More people congregated around the statue in the middle of the sports field. Gunner picked up his pace, hoping to speak with PENELOPE LIVY as soon as possible and receive orders. However, something unusual caught his eye: a folded parchment caught on a bleacher, fluttering in the breeze.[break][break]

He snatched it up, curious. The fragile paper unfurled, revealing cursive words in dark ink. Gunner quickly scanned it, his brow creasing in confusion. Though the parchment itself seemed little more than discarded garbage, its message sent a chill down the agent's spine.[break][break]

He spoke into the League comms. "I just found something. Maybe it's not important, but I can't help feeling it is. It's a riddle."[break][break]

His eyes scanned the paper again as he read the words out loud: "'In stone, the fairy king's sword shelters in dream. Like a dream, we shall forget it too. Poison plagues the mental faculties and renders the tongue drunk.'"[break][break]

Folding the paper, Gunner continued across the field. Closer now, he could identify those gathered there: Councilwomen Katherine Fairburne and PENELOPE LIVY, Elite Four Greyson Connors and Callan Young, and several Rangers.[break][break]

"Does that sound familiar to anyone?" Gunner asked, still using the comms while he remained out of earshot of the larger group.[break][break]

Then his steps slowed. Among the group of Rangers was none other than Eris Halla, who'd gone missing months ago. And standing next to her was the woman he'd least expected to see.[break][break]

"Summer?" Gunner whispered to himself, incredulous. Shocked outrage swept through him. She was pregnant! She was supposed to be home, comfortable and safe, not standing in the middle of a battlefield.[break][break]

He started to storm over, only to remember he was masked and wearing a League uniform. If she recognized him, it would blow his entire cover to her and expose all of his lies. So he headed straight for the government personnel instead. A calm and measured walk brought him to their side, though rage continued to build within him.[break][break]

The appearance of the High King of Galar brushed away all personal concerns. Gunner listened carefully as the Pokémon, who called itself Calyrex, requested their aid. Though he'd read some Galarian folklore, the agent was not familiar with this 'hero of many battles'. If the High King wanted their aid, they needed more information.[break][break]

"Tell us more about this hero. Who is she?" he asked. Then he turned to the others, nodding his head at Greyson Connors's suggestion. "In that case, I'll go to Circhester."[break][break]

Glancing back toward Summer Atreides, Gunner wondered where she would go. What she would ask.[break][break]

With a bit of luck, Frigg brought her toward the statue where a group of people stood. However, the closer they approached, the more anxiety gnawed a pit in her stomach. Summer's status was publicly aligned to the league. But with so much Rocket allies about, she wondered if this was a good idea after all.[break][break]

She attempted to blend in with the crowd, the ABSOL reuniting her with Eris Halla. She shot her a look of disapproval.[break][break]

"What are you doing here, Eris?" Summer hissed, trying to lower her voice to keep the conversation between them. "You shouldn't be here."[break][break]

Perhaps she was in the wrong to try and scold her. She shouldn't be here either. But she had to hold up her duty for team Rocket. Sighing, her hand rubbed between her eyes to relieve herself of an oncoming migraine.[break][break]

That disappeared as a strange creature appeared before the group. With a shocking force, Summer took a step back as four of the individuals in the group were pulled up, their mouths moving as a voice for this thing. The HIGH KING OF GALAR...[break][break]

Summer looked quickly over at Remiel Calcifet, her eyes wide as he spoke. Did he know this creature? Was it a thing of legend? And how had he failed? So many questions were churning in her mind, she didn't even notice that Gunner Graves had murmured her name and started her way.[break][break]

"Are our loved ones in a similar situation like this one in Hoenn? Or is this something yet to come to us?" Summer asked, reevaluating the area before her. "As for my location... send me to CIRCHESTER."[break][break]

Summer finally felt eyes on her, turning and making contact with the masked Gunner Graves. Her eyes narrowed, arms crossed over her chest as she guarded herself protectively. "What are you looking at? The goods are taken."

