EVENT - October Plot Stuff Part One

[united-mods.livejournal.com]

It's the early morning, after the eggs have hatched. How fun - I hope you all love your new Pokemon friends.

But that is not what this post is about. Oh, no. It's going to prove something to all of you.

Namely, the fact that NPCs can use this network as well. They can use it for all sorts of purposes - like sending out a text to all the newbies. Like this one here - sent from the formal parts of the Nacrene Gym! Whatever could it be? Well, read on...

Dear trainers;

This letter is to invite all of you to an archaeological dig in the Relic Castle, beginning in four days.

Us Gym Leaders have been watching you since you were attacked by those Pokemon around a month ago. Before then, those Pokemon had not stirred from their places in the various ruins of Unova. You're all something special - and that may not extend to just summoning Pokemon who have not been seen in many years.

The dig is to investigate reports of a strange stone, buried at the bottom of the Relic Castle. Many reports have poured in from trainers - the main parts of the ruins have been closed to the public for a while, due to them. We've looked before, but now it seems that things are changing in this region.

And that is why we are inviting you to come along. Transport will be provided, as well as protection from the elements. If any issues come up during the dig, us at the Nacrene Gym will take all responsibility for it - there is no need for panic.

We will be starting the trip to the ruins in two days - and the trip shall be sped up by our transportation. If you wish to come, reply by then.

Please note that during this time, the Nacrene Museum and Gym will be closed, as nobody will be there. We apologize for the inconvinience, but this may be one of the biggest finds of the century.

Yours sincerely;
Nacrene Gym

Well. You've got two days to talk it over with others - it seems the channel is still open, but there won't be replies from the gym. But you can still use it as a public talking ground thing with friends! |D

Joy...?

((OOC: This is part one of the event - just getting people going! In two days, I'll be putting up another post, for the travel [which is also just a shortthing] - but backtagging is encouraged for all of these things. And stuff. [We will need backtagging for the exploring won't we :p]

I'll also be putting up my plans for the whole dig in the OOC comm within the next few days.))

It is important - that stone. Maybe it is there... [Emmet is musing to himself, don't mind him. He's got a bad feeling about this place... and there's only one thing you can do when you get a bad feeling. Investigate.]

...Do you know of the legends of Unova?

[video] gosh I am bad at using the correct username

The legends? [Miror shakes his head, amused.] Fuhoho! Never paid much attention to Unovan legends, I must say. Why, are they relevant, darling? Something about this stone perhaps?

In my Unova... the legends went to sleep, and became stones. In the Relic Castle... Zekrom slept, waiting for a new hero. [Well, some of Zekroms powers slept there, waiting. Details, details.]
We need Zekrom. Yup. [Now, Emmet doesn't normally sound serious. He doesn't often act serious.

So you know this is serious when he both sounds and looks serious. Even with a slight smile, he's serious.]

...I see. [Miror seems subdued in the presence of serious!Emmet, and he misses a couple beats before returning to his normal tempo.] ...Well that does sound important, then, doesn't it! So you agree? We'll work on finding it first.

[An uncertain pause.] You seem pretty adamant about this, darling. Why do we need Zekrom exactly? I mean, other than the obvious leverage, the advantages of having a legendary Pokemon on your side, etc., etc. I get that part! Do you know something I don't?

[Silence. Emmet then thinks a little - did he just... yes. He let himself get angry. He let some of his own fears slip into his voice.

That was bad. Sorry, but serious!Emmet is gone again.] I want to see it. Yes, that is it! It can be our friend! Our good friend - and I have a lot of electric types. I think I would be a good trainer for it. That is all.
