at around the same time Valder and Mr. Finder do.

The only comment Nathan makes upon reaching the fork (atop Swiftfire), is: "Well, guess...we better go rest...then...I'll take first watch...again.  I'm...only a little tired.  I can go...a little longer.  My pokemon aren't...too badly hurt so far...either.  Just some...chip damage...that's all..."

He does have one question for the group:  "So...who needs some Heal Pulses...the most?"

Ven really didn't know how to respond to Shiva to comfort her in that instance, so he kept silent while hugging her all the while until she got the panic out of her system. When Mr. Finder eventually staggered forward and indicated which path lead to where, the researcher almost immediately said: "We need to go down the east fork, at least for now. All of us are far too exhausted, and our Pokémon need time and attention to recuperate from this long, difficult day, so setting up camp in the open cavern is better than running ourselves ragged. Since my Pokémon are mostly unharmed and I have my brother Lucifer to act as both scout and keep me fleet, I volunteer to take first watch for the night after we settle in. Any objections to this plan?"

When Nathan pips up to take up the first watch, he just re-affirms his earlier statement with no nonsense look, and decline their offer for Heal Pulses, as Raphael/Lucifer would be completely healed after a night's rest.

Conspicuously, the researcher does not offer his supplies to Mr. Finder after seeing him/his Pokémon in that run down state at any point in time, but he wouldn't object to others expending resources on them. He just wants to save his for dire needs, and a good nights rest + time will cure the worst of the scenter's companions/Dizzy's woes.

Heart decided to use 1 pokeball in each two Aron. Heart would might want to sell them later or for trading. Might get a few pokedollars later who knows?

Pokeball: (6)(6) Aron was caught!
Pokeball: (2)(4) vs (4); (3)(1) vs (4) - the Pokeball breaks.

Heart did not dare to try again capture another Aron. Since he have only 4 normal pokeballs remaine, he decided to leave just that. "One Aron is more than enough for now. Rose, Gustav. Lets go!" Heart decided to return Gustav to the pokeball since it would not be wise let his pokemon more exausted he is already is. After all, Gustav already did a amazing job finishing off many pokemon in their way. He is a hero and one of Heart strongerst pokemon. Heart finally arrive with the others and see their are fine. "Gladly to know you make your path with no great problems. Anyone needs a healing process? Gustav still have some energy to heal."