GOODBYE GALAR: RUSTED SWORD

[attr="class","gideon-words"]

Looking over his shoulder, one hand still held by skyler dross's URSHIFU, GIDEON GRAVES noticed athena oswald's approach and subsequent attempt at 'helping' them escape. [break][break]

"No, wait—!" The professor tried to warn her against any rash action, but the damage was already done. Within seconds a thick geyser of dark liquid erupted from the ground, threatening to drench them in debilitating poison.[break][break]

His ROTOM managed to neutralize some, while Johnny moved quickly to thrust them out of harm's way.[break][break]

Two months was enough time to regain function, but not enough time to heal completely. While Gideon was grateful to be pushed out of the way of the oncoming poison, his bad shoulder was what slammed into the concrete wall – causing him to groan in pain and clutch at his upper arm. Frail, indeed. Thanks, unnamed ROCKET madwoman (Elisabeth Fiorelli).[break][break]

"Let's..." Grimacing, Gideon fixed athena oswald with a stern look. "...Temper our actions for now. We don't know the peculiarities of this world just yet."[break][break]

Almost as soon as the words left his lips, a fanciful creature on a dark horse appeared. Quite the peculiarity, especially when it began to weave its tale to those gathered. As the pain in Gideon's shoulder subsided, his curiosity grew. [break][break]

Patting Johnny's arm in thanks, the professor moved a few steps closer off the wall to get a better look at what was happening by the statue.[break][break]

'...little grows in this land by nature’s hand, and i have no talent for producing goods from soil...'

[break]

Odd. Gideon's brows furrowed at this statement. If he remembered the legend from his years spent studying in Galar, the Pokémon before them was the King of Bountiful Harvests, known for its ability to cause verdant grasses and blooms to spring from nothing. What a contradictory thing to say...[break][break]

Then the talk of restoring a hero from somewhere within Galar. That also had an air of familiarity to it. But the hero's revival was pitched as a way to return home from this 'reminiscence' – a memory?[break][break]

"What 'ruined' your kingdom?" Silently, Gideon wondered if what happened here was an omen of things to come in Hoenn.[break][break]

Turning back to skyler dross and angelo vestri, he nodded his head in confirmation. If they were to go anywhere in this ruined world, a place steeped in history seemed as good as any to try and revive a fallen hero.[break][break]

"Circhester? Alright. I hope you two brought coats."[break] [break]

[attr="class","illeana i"]it's an odd sensation, really, to be shoved out of the driver's seat in your own body.

her eyes widen with the creeping presence of another. it is not familiar, it is not comfortable. she feels a slight trickle of fear override the senses before possession takes full hold.

and as she's nothing more than a bystander as her mouth opens and closes like a marionette operating for its puppeteer, there is little she can do until the hold is released over her body.

slamming back into control, into full reality, a gasp escapes as the ground rushes up to meet her. SHEBA INOUE assists with a softer landing, preventing limbs and bones from smacking unceremoniously into dirt.

"thank you..."

it comes out toward SHEBA INOUE in a breathless string of syllables, still reeling from the feeling of another being in her mind. she already wants to scrub her brain to rid herself of the sensation... that will linger for a while now.

and the high king, with his bulbous pimple-looking head and irritating air, grants them a single question.

"is this your memory or the hero's memory?"

after the question is asked, she steps closer to Greyson Connors and aaron faust. her eyes dart, for a moment, to find Remiel Calcifet's eyes on her. she does not allow the shared look to linger, instead immediately averting her gaze to focus on aaron faust instead. her hands reach for aaron faust, gentle and wrapped in pink mist.

"you okay?"

oh, wait.

"uh, going ballonlea with these two."

After the two vigilantes managed to reconvene with one another the noise around them was silence by the arrival of two pokemon; a horse similar to Glastrier and its rider. As the two of them approached the trough and ate from the offerings the rider Pokemon then went and seemed to speak through the bodies of four other people who were suddenly lifted into the air. On instinct Kaz was ready to jump in and try to bring them down until this "high king" introduced himself and gave his plea.

Putting the pieces together it seemed that strange dog with the sword that was fighting is hiding in wait licking its wounds. In order to help it they would need to weave heroic stories to try and coax her out of her hiding place. He had to guess it worked like how a Legendaries picked their avatars, maybe something they resonated with would bring them out. Either way if they did draw it out then it was important that they keep it safe till this was over.

