[BACKDATED TO TWO DAYS AGO - sorry for the delay!

It's time for an NPC broadcast! It's pre-recorded... made for TV, perhaps? Anyhow, the screen opens up to the Old Man of the Entralink, the Entree behind him. It seems to have grown a little. Joy? He seems to be joyful, as well. What dangers does this bode for us outsiders?!
There's also a news reporter speaking with him - a pretty odd-looking one. An interview, it seems. But then, why is it being broadcasted to the outsiders...? Well, listen in! The reporter's text is in blue, while the Old Man text is good old black.]

...Once again, we're here with the owner of the Entralink. A while back, the Entralink began to have issues, correct?
Hm, indeed. That's when all these Pokemon appeared...
And then these 'outsiders' starting coming on in when you tried to fix it, a month after that.
Well, yes... but we've made a breakthough.
...Really? So those icky outsiders can leave?
They're not icky, and not yet. The first wave of repairs have been made... the teleportation systems are now running as they should, though I predict outsiders might still arrive. The Entralink is a confusing system.
But...?
But, there's not enough power. I've tried to find out how to gather more, but...
Urgh. So, you're saying they're still stuck? Bummer.
That's not what I'm saying, young lady! There might still be a way!
Fiiine. Let's listen in, folks.
Though my years of researching the power of the Entralink, one thing stood out. When a trainer with badges approached it... it seemed to react strongly. I haven't looked into it much - I was never a trainer, myself - but that might be the way back... gathering the badges. Or, things made of the same material...
So, we've just gotta get those outsiders moving to the League, then?
I fear it might not be that easy. Your attitude... it is shared by the current head of the Pokemon League, is it not?
Well, duh! He's a good guy. Nice and smary.
Then... they will not hand out badges that easily.
...Double urgh. So, they've gotta fight on though?
I think they will.

Triple urgh! Looks like I'll be waiting for my own Pokemon journey.

...So! There you have it! This has been Dahlia of Nimbasa News - back to you--


[And that's where the video cuts off. Looks like it was an important broadcast for all of us. There is a comments section here too - so you can all reply to each other, squee over a method home being found, or ponder over how... hateful that reporter was. Whatever you want.]

WELCOME TO THE RELIC CASTLE

I shall be your guide and snarky narrator - replying to most comments with a bit of humour - acting as your Game Master for this adventure though this castle. The goal? To explore and find the Dark Stone. There are seven stories, and you will need to get to the bottom. Please note that if we don't wrap this up by Halloween, the Pokemonfication event will still be happening.

How this is gonna work? There's gonna be comments down there. When somebody solves the floor, then the next floor will go up. Simple? I sure hope so!

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.))
