Well, Babs guessed that was the sort of thing that happened when people all decided to run around with torches. Maybe there were downsides to this revoltin thing after all. It was pretty obvious that she wasn't all there anymore, poor thing must have taken it pretty hard. Talking like the flames could speak to her themselves. In all her life Babs hadn't seem anything of the like so she was a tad skeptical. She supposed it was fine if OTHERS believed in that sort of thing, as long as they didn't get it in their fool heads that they needed to walk around lighting things on fire. Babs had heard many Havvestim myths while sitting around a fire when everyone was inside for the night so she supposed that wouldn't hurt anything. Hopping up from her seat she wiped her slightly sticky hands on her handkerchief.
"Well, I spose I know a few yarns. First, we should concentrate on getting there I reckon."

Aleri clapped her hands happily at hearing that Babs would take up her request as well as Raoul. "This will be so much fun! I haven't traveled together with other people since the accident!" Happily humming, she pulled a folded piece of paper from her pocket, opening it and laying it on the table. "This is the thing I'm looking for specifically. So if you have any info on that, it would be much appreciated."
The paper showed a large, red-scaled lizard-like beast. Its face was almost in a permanent grimace as two large clawed-hands protruded from its forearms.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alexia had taken a little while longer to arrive downstairs, having taken the time to clean herself up and get her armor back on. She blushed upon spotting Star before joining the priestess and Jioni. "I want to thank you for all the information and... instruction you provided last night. It was all very enlightening." The armored maiden sat and began eating her own breakfast before continuing. "I will be ready anytime. I do not wish to take more of your time, though I would love to as well, since we both have our own missions to accomplish."

Unlike Jioni's training earlier which involved a fighting, Star's training was simpler. As they ate she brought out each of her pokemon in turn to feed them and tell them how proud she was of them. A simple daily affirmation that left each and every one inspired. It was the small things, wanting to remind them they where perfect just the way they are. How she relied on them and loved them and gave them each a small massage with energy to help clear up their pathways. It wasn't a fighters preparation, but it was a lot more tender. Anyone watching would see her lineup, not that she was trying to hide them. Dream the Kirlia, Kindness the Petilil, and Hope the Miltank.
As the others came down and joined her, Star just smiled even brighter at them both. Flashing Alexia a wink as the two Knights joined her for breakfast, she paid them both plenty of attention as she had mostly finished eating already. Afterwards when the talks where done and the food was cleared, she smiled up at Alexia.Quietly she stood, making sure to smooth out her long robe after making sure her sigils where in place and she was good to go.
"The girls and I are ready. I'm always happy to provide instruction and time for you Alexia, but I admit the young woman inside of me is rather eager to explore the ruins I never could as a child. Shall we go or is there anything else we need to take care of first?"
~~~~~~~~~~ Inspired Training applied. Hope/Kindness gain 9 Experience.

Died in a glorious sea of flames? And she was okay with it? Well, wasn't that a fact for concern? It reminded him of when the Church of the Reaper was still very much active and thriving, with a fervor that put even the assassins' guild to shame. He would have to tread this very carefully - he'd seen her sort before (albeit not usually in the style of a pyromaniac) - and he didn't want accidentally give information too dangerous to her. "I see. My condolences about your loss anyways." Raoul remarked. "We'll see what I can do."He nodded over at Bab's comment before watching as she put down a certain image of a strange-looking creature that tickled something in his memory. He picked it up and looked at it closely, his eyebrows furrowing as he tried to remember which one this one.

Yep, the girl was a tad unhinged. It might do her some good if she got out and away from looking at torches and actually talked to people. That cemented Babs resolve. When the paper got laid out on the table Babs craned over to see what was on it, at first glance she was sure it was some type of Pokemon. Babs wracked her brain to see if she could remember it.

After a little bit of thought, it came to him. He knew exactly what the damn thing was given its big red frowning mug and overall menacing figure, plus the girl's own obsession with fire probably having her hunt down fire-themed legendaries or something helped narrow it down a lot.
"That's Groudon." Raoul said with a little awe. "One of the more dangerous and feared ones. It's a walking disaster area - it sleeps somewhere underground and only wakes up to eat and destroy before going back to its nap."
He looked at her in surprise and a little concern now. "And you want to find that one?"

Jioni smiled and nodded at the two, rising from the table and recalling his two faeries into their crystals. Honedge at his hip, he turned to leave.
"If we're all ready let's be off then."