When it was time to choose where to go to try and find this "hero" Kaz took a second to think about the choices. One of them was his hometown and he was sure that his time spent in the forests would be helpful in trying to find the heroic canine. It was Thomas Benoit shouting out Hammerlocke's name that drew his attention. He didn't want to abandon the guy and leave his kindred spirit buddy on his lonesome so he also shouted out, "Hammerlocke for me!"

Still there was the matter of a question.

What could he even ask?

"Will we see you again after this?"

There were still questions he himself had but most were already asked and now was not the time for a quiz. Still leaving this royal here by his lonesome was leaving a pit in his stomach. Maybe it was the fact that it was asking a lot of them as a plea that got Kaz feeling like this.

Serena was seriously concerned for Rowan, he wasn't looking good at all. Just when she was about to Momo if there was anything she could do, a stranger approached the pair quickly. Serena sensed him before he even said anything. Whipping her head around with one hand placed on the hilt of her Doublades she glared at this unknown stranger. [break][break]

Despite clearly being alarmed she withheld pouncing on this said stranger because it clearly seemed they were familiar with Rowan and cared about his wellbeing. She wouldn't want to accidently hurt one of Rowan's friends. Still, when surrounded by Rockets and a Galar clearly in ruins she was left feeling uneasy. [break][break]

The stranger suggested they might be of assistance and Serena nodded, shifting over to allow him to help Rowan as well. Remiel Calcifet also made his way over to check on Rowan before suggesting they give him some space. Serena supposed that would be the next best thing to do. As she shifted her weight as she prepared to stand however, she noticed something odd. A small pool of what seemed to be poison had managed to stain and seep into Rowan's shoes. [break][break]

What kind of poison she wasn't sure. It wasn't like she could collect a sample at the current moment. She had no supplies and she wasn't even sure if she was properly equipped with an antidote. It could just be nothing but anxiety was slowly settling in. What if it wasn't just 'nothing' and something bad happened to Rowan because of this mysterious poison?[break][break]

"Hey Rowan, listen--" Serena began as she spoke to him softly before her words were cut short by the hiss whispers of those around her. Turning around she would notice Calyrex riding in on his noble steed, a Spectrier. It swiftly managed to pull all the attention of the stadium to itself before choosing a few hosts to be it's mouthpieces.[break][break]

After listening to everything Calyrex had to say it would seem they all had a goal to accomplish. Who knew when they would be able to return home after all. Besides, Rowan made her decision for her by making it known his plan was to head to Circhester. The stranger beside them agreed to follow Rowan which only made the former beast frown. [break][break]

Meanwhile beside them Remiel Calcifet addressed them once more. It would seem he had his own plans, and Serena couldn't blame him. She was sure there was a lot he wanted to do. After all, she couldn't imagine how he felt seeing his home in such a state. "Understood." Serena said as she nodded at him. "Take care of yourself, Calcifet." She'd say before turning her attention back to her little group. "I'll be going with you." She said to Rowan gently, "Let me know if you suddenly feel sick. Don't try to shoulder the pain all on your own."[break][break]

Her words could easily be taken for encouragement for his mental wellbeing, which she was also concerned for. But what she was really worried about was that poison. For now she would have to observe him and be prepared to hop in and deal with whatever would come of this situation. At least this plan would give her enough time to think of something more helpful.

NOTES

💀 ~~Serena~~ Aisha's open for interaction![break]
💀 TL;DR - [GOING TO CIRCHESTER] Resists the urge to tell this stranger (Aidan Hereford) to back away from her friend, before realizing he clearly must know Rowan. Notices the poison that's seeped into Rowan's shoe. Attempts to warn Rowan of it but is interrupted by Calyrex appearing. Doesn't have any questions for now but agrees that she'll be tagging along to keep an eye on Rowan Wrynn and Aidan Hereford.[break]

[attr="class","adrie-img2"]

