[ 1 ruined town ]

[spotted]

[Tonight's video finds a masked, red-headed girl in the freezing cold. She's on what looks like a ferry (and it is; she decided to pay up to go to this Pallet Town or whatever, as it was offered!) and it's snowing.

She isn't happy. The only thing that fits this weather is an incredibly heavy jacket she got as part of her welcome package. It pretty much looks like an old woman's, but it's warmer than what she's wearing underneath.

What words of wisdom will a Prosecutor of the Church of Areulla share with us tonight?]

That old man refused to answer my questions unless they were about a beast I found floating around me, so I am going to politely request your assistance. It would a favor to the Church if you would help me.

["The Church" means nothing here, but she might as well see if it has its uses.]

Is it always this cold here and, if so, how long does it stay? I would like to know how many others are here as well, and if there is someone named Caius among them. I am searching for him and his friends, as they have something very... precious to me.

[She pauses to tug the coat closer, never mind that it can't exactly get closer to her.]

As stated before, your help is appreciated. [A pause. Information for information, perhaps.] I believe my name and rank will work for an exchange for such mundane queries. I am Rommy, a Prosecutor. I am in service to the Pope, and I share the position with a fellow comrade who no doubt will seek me out provided he is here.

_{[... Hmm... 'Church', huh.]}

Winter's winter. Springtime'll roll around in a couple months.

_{[The girl on the screen looks scruffy, disgruntled, and not particularly impressed with the claims about working for the Pope. Heather Mason has never exactly had a good relationship with religion.]}

'Fraid you won't be getting back to the Vatican any time soon, probably.

[She smirks slightly.]

I suppose our Churches would be differently, wouldn't they. Mine is not located in this Vatican place, but in Janna. Regardless of discrepancies, your information is appreciated. With luck, spring will roll around sooner than a few months.



[Her word choice might be mocking, yeah.]

_{[Heather doesn't look particularly amused. Pausing in the middle of rubbing an eye, she just sort of stares at the screen for a moment or so before drawling--]}

So, what, does spring manifest randomly where you're from instead of just coming after winter? Because here, it's a couple months away.

[Areulla is

much warmer than here, in the first place. It's almost unnoticeable when winter shifts to spring. Rommy purses her lips, because impudence isn't taken lightly.]

I suppose I will just have to find something to keep myself warm in, aside from this clothing provided. [Maybe another beast.] Are there beasts that give off a natural warmth here?

_{[Unfortunately, Heather is pretty much impudence personified. Even when she really shouldn't be. Although she'll at least give civil advice. Anybody'd be thorny upon arrival, right? She can forgive sarcasm.]}

Yeah, there's fire-type Pokemon. I can't think of any that are in the wild in the place everybody arrives in, though. Could be wrong.

Might wanna get to a town ASAP and mail-order a fire Pokemon egg or something.

That would be a smart course of action... [She'll think about it, although she probably will end up doing so.] Once more, your information is appreciated, Miss..?

Mason.

Call me Mason.

What a strange name. [But all names are strange in this world, she's come to gather. This terrible, cold world.] Making your acquaintance is most appreciated as well.

You'll be hearing a LOT of strange names here, I 'spect.

Nice to meet you, anyway. Or something.
