[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

"Oh, cool. Absolite is a fairly rare mega stone. So, hmmm... Key Stones. The League can give them in recognition of outstanding service to Creshire, and we both know your team has accomplished some amazing things. Unfortunately, they are mostly secret for one reason or another. Your file currently says you helped Zamboni with a Vespiqueen as a new trainer, some research with Laurelin, and placed well in a couple tournaments, and of course you have a very nice collection of badges. It won't take much to trigger a review. If you can think of anything else I could add, I'd be happy to do that. Or... to be honest, you seem to attract trouble, so maybe you'll just stumble upon someone who needs saving on your own."

"...well, something might be coming up, I think.  So, that bright light in the sky?  There was...another thing we encountered while time traveling.  Some 10,000 years ago, when the Millenium Comet first passed our planet and Jirachi blessed the pokemon of our world with additional types, there was another visitor...a Deoxys.  It landed in the general vicinity of Teazel Valley along with the comet, which likely owes to why the Safari Zone is so diverse today.  Deoxys...wasn't exactly the type of visitor from space that came peacefully, though...it trapped the majority of the pokemon in the valley for I don't know what purpose.  We got away, but...I don't actually know what happened with Deoxys after that..."

"...what I do know is that the last known sighting of the Millenium Comet was about 1000 years ago, give or take a few years.  That light in the sky?  I have reason to think it's the Millenium Comet.  And our prophetic pokemon...they're saying Deoxys is coming back.  And that we need to do something about it.  One line in particular from Heart's Xatu is rather striking: Comet's bane within the tombs.  I know that the Scimitars and my dad were looking for some rather powerful items in the Skull Ruins, among which are a Sword, a Helm, a Hauberk, and a Shield.  I keep finding and hearing references to the Sword in particular, and those four items are the primary reason the Water Scimitars want to turn the Ruins inside out.  Their goal is to use them to save the region from some incoming threat according to what Juni told us.  The problem: only those who are 'more than human' can wield those four artifacts according to Juni, so they're trying to artificially make themselves that way with their gauntlets.  Ironically, I'd actually say their practices might make them a little less than human...but back on topic...I know for a fact that Shiva, Heart, and I can wield those artifacts.  When we met Celebi, she gave us a gift.  A gift that made us just a little more than human, though not to the point that we aren't still human.  It's why the Scims wanted to find Atheneum in the first place.  So, in short...we need a short notice permit to explore the Skull Ruins at the soonest opportunity if at all possible.  I obviously can't say that it's to possibly stop a Legendary pokemon from causing chaos and destruction, though, or nobody on the other end of the phone is going to believe me..."
