[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

As true as the unquestionable danger a battle against vicious foes, the shared pain when having seen a party member being attacked by them but also the encouraging sense of having made it and suceeded over the enemy were, as true was the reward of the battle - gemstones! And by all means, way more than the eye could see! Once more Shiva staggered and took a blind step back while not averting her gaze from the all the way-too-real-loot, while Azumarill has already brought her hands to her mouth and gasped herself in awe. These were way more beuatiful than these white quartz crystals from earlier, oh boy!

Boldly picking one from the heap, the blue fae rabbit turned around and offered it to her Master with a smile and an expression of 'LOOK AT THAT! How....beautiful!' - in a slow manner as if being afraid that all of this was just a halluzination of an Encounter, caused by the claustrophobic tunnels or the messed up biorythm, Shiva accepted one of these gemstones from her Pokemon. It indeed felt very real in her hand, and gave her another boost of rightness. A feeling of...truely and unmistakably having deserved this loot!

On the screen and via a controller, it all was safe and well, but the real experience was a much different thing, as she now firsthandedly went through. It all happened for real, and for looong Shiva will remember this run-in with the ghost brigade of brave Captain Bridge.


She was just about to turn around and thank them all - but they have already vanished. That was the way of things, she gave a very last salute to them which they weren't able to see anymore, holding back a toneless sob in this farewell.

Her part worth 3000$ is securely packed away in the wodden crate of her stuff, safely contained now to be brought to the surface.
