A hum of appreciation slips from Georgette's throat as she admires the expansive hedge maze which opens before her. Lifting a hand to absently touch one of the nearby branches filled with leaves, her fingertips run over the length of an ovate leaf before allowing her arm to rest once more at her side. She briefly considered releasing one of her pokemon, only to immediately reconsider at the thought of one of them bolting deeper into the maze with too much curiosity for their own good.

Glancing left, and then right, Georgette spins on her heel towards the LEFT.

THE FIRST CHECKPOINT


As if shivering with anticipation, the leaf bounces lightly in the wake of your touch -- as if it is as eager as the Roselia to see where your path may lead.

The Roselia guarding this first of many choices nods, bowing as she steps aside to let you enter your chosen path. The other closes abruptly in a curtain of moss and vines at the Pokemon's behest, unable to be retread.

Your choice at the first checkpoint is decided; your path is set.

You go LEFT.[break]

THE PATH LESS TRAVELED BY



As you advance deeper into the maze, flowers of every hue blossom and unfurl around you, as if celebrating your passage deeper into the leafy foliage. Sunlight spills forth through the crevices of leaves and branches, at last revealing a Lilligant who stands before you.

She elegantly curtseys with a smile, as if she has been long awaiting your presence. In her leafy hands, she holds a boxed gift:
[break]
Pokeballs
FIVE POKEBALLS. You have PASSED the first checkpoint!


Behind her another choice awaits you: a winding, looping path to the left, and a narrow and snaking path to the right.

Which path shall you take, ?

Stepping through the shadows of the hedges to be met with a bed of burgeoning flowers, Georgette admires their myriad colours, a gentle smile touching her lips. 's work was truly beautiful.
[break][break]
The sight of the Lilligant who curtsies draws a soft laugh from the woman, her voice soft as she greets the pokemon with a low, "Hello, and thank you." Taking the small box, Georgette purses her lips together as she takes the pokeballs and places her prize within her satchel and then looks around, both paths measured with equal debate.
[break][break]
Her mind eventually made up, Georgette tries to the RIGHT, disappearing into the snaking path.

THE SECOND CHECKPOINT


Your manners do not go unnoticed as the Lilligant beams at you, pleased to have given you a happy surprise in this winding maze.

Still smiling, the Lilligant that guards this second checkpoint bobs her head in silent understanding, stepping aside to let you enter your chosen path. The other closes abruptly in a curtain of moss and vines at the Pokemon's behest, unable to be retread.

Your choice at the second checkpoint is decided; your path is set.

You go RIGHT.[break]

OUT OF THE WOODS



You follow the long and winding path of the maze, eyes scanning for the next possible glimpse of the promised checkpoint ahead. The flowers, however, seem to furl up and diminish in your shadow; it occurs to you, after some time of endless wandering and meandering, that your path only goes one way.

Out.

The radiant smile of a Bellossom greets you, dancing over to you with a consolation gift in her hands. Next to her, the figure of her trainer, , gives a small, sympathetic smile. "Well done, . You got further than most, and your reward should reflect that," she says, gesturing for you to open the proffered box.
