[Lord Windos]

Humm. This...resonance of the Astral Stone with her is picked up and noted very thrououghtly, and it instantly reminds Bernhard of something similar that occured in that vision/lucid dream/whatever it was. And knowing Miss Fortune's, Lady Luck's and Father Fate's way from personal experience, it's not there for no reason. Oh joy, looks like he's up to something, which sparks mixed feelings - less time and mindfulness to work on this in their alchemy lab, but also a not-soooo-bad opportunity to expand his horizon a little further. He subsconsiously surpressed his desire to journey in a meaningful manner for far too long, after all. Might be a good idea to get approval from his Mentor before, bar him worrying over their sudden disappearance or - worse - calling for an emergency meeting of the Council.

"Now, hold on for a second - I'd feel it'll be quiiiiiiiiite a while until you'll be able to be so visible again, even with the help of the Item I've requested for you to create and hold." - And with another whismiscal flick of his wrist the Invisible Spell on their partner-Pokemon is lifted, revealing it to be

(Not my art but Popkas' and taken from uranium's wiki, but I certainly will draw her sooner or later anyway.)

Myra, on the other hand, receives no pets or displayed affection - "Fret not, as I have something by far better for you. About time for you to become stronger than ever before, I've held on to your current for for long enough. You have held onto your current form for long enough."Drawn from an inner pocket of Bernhard's fine robe, an A-Grade Firestone is presented, and in an almost ceremonical manner is placed down in front of Myra.


Action: Take the opportunity to save magical energy by rendering partner-Mon visible, as well as eventually evolve Myra. Said A-Grade Firestone will also grant her +1 Special as a suprise. If partnermon want to witness for inspiration, let her, otherwise let her enjoy holding the Astral Stone for now.

Your long-burred but ever present desire to roam indeed strongly wells up again, but with age old experience you ignore it. Mastering your emotions was one of the very first things your Mentor taught you as a young Scimitar, and they were cherished lessons you'd never forget. Speaking of which, good idea to check in with Them - you've been independent for a long time now, but They still like to keep tabs on you, just in case you need help or something. Not in the doting sort of way, but more matter of fact 'You good? Very well then.' manner - your Mentor was never the best with expressing themselves outside of their imperialistic and somewhat egotistical/wise man persona, but you know they do care about you. Maybe you should let your Other 'friend' know too - no matter how much trouble , mischief, or befuddlement it may bring...

Your Partner, none other than the Mythical Artist Extraordinare Zephy, stretches her wings put and lets out a festive cheer as they dance around in mid-air!

"Yeeeeeeeaaaah-yay~! ALWAYS happy to be 'free from that stuffy 'Vis Spell! Why can't ya 'ake it a bit more 'oose for me, Partner? Don't you love me enough to try....?"

They're breaking out the Baby-Doll Eyes , trying to butter you up, but you are Immune to their tricks and ploys! Besides, you know they're just playing around.

Your auburn kitsune frowns in disappoint at first at the lack of attention - no fair! - but quickly perks up as you tease the possibility of something better. Wait, what is Master planning to give her....?

She lets out a gasp as you reveal the very Rare kind of Fire Stone, her tails going flat with awe and shock at the sight and feel of Pure Warmth and Power emitting from it. She looks down it, and then back up at you, paw raised up in the air in trembling hesistation and barely restrained excitement. This is...for me? Are you sure, Master?

You give a firm nod (and, perhaps, a small, fleeting smile) - yes, this is for you, little fox.

Myra's eyes glisten as little tears of joy bead out, and with a smile she touches the Grade-A Firestone.

*FWOOOSH!*

In an instant, your fox is enveloped in a aura and cloak of Fire and Energy, the sheer intensity of which threatens to scorch your hide black! You persist, though, weaving a minor spell to direct the heat away - a little Fire Power was not going to stop you from Witnessing Myra's Evolution, a long await event and one of the biggest moments in either of your lives.

Soon, the flames and energy dies down, revealing....

Myra the Ninetales, her brilliant golden coat radiating Power and the sheer love and dedication she has for you.

Congratulations, Myra has Evolved into a Ninetales! + 1 SPE from using the Grade-A Firestone! +1 Happiness and Loyalty for fulfilling her long awaited Wish!

*Bark!*
*Pull!*
"Omph!"

...And Myra uses her newly enhanced Psychic/telekinetic prowess to pull you off the edge and force you into a cuddle, nuzzling deeply into your side. Feeling her *Prrrrrrrggggg...* and the warm, toasty feeling she's giving off literally and spiritually....maybe you can allow this brench of conduct this once.

Zephy, for her part, is already in Action, a Sketch Book in hand as she hastily but expertly draws scene after scene of this beautiful moment.

"Yes yes yes! Now THIS is Art worthy of depicting! Myra, wrapp'em up in your Tails, 'Erni craddle her head gently! Zephy NEEDS to see it!"
