He nodded. "If it was the real Uxie, then it'd make sense it showed up for me and Hideo Kino."

Doro-Doro snorted as she rejoined her trainer, leaving behind a plot of freshly-tilled dirt for Locke to use. Grateful, Locke retrieved a bowl from his bag and poured half the water in for the Mudsdale, taking a chug for himself before picking up the Gracidea again.

The planting process distracted them from Matias' gradually increasing interest, but not enough to stop them from absentmindedly answering the older man's question.

"Oh, well Hideo was there like I said, but I didn't really catch anybody else's names. They're probably all in the proper report if you can find it again."

very, if Hideo Kino's gym badges are anything to go by. but since meeting the boy in person, matias has been able to form an opinion of his own, and so far, he's impressed.[break][break]

he watches locke continue to plant the gracidea.[break][break]

"would it make sense because uxie's shown interest in you and Hideo Kino, or?"

angelo vestri, Eris Halla, and 1 more like this

[attr="class","charactername"]

368 for MATIAS SILPH

"A real champ in the making!" At least, that was what an old battle announcer he used to watch would say about the young prodigy.

Locke gave the earth one final pat down to ensure the sapling was secure, then stood up and dusted the remaining dirt from his hands. "Sort of?" he continued as he made his way back to his bag. "There's this whole thing, with these charms-hang on, lemme find it."

After taking a moment to rifle through his things the courier produced a Pokéball and the Unusual Charm he'd found months ago. He passed the latter to Matias to inspect, and released his Piplup from the former.

"Give that a little squirt Pip-Pip," they gestured to the Gracidea before returning their full attention to the other man. "I got that back before the Soiree, after I spotted a weird yellow Pokémon in a garden I was working in. Trouble was I couldn't remember that's how I got it, cause of Uxie's whole-"

They made vague wavey motions around their head.

"Except I could remember, but only whenever I saw one of the charms given to someone by Mesprit. Turns out those had given a whole bunch of em away, while Azelf went around given people prophecies. But cause Mesprit did a similar thing to the people it gave its charm, nobody could really talk about." A slightly more concise summary than they'd been able to give angelo vestri, but in their defense they'd had a pretty stressful day then.

"But then back in January, Martín del Mar-he got visited by Azelf, so he could talk about and investigate this stuff unlike most of us-he got the bright idea to gather up as many of us as he could in one place! And when we did, the whole Lake Trio turned up too, and after they gave us all a buncha prophecies, suddenly we could remember and talk about all the stuff that'd happened so far."

Locke conveniently skipped the part where they, Martin, and Eris Halla all made trips to the emergency room afterwards, but their expression grew uncharacteristically grim as they continued. "Between that what me, Martin, and Eris remembered from when we met up in September…"

locke gives matias a relatively concise summary of everything that's happened so far, and for that he's grateful. he would've been lost without it.[break][break]

the unusual charm feels light in his hands as he inspects it.[break][break]

"wow! that all sounds...like a lot."[break][break]

too much of a burden for one soul to bear which is why he assumes there are others. Eris Halla included which for whatever reason doesn't surprise him.[break][break]

"uxie, mesprit, and azelf..." he repeats to get more familiar with the names. "who else is involved, locke?"

"Um...I didn't really get everyone's names." Seeing as how they kind of had to leave in a hurry. "But aside from the ones I already mentioned? I recognized priam conrad and Katherine Fairburne-and I think I overheard chryssa glasgow talking about Azelf at the Soiree, but she didn't make it to the meeting."

Locke pieced through his memory, before recalling with a snap of his fingers. "Oh-and Sénon Game! I was the only one who knew at the time though, but since I didn't remember he couldn't get invited to the meeting..."

all familiar names, matias decides to put that knowledge away for some other time. the most concerning—well, maybe not concerning but it is intriguing—is Katherine Fairburne. it's been over a year since they had their drink. maybe it's time for another.[break][break]

"must be pretty cool to see uxie and the rest."[break][break]

matias smiles. as scary as it sounds, it's equally exciting.[break][break]

"...have you seen Eris Halla recently?"

"Hardly-in fact I'd much prefer if weird things like that would happen to me less often," Locke whined. Speaking of weird things, hadn't they been trying to talk about something else?

Matias was already probing him with another question before he could fully recall what that something else was though. About Eris of all people. "Hm? Oh yeah, loads! Have you two met? She's a good kid, but I wish we'd quit running into each other in such dangerous places..."

"That makes sense," he mused, remembering how all three of them had met surrounding the odd tree on Route 113. "I think she's pretty fond of Eva too." He then frowned with confusion as another, more recent encounter with the young girl came to mind.

"At least they came looking... people thought I was dead, that we were dead... because no one thought a kid like me would survive..."

"I know we're both from Vermilion, but she told me nobody had ever found her." At least, not before Rocket did.

"...Oh," he said. "You know about that."

Locke cast a quick glance at Matias' expression, suddenly aware of their respective positions on Hoenn's stage. He was talking to a member of the Elite Four, and a soldier at that.

There was something fragile hanging in the air between them now, and the courier needed to take extra care to trace his steps around it.

"Does anybody else know?" he cautiously asked, mentally retracing the last few minutes of conversation to try and pin down the other man's intentions. "Er-About Eris Halla being..."

it seems they've started to steer towards the true purpose of their conversation today. or at least matias has.[break][break]
