2022-06-20 16:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostOnce Terrance was out of our hands, I felt as if a weight was lifted from my shoulders, a weight I hadn’t noticed before. Looking at the other three, there were subtle signs of relaxation, of fad...
2022-06-19 18:00:52 +0000 UTC View PostIt took until the next morning for Doris to return to us. We had been given a nice, little cottage in the middle of town, where everyone could keep an eye on us, and spent the night in comfort. I u...
2022-06-17 16:01:07 +0000 UTC View PostClaire and Lucas leaned forward as if Terrance was about to reveal that hidden location to them. Given that we shouldn’t head into the underground thus far, I wasn’t sure what that information ...
2022-06-16 21:06:16 +0000 UTC View PostWatching Adra and Tani, alongside Rai, was incredibly adorable. There was something naive about Tani, making me think she was either young or inexperienced. And yet, despite that naivety, she someh...
2022-06-15 16:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostAfter the Larvitar fled, silence settled over the area. Trying to console him, I gave Charm’s shoulder a gentle pat but the gesture was as useless as it was simple. There was no quick and easy fi...
2022-06-14 15:04:53 +0000 UTC View Post“Daniel said you offered your help,” Doris asked, after taking over the task of guiding us from Daniel. “What do you have in mind when you offer that? Are we talking about moral support, the ...
2022-06-13 16:01:04 +0000 UTC View PostAfter checking the Geodude, we took a closer look at the crevices it had come out of. From up close, they looked just as confusing and difficult as they looked from afar, with multiple openings tha...

“Love, come down,” she ...
2022-06-10 16:01:04 +0000 UTC View PostLooking down the slope, my heart fell. We had been travelling hard all day and managed to cross most of the distance to the second entrance but now, daylight was abandoning us. We had to decide whe...
2022-06-09 17:07:06 +0000 UTC View PostWith the dawn of a new day, the four humans with us looked a lot less subdued and uncomfortable than during the night. Might have been due to the light showing them that the five of us weren’t ju...
2022-06-08 16:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostClimbing up the slope of the valley took us four hours altogether. By the end of it, we were all tired, sweaty and utterly annoyed that we hadn’t decided on the easier, but longer, path, but afte...
2022-06-07 18:02:56 +0000 UTC View PostIt was quite fascinating to see Olivia struggle with her own convictions. From what I knew about her, she was completely devoted to Eleutheria but with that devotion came a certain connection to th...

2022-06-05 18:10:01 +0000 UTC View Post“We could, but why should we explain our actions to you?” I sulked, leaning back into Sigmir’s embrace. “We saved you and now you are questioning the methods we employed and how we acted in...
2022-06-03 16:01:04 +0000 UTC View PostTravelling as a group of four was weirdly different, yet similar to travelling as a pair. Given that we, after the first morning of wandering around Eterna Lake, had to travel up steep and difficul...
2022-06-02 20:39:29 +0000 UTC View PostPresentation was important, especially when it came to first impressions. As such, I had taken quite a bit of care to prepare the small clearing for the people that had been hunted through the fore...
2022-06-01 16:00:25 +0000 UTC View Post“Have a seat,” Sylva invited us after entering a comfortable office, filled with greenery. “Let’s do the evaluations in reverse order, starting with you,” she nodded towards Lucas.

2022-05-30 19:48:56 +0000 UTC View PostAfter the first arrow, the drama beneath me started to ramp up quickly. Forced into cover by the sudden arrows, the rest of their pursuers managed to catch up before the fleeing group had time to r...

2022-05-28 18:33:06 +0000 UTC View PostSometimes, less was more. Or rather, more was less.
Since the others had decided to leave the roads and travel through the more difficult terrain of the forest, taking a longer path, our trav...
2022-05-27 16:01:05 +0000 UTC View PostAs always, there was no external signal given. Claire and Sylva exchanged a brief nod and the battle was on.
“Twiggy, settle in,” Claire ordered and Twiggy rooted himself in the loose soi...
2022-05-26 18:59:46 +0000 UTC View PostAfter resting in my Hallow for the entire afternoon, I was reasonably calm and fully rested when we started to make camp in the evening. The others had found a small hill some distance from the riv...

2022-05-24 15:17:42 +0000 UTC View PostLeaving Nobost was a breath of fresh air, both figuratively and literally. There were no more complications in line, just a couple of annoying guards who wanted to take an intimate look at us as we...
2022-05-23 16:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostIf I learned one thing during the five days we had to wait to get our task assigned by Gymleader Sylva, it was that I never, ever, wanted to retire to Eterna City. We did our best to explore the ci...
2022-05-22 15:20:23 +0000 UTC View PostIn some ways, I had to be grateful for the chaos in the Eterna City Pokécentre. Helping Leana solve that chaos gave us a lot of exposure to the internal workings of a Pokécentre and some of the o...
