@FauxFox @canisaries @Flyg0n @Dragonfree @Seren @Sinderella Oh, you'd speak of cowardice? Fezandipiti sneered at Kohath. When you're too fearful to face down these pathetic excuses for pokémon? Perhaps I should make your options more clear: fight these interlopers, or fight me instead. He...

@FauxFox @Seren @canisaries @Flyg0n @Sinderella The rockruff yelped and pressed themselves to the ground as Scorch whipped past overhead. They milled around, yapping uncertainly, when they received no further commands. Their trainer appeared to be in deep conversation with another; apparently...

@Flyg0n @Sinderella @FauxFox @Seren The battle began explosively, with the combined Energy Ball and Psyshock detonating into the last remnants of Fezandipiti's Moonblast. The legend staggered back with a squawk, flailing his wings to maintain his balance. No sooner had he regained his...

@FauxFox @Sinderella @Seren @Flyg0n @canisaries Fezandipiti's head jerked back and forth, gaze roaming from Theo to Vienna to Kari. Yes, very capable, all of you. Clearly, he said. And also dreadfully sympathetic to a certain murderer. He shot a particularly pointed look at Theo. If you're...

@FauxFox @Flyg0n @Seren @Sinderella @canisaries Theo, Marcel, Kari, and the rest of their group pounded along the mountain path, hoping to catch up to Jean and Kieran. The dirt track would take them up and around, across a small stream and into a wide grotto filled with boulders and tumbled...

I am not lost, the figure said in its strange, almost distant voice. Are you? It's dangerous to be out on the mountain at night. "A-are you the ogre?" Kieran piped up from beside Jean. It was hard to see him in the dark, but he seemed to be shaking with something, whether fear or excitement or...

@ShiniGojira @System Error Okidogi was obviously frustrated when Evie kept evading his blows, striking out with growled curses, his attacks growing ever more sloppy and unfocused. But while Evie was dodging, she wasn't attacking, and in time Okidogi seemed to take some momentum from this. You...

@FauxFox Theo's words didn't deter the sinistcha's attack, but perhaps they unnerved it enough that its shadow ball went wide. Whatever the reason, the attack did miss Theo, and his illusion remained intact. The sinistcha rattled with irritation, perhaps mingled with fear, and began charging...

@IFBench @ShiniGojira @System Error Unsurprisingly, Okidogi did at first lock on to the slumbering bronzong, gathering darkness around his claws and no doubt preparing to lay into the slumbering pokémon while it was defenseless. When Evie made herself flagrantly vulnerable, though, the legend...

@canisaries Ah, excellent, excellent, Fezandipiti said, bowing his head to Kohath. Your help is much appreciated. Addressing the crowd again, he said, Now, are there any others with the same noble spirit as this fine fellow? You alone can defend your village from the return of the ogre's...

@FauxFox Ogrepon listened closely to Theo's explanation about his life, head tilted just to one side. When he finished, she was silent a moment, then shook her head slowly. How strange. I've never heard of such things. Humans becoming pokémon, other worlds... What is a "mystery dungeon?" She...

[[ Nice timing, FauxFox! Will catch you in the next update. ]] @ShiniGojira @System Error @IFBench Things didn't start off well for Okidogi. He probably hadn't been expecting quite so much resistance, and the burst of static from the redirected Thunder Wave left him momentarily frozen, the...

@FauxFox I'm glad that you've been having fun, Ogerpon said warmly, if also quietly. Where is it that you come from? I've heard of zorua who walk among humans, but I've never met one myself. How did you come to be at the festival? The voices of the people hunting around outside the crevice...

[[ Congratulations to FauxFox on completing his hidden objective! ]] @IFBench @ShiniGojira @System Error Carmine jerked away from Satomi's reaching hand, reflexively grabbing her mask to keep it in place. "Who the hell are you?" she demanded over Morpeko's angry chatters. Any such question...

@canisaries @Flyg0n @Seren @Sinderella @UnknownUser55 The ogre hunt continued, and Fezandipiti continued to hang around the stage, accepting gifts of food and coin from awestruck festivalgoers--and answering skeptical questions from Marcel and Vienna. A minor commotion had begun down in the...

@Sinderella Hmm, prior incidents, Fezandipiti said thoughtfully. Well, nothing like murder, not that I know of. More mayhem, general rabble-rousing, that sort of thing. You must understand, the villagers were all terrified of the ogre. It's noble to want to suggest a more gentle solution to...

@FauxFox Ogerpon hesitated a moment, but then reached out to take Theo's hand and let him lead the way through the crowd. It was tough, staying together when the crowd was in such an uproar, but with a bit of judicious shoving, they were able to make good progress. Once or twice someone came...

[[ Congratulations to Dragonfree for being the first to fulfill her hidden objective! ]] @Dragonfree It wasn't hard to catch up to the boy in the Ogerpon mask; he was presently held up by what looked to be a group of kids around his age, who seemed to find the situation more entertaining than...

@FauxFox @System Error Something Theo said seemed to have struck a chord with the poncho-wearing child, because they patted Theo's hand, as if to reassure him. Their poncho felt smooth and almost waxy, like the surface of a leaf. I will do my best not to worry. But I fear these Loyal Three are...

@canisaries @Flyg0n @Seren @Sinderella @UnknownUser55 The performance was wrapping up, the actors returning to the stage to enthusiastic applause. "But remember," the narrator intoned. "That horrible ogre lives with us yet. Far, far above the village, only waiting for the day when it will...
