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

[Pokekitty2]

Spoiler

You only get a nod and a raised eyebrow for your first couple of comments, but your question immediately causes them to scowl and shoot a glance back at the receptionist, who looking both lost and even more nervous than before.

"....No, unfortunately. The reasons for that is simple: International Communications are down, as is International Trade. Despite my repeated inquiries at multiple Embassies I have not received a firm or clear answer as for why or how long until all is restored; at the point I'm suspecting either some for of espionage, counter-espionage pre-caution, or plain sabotage.

"Considering what has happened lately I favor more the later options, personally. *Aggrieved Sigh* I am trying to sort this out to save the trouble of sharing more bad news with my co-researcher, but at this point I imagine my efforts will be futile. Seddi will not be please with this, and frankly neither am I ."

That last point was clearly enunciated and directed towards the attendant and local guards and hovering officials, who all had the decency to look away, cowed by this woman's no nonsense attitude.

Well shit. There goes any plans to get in touch with your friends across the pond, or any means of coordinating at all for anyone else.

At the news, Sylvia goes still and the psychic buzz intensifies for a moment before she lets out a little huff.
>>Well. That is certainly bad news. You are correct - there isn’t much we can do about that.
Sylvia looks back at Randy, who shrugs as if to say, “your call.”
>>Our plans are put on ice for the time being, then. I suppose we should just be finding a room for the night.
Sylvia gives the professor a head bob that seems almost like a bow.
>>It was a pleasure meeting you, Professor Sada. If we could keep in touch, that would be greatly appreciated - though I’m little sure how much assistance we can provide, we would be certainly happy to.
Pokepod numbers swapped?
With that, Sylvia will turn to another attendant (if there is one - otherwise, we’ll steal this one from the prof for a bit) to try and get a room for at least the night.
