[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

Sada simply nods back to everything you answered or iterated upon the other Souls, once more going into thoughtful silence as her minds' gear start spinning up once more on how to best utilize this information and to Tackle all the problems, issues, and mysteries thereof. 

Well, until she dropped what amounted to an Near Suicide Mission on you, at which point everyone is well and truly distracted from previous matters.

The Professor again nods at your speculation - it mirror much of her own thoughts. Your request for a name gets promptly answers:

"Rodger 'D.S.' Everett. Most Common Aliases - Dodger, Rodger Dodger, Quicksilva Speedster, and Wilds Dandy. Specialize in Normal and 'Fast' Type Pokemon, and is known for blitzkrieg assault. Has worked as a Freelance Agent and Freelance Bounty Hunter for years, and is Consider Grade EX in both professions. Personal History is unknown. Personality is friend, easy going, light-hearted and deeply empathetic, but a known thrill seeker and willing to do anything to help others in need. Signature Pokemon are his Sutalorian Persain, Future Paradox Iron Giant, and a Delta Inflagetah - Data on these Pokemon is still pending. That is all I have gathered about this individual at the moment."

Ianai doesn't speak, starring daggers into the office table as she is thinking of something. One you ask that question, though, she slowly turns to face you, her eyes haunted yet holding a certain grim fatalness you've seen in your Ceruledge when they get truly, utterly done with something.

*Rolls*

...Your Gut tells you that she's been through a special sort of ordeal, and that this talk of Hunting a Malefic Monstrum is bringing it all back to the forefront of her mind. Beyond that, you are unsure.

"....As a Ashmuut and as a Protector-Spiritual Authority of This Land, it is my Duty to Deal with The Om'Kluof Rarii-Itna - The Ominous Star Titans - should they become Umbyssa'Malfe Mors - Fell Umbral Omens. I Will Perform My Duty Without Fail, With or Without Aid, No Matter What It Costs Me. So I Swear Thrice: On My Name, On My Power, On My Soul. Thrice I Swear it ; Thrice it is Sworn."

"...If you are to challenge a Prime Umbrassa'Malfe Mors. , a Pho'Loosu-Itna , make Peace with yourself, with others, your Destiny, and the World. Challenging one is not just one of Physical-Earth - it is a Test-Trail of the Soul-Sky. One that will break you, if you are not Ready for it. *Shakes Head* Win, Prevail, an you shall gain much ....and lose just as much, unless you are truly great as the Stars...."

Her Tattoo flair brightly throughout her little speech, and her grip on the Dusk Ball tightens to the point you'd thought it shattered by now. Yet, impossible, it remains strong.

...

As soon as Sada says the name of the helpful individual, Seddi chuckles.  "Ha!  I thought it might have been him!  That's definitely the fellow that picked me up off of that beach earlier.  I actually have him on speed dial already since he was impressed with how I handled Sand Crawler.  Can give him a call tomorrow and let him know what's up.  He's goin' to find this mighty entertainin' I reckon."

As for Ianai's grim and determined remarks, Seddi gives her a long, hard stare...

...and then he offers her a hand, much like he did with Oz earlier.

"Like I was tellin' Oz earlier, none of us have to do this alone.  There's a time to run, and there's a time to fight.  And right now, I think it's time to stand up and defend those in need.  I'll stand with you against this Wandering Hurricane.  La Primera probably won't be too pleased about me stickin' my neck out like this, but it's either that or the destruction of Bayahama City."
