Bryant waved to his companions and moved to sit down on the grass to the side of Sawyl. He stretched his arms and laid down, one knee folded and another stretched with his hands resting behind his head.
"Hey there! No major problems on our end, though I get the feeling the Elekid I caught will be a troublemaker... I'll have to teach him his place in the team, I guess" he said with a heavy sigh. "We'll have him trained in no time" he added, letting Alessa crawl up on his chest and scratching to the sides of her axe-like ridge. The Axew made a content sound in return.

Egon finally poked his head out of the woods as well. Finding the pokémon had been easy, but then he ended up distracted by a few rare plants, and then another just a few steps away... by the time he had fully satisfied his curiosity, he was the last to rejoin the group. He offered the others a sheepish smile while scratching the back of his head "..uh.. hi all. Everyone is done already?"

Oswald coughed politely to get the newly arrived and waiting people's attention. "The Knights have asked me to check on your current progress with the task you were given. How many have succeeded? I would like to know so that I may report back quickly."

"I have one. Wouldn't mind a chance to find another, but I suppose it's getting rather late." Sawyl looks up at the sky airily, despite the fact that he's conspicuously avoiding having to say or show just what he's caught.

"I caught a pokemon as well. A nice, peaceful Abra!" Rinka responds happily, quickly waving to Egon. "And yeah, I kind of agree with Sawyl. This WAS a test of sorts, so we should at least show the Knights that we've succeeded in our task. We can catch more allies another time."

Bryant waved the knight off.
"Yeah, heavy, I caught an Elekid alright and Qull caught a Shuppet. Mine's a bit of a jerk so I might need to work on his attitude later. Let's go report, why don't we?"

Oswald registers that each of you have captured a Pokémon. "Impressive. I didn't expect for all of you to make a capture this quickly. I will report to the Knights as they are currently still in a meeting. I will be back as quickly as possible, lords and ladies." Oswald leaves quickly.

Waiting on Oswald gives Sawyl... entirely too much time to think about what's happened.
Oh, Kyogre's teeth, what am I going to say when I have to actually explain what I caught? Sure, everybody says it's not the Pokémon that matters, but that doesn't mean he's not going to be seen having caught a Magikarp with a shriveled fin in front of everyone. And even if the Knights are understanding about it - at least to his face - he's still going to sit here with the other apprentices having caught Pokémon that don't need to be babied.
What was it I was thinking, the Dragon King of all the rivers? Yeah, we'll go with that. Outcast for his disability, but with the potential power in his blood just waiting for the right trainer to bring it out. I suppose I'll need to find a title for Davy, too, though, or he'll get jealous.

The long silence was beginning to be uncomfortable. Perhaps it was because the others had only met each other recently? Maybe a bit of an icebreaker would be helpful. "So then, while we're waiting, what was it that led you all to want to become knights, if you don't mind me asking?" It seemed like a simple enough question. Even if they did have very basic reasons, it was the one thing they all definitely had in common; a desire to become knights. "I myself was told tons of stories about them when I was younger, and how they help to keep everyone safe and happy. I wanted to be like that, making this country a better place for people and Pokemon, so everyone can live together peacefully!" Rinka smiles as he pets Calibur's head, who happily relaxes in his satchel.

Bryant scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
"The truth is, I didn't even know I was being considered to become a knight. It came completely by surprise. I hadn't even showed any signs of magic until around a year ago" he admitted. "I'm mostly trying to make my family proud, and do my best to live up to everyone's expectations"

Oh, good, a distraction. Sawyl grins.
"Well, as it happens, being the son of the Pirate King gets one talked about. My lady Gloria Aurora had heard of my skill with a blade and with leading men and decided no other candidate would do." He waves a hand carelessly. "Of course, my father wouldn't have any of it. He'd intended me to be his successor, and to take over the Walrein one day. Having a naval battle fought over one is quite exciting..."
Unless somebody stops him, Sawyl is entirely prepared to launch into a much-embellished account of a pitched battle on the high seas, with its only apparent object being that the winner got him. Anyone who pays much attention to news of the nation as a whole might very well realize that Sawyl's story of how he was selected bears only a passing resemblance to the truth - Gloria Aurora did deal a crushing defeat to Captain Bellamy Morgan, the self-styled "Pirate King", about a year ago but it was more about the piracy than having a talented son.
