Nathan hears those bells ringing too.  Obviously, he finds it rather...odd to be hearing bells this deep underground.  It's only a few minutes later that he happens upon Shiva and her Gothitelle...ringing a bell...

"...uh...Shiva, what are you doing?"

Due to the concentration she was holding up in order to not miss any response from the source of the ringing sounds, Shiva barely visibly flinches as Nathan came closer and asked her what he was doing - Lilith probably already saw him coming right before her mental eye and didn't react, but Mighyena turned to the 'intruder' and began to growl deeply at him while - just in case - flattening his body while spreading his intimidating wings.

Shiva noticed this and turned towards this 'intruder', before she quitens her hyena with a hand gesture. "Me? Oh, well..... 'Please don't give me such a weird look! >_<', she added only in her thoughts, "You probably hear these chime sounds, d'you? These....faintly sound like Chimecho! Only much louder. Usually, they're only giving off a ringing sound when hoping, as well as frequencies that humans can hear but that might still deafen 'em."

A shared look with at first Dizzy, then Lilith, then Yena was providing her enough courage to go and investigate WHY they were louder than any hatched Chimecho she knows - were the cave walls possibly echoing their sounds? Have they developed extraordinary skill of soundmaking in this kind of environment? Whatever it was....now Shiva's curiosity awoke. And once she got curious about something, she rarely lets go. ".....Yena, please return into your Ball for now. Your intimidating might scare them and lead 'em to swarm us out of fear - I'll let you out as soon as I need your help again." Mightyena is withdrawn. In return, with the tossing of a different Ball, Furret appeared on the scene! The jar with the fern is securely packed away into backpack as well, as it breaking due to the high frequency sounds is something that Shiva doesn't want to risk. Gothitelle stays out, and gets the plea "Please continue ringing your Soothe Bell. Try to create a melody which they might respond to as well, keep their attention."

Next, Shiva made a half-turn into the direction the chiming comes, and looks back to throw a glance over to Nathan. "I'm going to take a look at these myself. Want to come too?"
