[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Dragonstrike]

Karen and Marcus both stand between Pyra and and the two wild pokemon now, though for differing reasons.  Pyra would have to go through both of them (and presumably Kee) to even have a chance of stopping the Forretress from consuming the Oran Berry.

Karen can't believe what she's hearing and feeling right now.

"...but...but Conkeldurr was just doing what he thought was right, Pyra!  We don't have to fight him any more!"

Marcus just looks...deeply serious after the recent revelations.

"Pyra, I think we have bigger problems than Conkeldurr right now.  If Machamp is actually deceiving everyone, then everyone that's done business with him recently has probably been duped.  And what Conkeldurr said about his behavior...I'm worried that means something's happened to him.  I'll tell you more later, though.  Right now, please stand down.  If you attack him and his crew, I don't think it will end well for any of us."

Karen's silent for a long while as she nervously waits for Pyra's response...

Meanwhile, Conkeldurr is unimpressed by Kogeki's attempt to snap him out of...whatever Kogeki is trying to snap him out of, and he just glares back at the Riolu.  "...just because you...have beaten me, that...does not...mean you have earned...my respect, small arms.  Back.  Off."

Conkeldurr is much kinder with Kee and starts trying to ignore Kogeki.  Forretress begins trying to shoo Kogeki off and create a little space between him and Conkeldurr.  Forretress is not trying to attack Kogeki right now, however, just nudge him out of Conkeldurr's way (how gently/forcefully depends on how willing Kogeki is to comply with that command from Conk).

"...the Hidden Mine...is a little deeper in...there's a stairway up ahead...around the bend.  That will take you there...I do not wish to ask you to put yourselves in danger...but if you can save them...please..."

Marcus turns his attention back to Conkeldurr.  "And that's where Machamp is, right?"

"Yes.  Machamp and all the...goons he brought with him."

"Good.  This isn't how I imagined my little request would go, but meeting Machamp and figuring out what's going on was my main goal anyways.  Seems wise to prepare for a possible confrontation as well now, though."
