[nospaces] [attr="class","calebtest8"] [attr="class","body"] Right. Her dragon.[break][break] "Sure you don't want to join me permanently?" Caleb joked, which caused Lyune to snort and shake his head dismissively - the dragon version of rolled eyes. Caleb laughed, but a part of him was genuinely disappointed by the prospect of parting with the starry Salamence.[break][break] "Take me to the top first?"[break][break] Lyune complied, Caleb's final request an easy one to fulfill. As they crested the chasm lip, Caleb noticed that the mechanical paradoxes had manifested above ground as well as below. Sparking parts lay strewn about, mixed with ice, dirt and blood, as did the bodies of human and Pokemon alike. It was a grisly scene, but one that Caleb did not look away from.[break][break] And across the battlefield, the Kyurem continued to rumble ominously. The Hoopa's translations had ended; in fact, the djinn was entirely absent now. And another massive form had risen, a familiar pink dragon; the last time Palkia had been spotted was at Mt. Pyre over a year ago. Why was it back?[break][break] As Caleb slid off Lyune's back, boots crunching on ice and snow, he paused, looking up at the dragon. "Gareskle," he tried out, the language guttural and deep. Gratitude. He pressed a hand to Lyune's hide, and closed his eyes, feeling the rhythmic beating of the creature's heart. It was calming somehow, amidst all the chaos around them.[break][break] ...HEROES MUST RETURN TO SLAY GIANTS...[break][break] Caleb's eyes snapped open. What had once sounded like gibberish without the Hoopa, now entered his mind as clear as if the Kyurem was broadcasting its strange message in the common tongue. His hand fell, and Lyune launched himself back into the sky to go after freya morningstar, trailing starlight. A pang of longing swept through Caleb at the sight. The words of the prophecy were indistinguishable again. Maybe he'd merely imagined it.[break][break] A screech caught his attention, and he turned to see a struggling Volcarona making her way towards him. "Viv!" He called out, relieved. She had made it through the blizzard, but was clearly injured because of it. He returned her to her Pokeball, then brought out another.[break][break] So much suffering, so much death. Caleb's entire body felt like it might collapse at any moment. Warring with exhaustion, he considered his options.[break][break] What would Isaac Merlo be doing, if he were here?[break][break] The answer was obvious.[break][break] Lyra emerged in a burst of energy. Caleb hopped up onto the Lapras's back, her shell a comforting podium. She trilled, looking back at him, bright eyes determined.[break][break] "Let's find any survivors. Help as many people as we can."TO SOW DRAGON'S TEETH (RIGHT)[break] NOTES[break] – Caleb is dressed in standard League-issued combat gear[break] – freya morningstar wants her dragon back, so Caleb directs Lyune to drop him off at the lip of the chasm[break] - Back on the battlefield, as he parts with Lyune, Caleb realizes that he can understand the prophecy coming from the Kyurem now, even though Hoopa is gone.[break] - Sees Vivien (Volcarona) struggling towards him, de-thawed but weak. Returns her to her Pokeball and releases Lyra (Lapras)[break] - Caleb directs Lyra to help the injured with LIFE DEW [attr="class","pkmn"] [newclass=".calebtest8"]--accent:#3ad1e1;font:13px Roboto;[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 b"]color:var(--accent);[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 i"]color:var(--accent);[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 u"]text-underline-offset:3px;text-decoration-color:var(--accent);[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 a"]font:13px Roboto;color:var(--accent);[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 h1"]font:16px Roboto;color:var(--accent);font-weight:bold;[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 h2"]font:14px Roboto;color:var(--accent);font-weight:bold;[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 .body"]background-image:url("https://image.ibb.co/cpf8Wc/flower_patt.png");background-position:bottom;background-repeat:no-repeat;text-align:justify;[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 .pkmn img"]margin:-10px -7px 0px -7px;[/newclass] [newclass=".calebtest8 .credit"]font-size:13px;[/newclass]
