    Aegis Cave

    "I have it logged down and I sent it to Maple," Shield said. "I don't think there's anything else we can get here after all this sitting. Cal, help me carry Owen--let's head back." He nodded to Cynthian. "I think we're done for now. Nothing on Sword... but at least this isn't returning home...

    "I'll need time. I don't know the language, but hopefully it's the same letters when I... yes, I think it is. Hang on..." More time passed. Cal helped Owen get to a spot by the wall to recover. No matter what this uncovered, it didn't look like Owen was going to be able to do any more...

    Aegis Cave

    Owen nodded, breaking his focus to look the symbols over, and then continued his search. It lasted for several minutes, punctuated by the occasional giggle or echo of Darkwhite far off in the caverns. Owen occasionally thought he'd found something, only for it to result in them just being...

    "It's been far too long to find energy traces," Shield said. "Unless it was from an extraordinary blast, they would not have lasted longer than a day. And even then, you also fought Thyme and Pepper here. It would have been washed away there. Not to mention their swamp attack, which might have...

    "It looks like it was before our fight against Thyme... but I can't tell otherwise. Definitely around the time the Blacklight happened." Owen hummed. "IT must have been how they got abducted. They had put up a fight. But I can't find any evidence for who it might have been... Maybe it was just...

    Aegis Cave

    Without much more to converse about, they made it to the very end o the Dungeon, the pit where Regigigas usually stood dormant... but now, it was completely empty. Still, Owen surveyed the room with Wishkeeper hovering behind him, scanning every nook and cranny for any possible sign of-- "Found...

    "Unless they moved in after we rescued Thyme's team... no." They weren't too far from the end anyway, but it was still worth checking. "We're running out of places to check," Shield said. "They must be somewhere. Not to mention those Unown... You never know what you can create with Unown in...

    "I don't know," Shield said. "We should probably hold off on trying to find Sword first in places that don't involve that kind of risk. We already plan to look into the Tree of Life, after all..." "...I guess that's all we know," Owen said. "Maybe we can investigate a few of those places later...

    "He probably can't see anything, but maybe he can give us insight on what it means," Owen said. "He's replying now." Shield passed through the Ice chamber and continued onward with Owen, Cal, and Cynthian. "Okay. Pop says... that the only places that would be a risk to something like that...

    Aegis Cave

    Shield frowned, pensive. "Just because a place is strongly tied to Ley Lines doesn't mean it's going to let them go in all directions like that. Unless..." "Unless there's a place that's explicitly mentioned to be tied in that way," Owen said. "Isn't the Tree of Life that way?" "But we've been...

    And again, no substantial response. "I'm beginning to wonder if they can even understand us. They just operate at some basic level..." "Maybe they're illusions, and she can't really see us right now?" "No. Their eyes follow you. But..." Shield sighed. "I don't know. This is all so strange. And...

    Aegis Cave

    No reply at first, so Shield and the team continued on. The Lucario's ear twitched. "I hear giggling," he said. "It's Sword. But..." "I think I hear it, faintly," Owen said. "But your hearing's better than mine." "What, your Perceive can't hear anything?" "No. Only physical objects, not...

    Aegis Cave

    Owen winced, glancing at Wishkeeper. His head looked fuzzy, like he was having trouble maintaining his form. "I'll be honest," Owen said. "Something about Darkwhite is always really hard for me to read, and it's like these apparitions are only half-there. I can't make out anything specific...

    "We've tried before," Shield muttered, "but I guess it wouldn't hurt to try again. Sword! Can you hear me?" The apparition giggled, hands only barely covering her oversized mouth, as she sank into the wall. Her eyes and smile lingered longer than the rest of her body, even as it had completely...

    <><><> "Still nothing." A small team had been sent to various parts of Cibus to investigate whether it had any adverse effects--well, more adverse than usual--from the Sword sightings. Shield, of course, spearheaded these efforts, and had been going nearly nonstop on missions to investigate...

    Thyme, Pepper, and Darkrai disappeared, followed by Cresselia and Manaphy with the help of a few others on the team. With that taken care of, Cabot, Owen, and others at least slightly more experienced with this strange technology were able to help the others coordinate their warps out. They made...

    Yes. If this badge works similar to the world I came from, you are to try to channel energy into the badge similar to preparing an attack. From there, it should shine. Direct the light like it was an attack, and aim it at Thyme and Pepper. "New to exploring?" Thyme asked, smiling weakly. "And...

    Well, pardon me for getting to the point in what may be a crisis situation, Diyem growled back. "I thought you were a Voice of Life or something?" Owen asked, staring up with a frown. "Aren't you... supposed to be happy that we're alive?" ...Yes, I am glad that you were able to subdue Team...

    The thorn by Celeste pierced through the slug with ease; it shrieked, writhed for a while, and then suddenly dissolved into nothing, leaving the iron thorn behind. Meanwhile, Owen, after his first one was jarred, quickly ran toward Skara to help apprehend and seal the other one, looking back...

    Owen made several chittering noises before hopping ahead to shout at the others. "Save your items, I think we took him down!" The attacks all smashed Darkrai into the floor--the King of Nightmares was completely overwhelmed by the onslaught of attacks, unable to stand up to the decisive power...