[attr="class","inner-finally"]Several more people gather around the statue, but she has no reason to heed them any mind as long as they don't attempt to wring her. Instead, as her focus ravels around the wood, she sees it - A sickly purple sludge seeming to eat at it from within.[break][break]

"Azalea..." A quick swap of her pokeballs allows her to call upon her Shaymin, the little hedgehog lifted up to the cracks just to take a closer peek. "Do you think you could purify this...?"[break][break]

But before she can catch a glimpse of the Shaymin's response, her attention is pulled in far too many directions. Raziel Beckett bopping her head makes her squeak out, wincing as she tries to rub the pain away to no avail. And then Summer Atreides ganks her soon after with that all too telling look that many have given her before.[break][break]

"I'm... capable of taking care of myself." As she has done many times before, even if it's simply her scraping by. Mismatched eyes hover over the woman, her expressions kept even as she looks to her belly for a split second, then flicks back up to meet her gaze. "I'm not gonna sit around and let bad things happen to the people I care for."[break][break]

Not to Chu-e Choi, not to Summer Atreides, not to the people she holds close to her heart nor to those she might behold in the future. Perhaps, it's a wrong step, but it's a step towards her own hope of being someone better.[break][break]

But then comes the weirdest figure of them all, the strange being that has a statue carved in its likeness. It's disconcerting how easily it possesses other people, her fingers quick to clutch at Summer's clothes as she holds her breath. Somber reminiscence? Save his kingdom? Calyrex... hero of many battles... create stories of heroism...[break][break]

Yeah, she's lost. Nothing of what he says tells her how they're gonna get back to Hoenn, nor does it makes their current situation any clearer for her. All she can really hope is that maybe by helping this high king, they'll be working towards this... common solution that works out for everyone in one way or another.[break][break]

Azelf's location is very much a question that burns in her mind, and yet she doesn't believe Calyrex might know much about it. Or even if it did, it would be a struggle for her to ask without having eyes drawn towards her. But if offered the chance to ask something, she has to take it somehow.[break][break]

"T- the..."[break][break]

Her voice falters among the crowd. Everyone is talking, everyone is trying to get their thoughts on the table and she's finds herself being overwhelmed. They're all asking such good questions, they're all pursuing truths that she'd never thought to try and grasp. They know more than she does, they focus on things that bring so much more in the bigger scheme of things. Where are they even going? How do they choose where they go?[break][break]

She has to do something, she has to know. She has to speak up. In that brief lull between one question and the next, she grasps at what she's given. Taking a short step forward, she raises her hand and tries to make her voice heard.[break][break]

"I- uhm- The black knight! H- how is it related to the knight of pure light, if at all?"

"Yeah."
[break][break]
But there was more. Penelope could feel that there was more to the dilapidated columns and field littered with debris. It vibrated beneath her skin, blood singing in loud shrilly pitches that demanded recognition.
[break][break]
Its persistence is what drew her attention from Melody Miro, ollie morales, @navy, and whoever else reached out their hand to their aid.
[break][break]
Only Gunner Graves's communication managed to break through her thickening haze.
[break][break]
"Of course, they're giving us fuckin' riddles. Whatever. Good work," she relayed back into the communication device before flicking it back off. "What do y-"
[break][break]
Before the words could finish their tune, a king had made his arrival. Arrogance bled from the way his steed trotted onto the field, head held high and knees raising in proper elegance. Together, with Chi-yu still by her side, the councilwoman kept a cautious eye on the creature. She watched as he stationed himself closer to the congregation surrounding the statue.
[break][break]
"We should move in closer."
[break][break]
Whether the others would follow or not offered mattered little. She made her approach.
[break][break]
Surprise never wrinkled Penelope's face as it did others. Calyrex looked to be just another pretentious god puppeteering whatever laid at its disposal. What did, however, spark her interest was his offering of answers.
[break][break]
A rarity nowadays, it seems.
[break][break]
"What caused the ruination of your kingdom?"
[break][break]
She then glanced back over her shoulder, eyes meeting Katherine Fairburne and ollie morales's.
[break][break]
"I'm going to Motosoke, I think. How about you two?"

