EXPEDITION: DEPARTURE

[ino]

[ To Terre Haute we go! Hope you've packed your things, travelers, because it's going to be a long trek there. Feel free to mingle about in the lobby with everyone else waiting to get going, or grab a bite to eat! After all, it might be awhile before you see fresh food again … ]

Hey, Allen. [Gale will just lean on the wall next to him and snag a few of those snacks]

Sorry I missed the last one of these... remind me what you guys found out there, again? I feel like I'm behind.

[save_the_souls]

Hello Gale!

[He'll smile at him]

Well last time we found a beach with a cave- the one that had the virus in it. Oh, and when we revisited we found a bird with an atlas of the continent!

[fanstheflame]

Oh, I was there for the first visit. [he doesn't seem bothered in the least, though - he knows a lot of people went]

... The atlas, though, that's great. Can I see?

[save_the_souls]

Mm, so you saw it before I did! Don't worry, you aren't behind.

Of course! [He'll dig through is bag before he produces a copy of this!] Here you are.

[fanstheflame]

I'd say it was beautiful if it wasn't for those horrible bird-things. [he makes a face, which fades into curiosity as he takes the atlas from Allen and peruses]

The comet, or whatever it was ... that fell way out this way, right...? [he points] Have you ever been out this way? I've only ever gone west.

[save_the_souls]

Well it can still be beautiful! It's not the beach's fault for the birds.

[He nods] I've been as far as Paradisa Town in that direction. [pointing to that on the map!] Beyond that, I don't know what lies out there.

[fanstheflame]

Another thing named after Paradisa...! [he rolls his eyes] What's out there? Does anyone still live in it?

[save_the_souls]

[he shrugs. Earth has so many duplicate names and what with his traveling he barely notices]

Not anymore, I believe. It's a small village that used to house talking animals- but they had left last time I went there.

[fanstheflame]

Sort of like the Pokemon, then...? [he contemplates the map, then pulls out his journal, scribbling in a rough copy for his own reference]

[save_the_souls]

Sort of...but they were capable of human speech and wore clothing.

[And were serious assholes, eff those guys]

[fanstheflame]

Okay, that ... actually sounds even stranger than the Pokemon, honestly. [you have officially weirded him out, Allen. not that it's necessarily that hard sometimes]

[save_the_souls]

Yes, it was very strange.

Thankfully, it seems they're no longer there.

[fanstheflame]

So it's all abandoned? ... Sounds like a good place to set up camp for a night. Is it?

[save_the_souls]

[He nods] It is. There's even food out there, if people need to restock.

[Even if I hate that place...]
