Lutgarde has to admit, they've never been much of a history buff. They knew the past of their village in Kalos, sure, but that's mostly because it was impossible not to when you grow up there with only so much to the whole world. (It was never not enough; just limited, as they've found later, but not in a lacking way.) (They considered the thought, then let go of it.)

"You've been here before?" they ask their companion for this mission, Elise Calcifet. It's been a welcome surprise to not only have someone with similiarly eccentric fashion choices as neighbour, but also actually someone working the same métier as them! "I'm not sure how much good I'll do with logic puzzles, but if there's anything that needs some force, I've got you," they laugh, looking at the entrance with a curious glance.

As always, their Sylveon Sylv, coloured in black and red hues to match Lutgarde (and vice-versa), has a ribbon wrapped around his trainer's wrist, cooing seemingly in agreement with Lutgarde's words. "And Sylv will also help, of course." There's a moment of tensing muscles, preparing for the unknown that makes them both cautious and ... excited, in a way.

"I'll go first and you lead the way?" It remains unspoken, but there'd be an almost tangible sense of discomfort for having Elise (and anyone) go in front of them when the terrain's about to become potentially quite dangerous.