"ha... sorry." derek remarks to the bulky blonde whose splashed with the water derek's pokemon provided. the ranger takes note of eris' approach soon after. reluctant to show any preferential treatment towards a rocket, derek makes a quiet nod towards her while taking in what callan appears to suggest about the interdream.

everything felt like a shot in the dark at this point. at least until calyrex appears, prompting those gathered to shower the regal brain with their inquiries. though derek wasn't a fan of the manner in which calyrex accomplished this. possession felt a little nefarious, even if the rabbit king appeared earnest with this plight.

"damn." there were a lot of good questions covered. some less so. derek isn't sure how to make use of the opportunity, or even where to go. but there is one thing he wished to know...

"...how does one master dynamax energy?" perhaps there wasn't a way. or one that was beyond his reach. derek just thought it might help. another time, if not today. "also, let's go with... motostoke." the place seemed neglected compared to the rest. while also aspiring to avoid the larger crowds, the ranger felt it would be nice to keep some familiar faces around.

tl;dr
derek asks how to master dynamax energy
derek chooses motostoke to avoid the crowd

A grim neigh echoes and Razz forces himself to stop after his first initial attack as Razz looks to the legend that comes before them. And while it seems like native born Galarians like Remiel Calcifet and possibly Navy seem to recognize this legend as some 'old king' the Head Ranger wasn't too sure just yet. Too much going on to just take the pokemon at their word because how would they know they weren't part of the cause? Didn't seem too farfetched with the way they seemed to just control people in order to talk for it. [break][break]

A distraction from the legend only comes when the woman, Summer Atreides, from earlier shows up. Razz watching as she gets close to Eris and claims that she shouldn't be there. Something he agreed on given where she should be currently but has come to learn she was a problem child. "Shes a lot more capable than you think," he attempts to reassure the other in some way as he thinks about the question that was given by the 'king.' [break][break]

He hears the questions asked all around and seeing how most of what comes to mind is already answered Razz decides to go to the one city whoes name he is sure he has heard before, even if he couldn't reason as to why. Not to mention that it seemed that some of his Rangers plus Eris wanted to go as well so it seemed to be the smart move. "I'll try and lend my aide to Circhester," Razz offers.

As they were flying left and right and up and down. Ghost had to think of something and something fast.
He was new to all this and he was late to the party it was an all-out war and he did not have a clue as to why. So much carnage and no one could even explain why. As he looked down he notice something but he was not too sure what it was. There were so much smoke and battle cries it could drive a sane person mad.

Still, he would start to descend toward the ongoing battles to try and aid. Still, he did not know what all this was about or where he even was. Soon enough Salamence would stop mid-air. As he let out a roar. Something was coming and he did not know what.
Was this person friend or for? Only time could tell. Soon enough as he looked on he would see four people floating in the air. This had him looking crazy. As they began to speak and speak all at the same time. This would all bring him to another view. Something else was here from somewhere else. "It could not be is that it? Calyrex but that Pokemon is just a myth. But if it's just a myth then why is it right here right now?" Soon he would start to hear everyone asking the legendary questions.

One after the other but one thing Ghost did not fail to hear. Was that Calyrex did not ask just one side but he asked everyone here? For a moment he was glad this fruitless battle was over.

But one thing was for sure he heard his friend's voice and that put a smile on his face as he called out her name, "SHALIN!!!"

Notes
Ghost is hovering towards the ground now as he went to check out the location below him.
Did not make a battle move but is observing everything.
Notice Calyrex and is watching everyone from the back.
Called out to his friend Shalin to alert her that he was there as well.

Ruby gritted her teeth in the face of the onslaught of bullets and Gunk Shots. "Show yourself, coward!" she shouted to whoever was firing. Ashley Shepard had apparently found something, but Ruby barely registered it, focused more on deflecting any oncoming attacks.

[break][break]A Grim Neigh reverberated through the air, carrying with it an eerie wind that forced all conflict to a halt. Ruby didn't recognize the Pokémon that rode in on its ghostly steed from either reality or myth. It found four trainers to speak through and gave thanks for the offerings that Ruby hadn't been paying a lick of attention to. Then, it asked for all present to work together to perform feats of heroism, and Ruby couldn't help but let out a sardonic laugh.

