Fateen smiled at both of them and motioned for them to come around the corner and enter her home. She took a long look around to make sure that there weren't any Cipher peons watching the trainers who had entered her home. The peons normally avoided her home. They knew that if they messed with her, the citizens of Pyrite would most likely cause trouble for them. Little but annoying problems would pop up for them. As she came around the corner she saw two unfamiliar trainers and a rather unruly trainer native to Pyrite named Cali approach her home. She let out a deep sigh as Cali knocked on her door with a good amount of force.

She silently stared at him for a moment, then walked over and slapped him upside the head. "What have I told you about calling me an Old Hag?!" She demanded as she opened the door and led them inside. She then turned to Cali again, this time her face filled with worry and a good amount of anger. "What is wrong with you, Cali?! You know Cipher could be listening for any mention of the Old Man and yet you still go shooting off your mouth. There's a reason we're trying to make sure there are no mentions of him." She said as she shook her head. She turned to the other trainers and smiled politely.

"Welcome. I am Fateen. I am known as the Mother of Pyrite Town. Before you all lay down to rest, let me ask each of you something: What are Pokemon to you?" Friends? Allies? Means to an end? Or tools? Tell me of your experiences with your Pokemon." She said as she sat down behind her Crystal ball.
