While never as harsh as the peak of the season, it was not uncommon for winter to linger around or arrive early in Sinnoh. Just last year in late August, snow falling on Valily City complicated the Sinnoh League conference. But spring came early this year, and so Route 211 only had a few dirty...

"You're pathetic," the Demon slips in a brutally simple insult before getting silenced, finally having heard enough. "All you care about is your wants. Is this haven for them, or you? A selfish leader is useless. If you want quiet, it'd be quickest if you disappeared." --- It doesn't affect...

Heeding Priestess Satomi’s advice, Haruto changed into a maroon jacket over a white shirt with dark gray sweatpants. It would not win him any fashion awards, but he did not own any articles of the punk clothing that was currently trending among his age group. Hopefully, their guests would not...

Nori frowns at first. How to go about this? Luckily, the Pokemon standing up to their mad god provides the answer. Especially that they were trying to avoid the subject. He smiles and gestures to them. "See? They enjoyed it!" he says. "You said that you wanted to make a pleasant haven for...

The Demon lets out a snicker as she sees the garden. "There were none of these before. Whoever caused this fears us." It was only a matter of time before it was all blown away. --- Nori tenses up at the sight of the sorry state of the garden. "It wasn't like this when we left," he notes. He...

Nori's eyes light right up at the Graveler's words. "Really? That's really promising!" He makes a small double fist pump. He didn't see a reason why they'd lie about that to the Graveler! He has to wonder though, why was that Salazzle so upset about revealing that? Did her xenophobia run that...

"So you've never actually seen it yourself?" And this was one of the older Pokemon in the village. Well, how old was this Pokemon, anyway? Not a relevant question, he supposes. Mention of the ocean makes the boy visibly freeze up. He made the right decision not going that way. Still, that was a...

A number of the Kannagi family and their faithful lived on the grounds of the shrine. Once upon a time, when the family was not as splintered due to disagreements, it was the exclusive residence of the Master of the Shrine, their immediate family, and their most trusted confidants. The remainder...

As the Demon Nidorina watches and listens to the performance, something chews at her mind. Was it her instinct or her senses talking? It was difficult to put into words, but something felt off. It keeps her from enjoying it. --- Nori enjoys it. He even taps his toes a little, momentarily...

Haruto hurried over to the opposite side of the shrine. As he caught up to Lisa and Melony, it became apparent that a commotion was taking place. A group of people, including Sanshirou and Priestess Satomi, had gathered near some benches. The cause was clear – it was a safe assumption that this...

"Of course," Nori says with a soft smile. "If you'll have us." --- "Like I said. Stand tall, and I'll stand with you," the Demon affirms. And he is standing tall.

The Kannagi Shrine was situated in the center of the town it once gave its name to. One entered through the torii on the south side, though the stone steps led down into a small valley. The shrine itself was in the center of the grounds, with no oratory in front of it owing to how old it was...

Nori quickly looks up with a soft gasp, eyes half closed and hair moving just a little from the motion. Was it that obvious? He closes his eyes and smiles resignedly. "Thanks, but don't worry about me," Nori answers, evidently very much not okay from how his voice breaks. He elaborates a...

After performing a ceremony to honor Dialga in spring of 1985, thirteen-year-old Haruto of the Kannagi Clan has a chance meeting with a student visiting from Galar. It sets in motion a series of events that will change his life forever. You can expect to see typical Pokemon violence, dangerous...

Oof, rolled snake eyes. Well, might make it Slib's replacement whenever I write enough there to max out because I can make another RPG reference that way. Last two weeks were almost all edits (which included new stuff). I actually probably underestimated some of these numbers slightly. The...

Nori lowers his head. So it was that. Stage fright isn't really something he can relate to. Well, maybe... "You are!" he blurts, before squinting his eyes shut. "We know you're one of the best flutists here. This music is... really great. I don't think anyone can do a better job than you...

The Demon reveals the flute in a single motion, parting the dirt for it to just enough become visible. She stares blankly at it, then to the child. Then back and forth. She has one deadpan word: "What." --- "Okay then," Nori quips, rubbing his hair. "That was uh, way less climactic than I...

Nori snap turns away. "O-oh. I thought it was you who was controlling that." That was a silly and sort of embarrassing assumption to make. "So then who--" He freezes. He goes over the facts again to make sure that it wasn't just an impulsive thought. The Charcadet had the Ice Flute and now he...

Nori quietly follows along into the garden. Another one. Maybe gardens were like, Meloetta's thing. At least in this world. Still, there's little time to think about the sights, because the one they've met is right here. He gasps softly. There could be any number of reasons the Charcadet could...

Nori frowns deeply and lowers his head. "They said they left after failing to stop a big fight. I wish they could've been more specific," he laments. Maybe, hopefully, they just walked away to take a breather. It was possible that Meloetta themself wasn't corrupted. But then, why sit back and...
