He followed it out of its hide away and just watched it tell its tale with the very earth itself, a tale of the legendary and its siblings stopping a hurricane from annihilating the population of Highhill Town by transforming into the entities from the mural when presented with a small object. By thinking of the context of story, Basil could infer that it was most likely the mirror that they've been using all this time. If it can open secret cave passages from impossibly durable material so why wouldn't it be the case that it couldn't transform these Pokemon too if it seems so closely tied to them? Landorus thrusted its tail into the map and from it flowers bloomed and then a plant burst out and bore a strange fruit that Basil had never seen before. The legendary Pokemon tossed one to him and another to Anise. What was he supposed to do with this? Lorette probably knew considering she was the one who sent him on this quest to begin with. [color=8882be]"Ah thank...you..."[/color] Wait, why was it stretching? Before he knew it, Landorus had left in a complete gust of speed out back into the world. There were many reactions to them encountering a mythical being such as that; one was awe, one was inspiration, and the other? Basil's legs gave out and he fell down on his knees with a thousand yard stare. That was probably the single most terrifying experience he ever had and now he released a being of unfathomable power upon the world. Whatever the case it was over. He heaved a great sigh of relief and stood back, placing the fruit in his bag, and then dusted his legs off. [color=8882be]"I'm fine, sorry about that. It's... it's been a long day."[/color] He smiled sheepishly at the other two. The young man glanced around the cave. It was definitely getting late and he was exhausted, but he just wanted to do one more thing before leaving the cave. [color=8882be]"Well, I'm going to go catch a Pokemon. I can find my way out so you both don't have to stay. We have a lot to talk about tomorrow anyway."[/color] Regardless of what they say, Basil was set on catching Pokemon; he did not want to trek through the cave again. Quick catch! Basil was quite interested in catching one of those Nosepass while they were making their way through the ruins. They looked like they were quite sturdy Pokemon and lord knows that he was missing a wall for his team. If he found one, he would use Crocus and just spam Vine Whip and Leech Seed because that was just a winning strategy at this point. Whether or not he catches a Nosepass, Basil was just done with the day. He would leave the cave and go to the local Pokemon Center, rent a bed, and just crash. It was his first day as a trainer, but it feel like a year.