[break][break]"You're asking the wrong person," she said. "You're better off just sending me back."

[break][break]Others were saying where they wanted to be sent. Ashley Shepard chose to follow paxton concordas to Hammerlocke. A familiar voice—Johanna Joy, Ruby realized—was going to Ballonlea. Ruby just crossed her arms, not wanting any part in this farce.

GOODBYE GALAR: RUSTED SWORD

SELENA HAS ONLY ENOUGH TIME TO SEE HOW THE STATUE IS DRENCHED IN THAT PURPLE SAP, the liquid eating away at the cracks of the wooden effigy. Curiously, she attempts to run her fingers along the creases that runs purple before she is lifted from the ground and is taken possession by what called itself CALYREX.

Its otherwordly powers lifted her with the group in midair and speaks to the people through their mouths. She can still remember everything—High King of Ruined Kingdom, the Hero of Many Battles, the cities that are left—nothing at all makes sense! Upon release, she is caught by the power of SHEBA INOUE 's Delphox and regards her with a small nod. The anxious Lucifer scrambles to his trainer and assists her standing up—in which Selena requests for him to CALM (HIS) MIND for they need not to be at their wits' end.

Selena waits and eagerly listens as people around her throw in their questions. If you would ask a Pokemon that calls itself High King any question, what would it be? Nothing from what it said makes any sense to her. But then, it mentions about bringing them to places where they can make stories of heroism. So instead, she just focuses on the thing that she knows about: Ballonlea, Hammerlocke, Cischester, Motostoke.

She purses her lips, bites her thumb; Selena is creating a visual image of the cities that Calyrex mentioned in the island of Galar. Is there a pattern?

"Can you tell us what makes these cities different from the rest that are now in ruins? If I will be of help to you, then take me where you see me fit."

TL;DR
- SELENA sees the statue drenched and touches the PURPLISH LIQUID
- SELENA is POSSESSED (RAWR) but is eventually released
- UMBREON uses CALM MIND to prepare for upcoming situations
- SELENA contemplates about questions; inquires upon herself if there is a pattern among the remaining cities
- Asks: "CAN YOU TELL US WHAT MAKES THESE CITIES DIFFERENT FROM THE REST THAT ARE NOW IN RUINS?"
- Says: "IF I WILL BE OF HELP TO YOU, THEN TAKE ME WHERE YOU SEE ME FIT." Has no preference of the place
- 1x SALAC BERRY

The ground beneath his feet is slippery with garbage goo and he wretches again as he shakily gets to his feet. With Ahamkara off trying to savage the Octillery that attacked him, he’s Pokemonless and alone— in a crowd, sort of, of people that have gathered close to the statue.
[break][break]
A shimmering rainbow aura spreads out above him and Kepler sighs in relief. “Holy shit thank you benevolent god,” he mutters (not entirely aware he’s giving thanks to Ruby Garcia ) smearing purple, rancid ooze over his cheek as he attempts to wipe it away. Just, noxious garbage shit drops down from his hair and he dips his head to let it fall and notices something in the dirt. He stoops to pick it up, pulling free a slightly glimmering yellow-orange plume. “Oh, good, I just need some ink and I can write a missive,” he says, exhaustion making his voice waver as he tucks the feather safely into his battle suit.
[break][break]
Then shit gets rea weird and people start floating. Kepler yelps and stumbles back away from the statue, the hovering, possessed-looking people and the bulbous-headed beast on the ghost horse. A flourish of lights beam outwards in different directions like a Captain Planet cartoon.
[break][break]
“I only get one— one question!” He said, exasperated but changing his tone at the last second to make it an exclamation so he didn’t fucking waste his one question on that bullshit. This wasn’t fair— access to seemingly limitless information and he gets one fucking question. The scientist in him was a writhing.
[break][break]
“I choose wherever Ashley Shepard is going,” he says, “and… um… shit… shit, fuck, I gotta think about this… can you show us the way to prevent the destruction of all the universes without sacrificing our own?”
[break][break]
He hoped that was worded enough to prevent a simple yes or no answer.
