"I'm... not sure about the ghosts. H-How about we think about those when, um, when we get to it?" Leanne answered.

Kylie shakes her head, slightly amused, but understands. "We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. But yeah, let's get going."

The two of you walk to the docks and are directed to a small cargo ferry that you are told will be heading to Burr Point and is willing to take passengers. You are greeted by a weathered man of middle years in a sun-bleached sweater.
"Hello there, I'm Captain Tules, I'm guessing the two of you need a lift to Burr Point?"

Leanne gave what may have been the smallest nod in the history of nods.
"Um, yes? Yes, that's the place. I think. What would be the price of that?"

"Burr Point? Er, yes. That is where we're trying to get to. I was going to ask how much, but my partner has beaten me to the punch." Kylie smiles at the man.

"500 a piece but if you two agree to help us unload the cargo it'll be free"

Leanne, in all of her 1.58m, did not look like someone particularly suited to carrying stuff.
"Um, I'm not sure how much help I'll be but... I can try?

Tules just laughs. "No problem little lady, theres plenty of smaller boxes we could use help with. If you two are good with the plan, you can follow me to your bunks and we can get under way in about an hour."

Kylie nods. "Free travel, even if it has some work involved, is probably for the best right now." She smiles and prepares to follow. "You going to be okay there, Leanne?"

Captain Tules shows the both of you to your bunks and you stash your belongings inside. The boat leaves right on time and the 5-hour journey is smooth. A flock of Wingull follows the boat and a pod of Wailord are seen in the distance, but little else disturbs the trip.
In seemingly no time the Lighthouse of Burr Point is spotted, standing proudly atop the high cliffs that frame the rocky beach. The boat pulls up to the old stone docks at the base of the cliff as a small fog begins to roll in. You both exit the ferry and help unload the lighter cargo, mostly boxes of poke balls and basic medicine, and load them onto a small flatbed waiting on the docks. With that done, Captain Tules waves as his crew shove off. The truck driver turns to you both:
"You ladies want a ride up to town?"

Kylie looks to her companion. "I'd say yes if you can get us to the gym. Otherwise, I'd prefer to explore on foot. It's been a while since I got to stretch my legs."

"I mean... um... I'm not going to say no but also, are we challenging the gym straight away?" Leanne asked a bit nervously.
"Shouldn't we like... train a bit?"

"I just want to know where it is and maybe get an idea what we're looking at doing once inside." Kylie answers. "I agree we should train more first."

"Okay, that makes sense" Leanne said. "So I think dropping us at the gym would work. Thank you kindly"

"Alright then, climb in back ladies." Once you're situated, the truck pulls away with a rumble and drives up the long switchback path to eventually end up on the top of the cliff. A short drive through the pines later, has the truck come out into a large clearing with the town at the center. To the left, and a little out of town, is the Lighthouse and that is where the truck is headed.
The truck stops in front of the lighthouse and you get a good look at it. Its made of old weather beaten field stones and the area in front of it is nothing more than hard packed dirt. A warm light shines from the keeper's house.

Leanne looks at the lighthouse in confusion.
"The gym is a... phare? That is unexpected"

"The lighthouse? Really? Yeah, unexpected. I hope we won't be fighting IN the lighthouse..." Kylie shakes her head.

Leanne took a couple short looks around.
"So um, want to look around a little? I-I mean, if you don't want to that's fine too but I just thought it'd be nice to get to know the town. Since we're not going for the gym right now and all"
