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

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

(Sorry for putting this off - I got a lot of plates that needed spinning, and since I figured you'd be busy with your Trip....)

You get to Main Street without much issue - though you could feel Iron Leaves being somewhat miserable in her Ball (omph) - and by the time you spot the Street Performance it was already gearing up to begin its 2nd Act : The Clash Between Light (Bayhama Settlers) and the Loam (Lepia) .

You see two actors with their Pokemon on the 'set' - one dressed in what you recognize as very traditional Sinnish clothing, accompanied by a Chatot and Infernape , and the other dressed similarly to Ianai, though in a more earthy, Grassy tones, a Arbok and what looked like an Leafy Electabuzz at his side. The Sinnish settler had bright blond hair and a angry scowl on her face, hands bunched up into fists, while the Lepian had a stony frown and  hia arms crossed

"Oh Giratina Damn You! Why must you remain so stubborn? Is what my people ask so utterly impossible, so reprehensible, that you are willing to wage war. Be reasonable!"

"Hmpt. Do not expect an Outsider to Understand what this Land, our Responsibility to it, Truly Means. We barely tolerate your settlement, obscene and foul to the Natural Order it is. Do not push your Fortune - you Will Not be Found in Favor."

The audience was 'ooohing' and awing at the drama taking place, as tension were coming to a boil and the First Bushland Wars was ready to Erupt! It was then a Pause fell over the play and the crowd grew excited - and then bursting onto the scene in a shower of feathers was the Narrator of the Play itself - Carmine Fantasio! Bright red curly hair, a face covered by a Tragedy/Comedy Mask , and wearing what appeared to be a cross between a Jester and Mr. Rime's outfit, they gave a bow to the audience as they declared:

"Oh what a plight! What a delight! The Leader of our people, the great and venerable Bayhama herself, locked in a stalmate with the tragic, noble man known only as Rag'Esmi  the Graveler ! What will be the Fate of this battle of Beliefs? This Meeting of the Wills? A revelation of what Truths they hold dear?"

They sonorous, upbeat voice pierces throughout the audience, before they suddenly point at someone: You! 

"You there! Yes, you, oh Stalward Ranger of Justice! Tell me, pray tell, let it be Known: What is your Truth of What Happened Here? Who do you Believe in Most? How, if it was your Will, do you think it should end ?"

Carmine, the audience, and the Actors themselves wait with baited breath for your answers....

"My truth of the matter, you say?  Well..."

Seddi straightens his hat dramatically.

"Conflict between those too stubborn to work together.  My belief?  Perseverance in the face of adversity, neither people nor land wantin' to yield on either side.  And my will?  An eventual accord between all, however shaky it may be.  And it's a darn shame that such accords often only come about after great strife."