Aleri nodded, "Yes yes yes! I must find it and learn from it about it's great power, legends say it can control the sun, I want to learn tricks like that." She seemed way to excited as she smiled at the pair, "Well come on lets go, time waits only so long." As soon as the others were ready Aleri would lead the way to Avesta
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Alexia smiled and stood to join Jioni and Star as Helia looked over before tugging on Berry's sleeve, "Should we go with them? They seem nice enough." Truthfully she would be fine either way, with more company or just remaining in Berry's party. Both would be adventuring together, eating together, sleeping.... she turned red again.

Oh that was concerning. Still, he'd keep his opinions to himself for the moment.
"Hold on. Are you alright if we got some more companions? A few people asked if they could join us for a while since they were headed the same way."

Yup, zubats in the belfry. Total nutso. When Babs heard Raoul say others wanted to join she sprung on the chance to not get a torch dumped on her in the middle of the night.
"Sounds good to me. Who'd you ask?"

Berry gave what Helia said the amount of thought it deserved; on one hand she wouldn’t mind travelling with the group either, but then she had the opportunity to get more of the adorable blushing knight if they travelled together and that was enough for Berry to grab her hand and give her a wide grin. “They do, but I’m curious, which one of us can get through those caves first? We can have our own adventure together through the depths!”

"I spoke with Princess Aluche last night and we decided that since we're going in the same direction it would be better to go together as a group." And most likely safer too, but he didn't mention that.

Aeleri stopped mid stride, "Oh, more friends, that sounds fun, the more the merrier and better, or something like that right?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Helia blushed again as Berry took her hand, "O..Okay." she said quietly as she smiled back, she was melting it would seem, or was that just Berry's Sunmoth? Either way the two made their way out.

Babs lit her pipe quickly and took a few quick puffs. Stretching her arms up above her head.
"Well, that's decided then innit? Where were we going to meet then?"

"Mhm. Let me just call them."
He took out his orb and got Aluche on the orb calling function.
"Princess Aluche, is the reception good on your end? If it is, we're good to go party-wise." He called out.

Aluche was just finishing up with training her three Pokemon(She had sent Erinna down to prepare a meal for breakfast that she knew for certain wasn't on the inn's menu to distract her) when her Crystal Guide began to flash and let out a chiming sound. She quickly returned Firis and Joe to their seals and took out the sphere. "Answer." As soon as she spoke, Raoul's face appeared on the surface of the orb. Aluche tried not to blush as memories of both Malvasia's prank in the hallway as well as the...risque dream sequence that Malvasia had thought up came flooding back to her.
"My other companions have agreed as well. Where shall we meet up?"

"Right outside of the inn your group is currently staying in." Raoul replied, doing his best to stamp down the urge to blush at the sight of her. "Would that suffice? I already know the way there anyway." While the same cannot be said for the reverse.

Aluche nods. "That should work just fine. I shall gather up my companions and be on my way there." Her stomach decides to chime in with a growl, causing her to turn red. "...After a quick bite to eat."
After Aluche said goodbye to Raoul, she left Erinna's room and hurried over to her own, and was thankful to find that Valerie and Aurora were still asleep, which meant she wouldn't have to answer any questions about where she had gone.

When Erinna arrived in the morning to help the princess dress, it was with a face glowing brighter than the sunrise. The idea that Aluche had slept with two other girls brought all of yesterday's memories back to the surface of her mind. Worse still, the other two noblewomen were both still asleep, Valerie hugging Aurora from behind like a Pokedoll. She found it hard to look Aluche in the eyes while applying her makeup, and was thankful when she was ordered away to find breakfast.
Now, Erinna had already eaten that morning, and so she knew exactly what the inn served. However, she had no intention of disappointing her princess, which meant it was time for an early morning trip to the market! On the way, she summoned Avaritia from wherever the Pokemon went when her seal wasn't active, and the two enjoyed the early morning sun together. In fact, it was with her Shiinotic's help that Erinna managed to find all the ingredients for the princess' breakfast. "Good job, Avaritia!" she told her Pokemon with a smile. "I don't know what I would have done without you."
After that, it was only a quick skip back to the inn, where she was able to negotiate for the use of the kitchen. Pleased with herself, she returned to the Princess' room with three plates of the requested breakfast in hand.

Aluche looked up from the book she was reading when Erinna walked in. "Thank you, Erinna. I apologize for the inconvenience." She looks over to the bed. "It would seem that Lady Aurora and Lady Valerie are still asleep."
