El smiles softly, as Cygne says her farewells - and they nod back. "Of course - you be safe." They respond - giving her hand a gentle squeeze, before standing and taking a step back so that Kanaya can teleport the both of them away.

And once El is left to themself and their pokemon... They can't help but immediately realize something. "Ahck - maybe I should've given her my phone number?" They mumbled - glancing over to Bibidi, adding "It'd be kinda hard for us to tell her where Sima is, if, y'know..."

Bibidi, amused, simply gave them the mental equivalent of a pat on the shoulder - and impressed an image of Blackjack. It was clear he and Cygne knew one another - and they knew how to get into contact with him.

Which, the idea had El blinking, before nodding with a gentle sigh. "Right - right, I should let him know we found her and helped her, anyways..." Having Akero wash the blood off their hands with Life Dew, they glance between their pokemon, and then to the remains of Sima - at the other side of the cavern.

A mighty dragon - a beloved one - brought low... But, she'd get the resting place she deserved - in a place she loved. And really, could anyone ask for anything better? "... Let's get to work, guys." El breathes softly - they had a number of things to do, before they could resume their rescue work in Ultra Deep Sea. . .

. . . It wouldn't be long before a note was left at Isaac Merlo 's camp - among his belongings in his own tent, in plain view. The handwriting would be familiar as always - and even if it didn't have a signature at the bottom, it'd leave no doubt as to who it was from.

Blackjack -

I found Swan. She was pretty injured - but I patched her up the best I could, and told her gardevoir to take her to a doctor. She wasn't in the best headspace when I found her, either - but I hope that us talking helped her some.

Bibidi shared the camp's location with her gardevoir, for when Swan's in better shape - but she'll probably be at one of your guys' outposts otherwise, if I had to guess?

I meant to give her my number, but I forgot to mention it to her before they left - I wrote it on the back here. Make sure she gets it please?

Hope you and your pokemon are all doing okay - stay safe.
