there must be something strangely sacred in salt; it is in our tears and in the sea.

Seeing as she must be on the front lines today, Amaretta is glad that it's as a scout: She is spared from actual battles while still contributing. Although it isn't the fighting that she fears, but rather her identity being discovered; to such an extent that she's donning a mask along with all the usual trappings of this disguise. Some might even call her paranoid.

[break][break]

Yet, if this is paranoia, she's more than justified in being paranoid. It took a great deal of effort to become famous while being sabotaged at every turn, and her career is more precious to her than almost anything else. Now if only she could safely leave Rocket... Alas, in so doing she would almost certainly have her identity exposed, which is the very thing she's trying to avoid. With a small sigh, Amaretta leans back in the saddle as her Lapras ferries her around the river bend —

[break][break]

— only to sit up straight again immediately: There is a Ranger upon the shore, almost close enough to touch. Cazzo, she thinks, her grip on the reins tightening until her knuckles are bone-white. Go scouting, they said. It'll be easy, they said. Most of the League forces may be occupied in the wider confrontation a few miles away, but Lady Luck is clearly not on her side.

[break][break]

"I do not suppose," she begins conversationally, "there's any chance you'll let me pass through peacefully?"

Lutgarde doesn't assist in battle efforts - their eyes are locked mostly on the wellbeing of the forcefully displaced pokémon as a ranger and rescue efforts concerning them. However, their patrol has lead them to stumble across a group of scouts close to the shore - the tumultuous sea that Kyogre has left, for now pacified.

Their Milotic Garnet as well as their Togekiss Sylph have been sent to spread out - Garnet taking a look at further bodies of water, while Sylph's as ever doing a diligent job of surveying the area from above. Oreo, the Galarian Rapidash, has taken to the land, and distant psychic pings reassure Lutgarde of her wellbeing and success of smaller battles fought. There's a faint smile that still lingers as they themself come across a Rocket, clearly visible from the garb.

Their black-red-dyed Sylveon is by Lutgarde's side, and similiar to his trainer, there's a moment of pity. Of reluctance, as they always seem to be troubled when coming face to face with the enemy.

Another human, they think, and yet.

But there's a gentle tug with the ribbon connecting them, and Lutgarde nods. Opposite ends - a mentality of flinch and you'll lose.

"I'm afraid not," they reply, gesturing for Sylv to stand back for now, and call for their Primarina Noh with a flourish that befits the shy diva - though it also is equally awkward then, too, as Lutgarde isn't really used to showy things of the elegant kind, despite their appearance. Even in uniform, there's bows and ribbons, a little bit of lace.

The Primarina readies, singing quietly to the water surrounding him as he calls for an Aqua Ring to lay itself around him.
