[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

Spoiler

That means, the space I marked with an x is the waterfall, or is it?

Now that Kee/Kogeki/Lucas have to run off in different direction, I'm gonna keep track of that too via different colors.

Despite (or rather: because) it's so unnaturally quiet at this grotto they now came across, Kee actually enjoys the scenery a lot - There's a beautiful waterfall nearby, lush trees, this place seems isolated enough to be undisturbed if resting here... It's close to being perfect! Lucas can have as much as a bad feeling as he wants, Kogeki can be as serious as he desires, in contrary to all that nervous tension and stress the so-far journey to Spear Pillar that weights the colorful musician down he feels tranquil and at peace with himself and the world for now.

Octavia however, close by him, looks around a tad bit nervously, seemingly finding this silence somewhat eerie.

Even this strange singing doesn't seem to bother him too much. He even starts to enjoy it in some way, as off-key and weird as it is - but he has seen weirder shit so far. The sudden appearance of some ABSOL and Octavia immediately hissing at them in fear brings Kee back to senses and to the current place, he stares into their icy-blue eyes as a feeling of a bad omen increases and intensifies...


...until it reaches its peak when the dark prophets run off and a freakin' AVALANCHE crashes down. Not wasting a second, Octavia runs off after the Absol that went direction southeast, and Kee looses no moment following both - he may not be scared of dying, but he STILL wouldn't want to be buried by snow to never be found again!

3. Absol* 3
Difficulty: ???
Cap: 1
Note: This Absol went southeast.

They're going to follow 'their' Absol until they stop, making sure with everything they've got to NOT loose them - for several reasons.

Yes, that X would be around where the waterfall is.

Oh yeah, Octavia would have been out of her pokeball, wouldn't she?  Well, in that case, I can also say that after hearing that dismal, off-key song, she's starting to feel really strange...she starts to wobble on her feet a little, as if she might fall over.  She shakes her head and tries to shake off the weird feeling, and the adrenaline of having to run from that avalanche helps her stay focused too!

The tile that Kee and Octavia chase their Absol to...

*draws tiles out of hat*

   

...ends up being a sharp drop off of a cliff!  Kee and Octavia slide to a stop, barely managing to avoid careening off the edge in their haste, no Absol in sight!  They hurriedly look around, trying to find the Absol that ran in this direction...

Stealth: (4)(2)(5)(4)(3)(5)(1)(1)(1)(2)(5)(3)(4) 5 successes
Alert: (6)(5)(5)(3)(5)(2)(4)(5) 6 successes.  Wow!  How fortunate!

...only to spot the white feline snickering on a lower cliff, a black aura surrounding them!  It looks like they were about to do something, but after realizing they've been spotted, the aura disappears and they run to the tile to the left!

Looks like this Absol is gonna give Kee quite the workout.
