[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Nathan can't even look Heart straight in the eyes right now.  He's instead choosing to focus on the Mega Stone Sensor as it flashes purple, leading the way to the Mega Stones Shiva left behind.

That doesn't mean Nathan won't engage in conversation, though.

"...and?  These minarets are almost indestructible, Heart.  Reaching the throne room was never going to be easy.  The Sword is plenty powerful.  Just not as strong as whatever the Last King used to construct the walls of his palace, nor as strong as most actual Legendaries."

Nathan stops and sighs, still looking at the ground and the rainbow colored artifact in his hand instead of Heart.

"...why is me wielding this Sword such a big deal, Heart?  Seriously, why?  We all agreed on who would wield it before we even attempted to pull it out.  I said you'll be compensated for what you did.  I just...can't help you find Sid.  Not right now.  He isn't even in Creshire any more.  We're friends, right?  So why...?"

First Heart, now Shiva...why does trying to be friends with people have to be so hard sometimes?  He hasn't even done anything wrong...at least, in Gallade's opinion.

Well, at least Gallade will always be someone Nathan can rely on...

Just waiting on the start of the Lunapup encounter to be brought up before I get started on reacting to that.
