As Erika approached, the chilly evening air was a fresh reminder of home and even though it was nearly a welcomed sensation, it was still cold for being in shorts! Thankfully, Erika was prepared and had tucked away some sweatpants for this exact situation. She quickly slipped them on and with her legs now covered and warm, she proceeded.

Erika had managed to catch up to Joshua but Ewan was no where in sight. [color=6ecff6]"Hey Joshua and Pikachu! I did promise to help you get an Ice-Type so here I am! But yea... it'll be nice to around familiar stuff again."[/color] Erika said, glancing up at the mountain. Despite already having an Ice-Type, she wouldn't mind having another one because if there was one thing she knew the most about Pokemon, it was Ice-Types. Speaking of...

Erika hadn't shaken the thought of acquiring a Dawn Stone for the simple fact of having Sno become a Froslass. It was her favorite Pokemon growing up since it was the main character in a childhood book of hers as well as Froslass having a certain mystique. Ghost and Ice. As far as Erika knew, Froslass was the only one like that. That was only one the reasons as Erika took a glance over to Joshua's Pikachu who was happily free roaming. It was with a bit of envy that Erika wanted to do that with Sno, too, but seeing as she was quite heavy and a bit sluggish as a Snorunt, she couldn't do it. With a Froslass, though, she definitely could float around.

[color=6ecff6]"Hmm... I wonder what we will find in there. Even I don't know too much about it..."[/color] Erika said, leading on into the cave. 

The smaller cavern eventually opened up to a massive chamber that was a sight to behold. The red hues from the setting sun crept in over the top and despite the decreasing light, the cavern had such a unique brilliance. It reminded Erika a lot of Cooldome in the evening as it had a similar effect. It wasn't just the ice or the size that was impressive but this wasn't just some desolate cave, there was activity everywhere. People working to dig items out of the ice but nothing quite as surprising the Wailord still visible in the ice, frozen in time. It was a bit sad to see such a Pokemon stuck and nobody making an attempt to unfreeze. But despite Erika's distaste, she was much to shy to bring up the point and become active about the issue.

Proceeding onward, it wasn't long before they were greeted by a cavern inhabitant. Delibird, another favorite of Erika's, had approached and offered them all a gift. [color=6ecff6]"Thanks so much Delibird!"[/color] Erika said, patting the Santa-like Pokemon on the lightly before tucking the Aspear Berry away in her bag. 

Erika followed Joshua in a bit as he inspected, mirroring his wandering gaze as well. However it dawned on Erika that the two of them might have conflicted goals in here as Erika focused in on the mining services. [color=6ecff6]"Um... I think I'm going to check around to see what the miners have been digging up. If you wanted to try and capture an Ice Type, I can't picture a better place than some of these caverns. Who knows which ones are hanging around, though?"[/color] Erika shrugged, [color=6ecff6]"But if you wanted to go off and try to catch on, I don't want to keep you. I'll probably be somewhere around here."[/color] Erika offered as she turned and proceeded onward.

She needed information, exactly what was being unfrozen in these caverns could be anyone's guess but it seemed even Pokemon were possible. To get a better idea of her chances, she needed to ask around but also check the more official places. As she made her way to the larger collection of buildings and miners, she'd start asking around about what people have found in the ice before. With almost every person, she'd ask if they know if Dawn Stones could be found and sometimes ask what Pokemon have been found. Slowly but surely, Erika would drift towards the Miner's Shop to quickly check to see what they had in inventory, again ask about Dawn Stones, before finally setting upon the Miner's Base to start collecting information there. She might even trying mining herself.

2. Talk. As Erika navigates around the camp, ask what people have found in the ice. Slyly bring up dawn stones.
6.1. Miner’s Base. Investigate how to mine and such
6.2. Miner’s Shop. Just to check what is in stock
