Why did he become an adventurer? [color=888B8D]"Well, if I'm being honest, it was mostly for the guild. I guess I just wanted a place to call home. Dunescar... isn't a very nice place, and I couldn't see myself living in Wude. The pokemon there seemed too prideful and everything there was about strength or contests. But when I heard about Songstream Hall, it sounded much better than where I was, so I made my way here. And besides, helping people sounds nice. It's much better than the other alternatives I had."[/color] Ting's pace picked back up as they progressed, following Fio, his metal feet making tapping sounds as they hit the road. [color=888B8D]"It took me a long time to get here, but I'm glad I made it. I don't think I would have survived if I had stayed up north. This place is much nicer."[/color] Ting's eyes looked up, spotting the gate out of town. Hopefully Gale would be waiting for them there. [color=888B8D]"Hey, look! It's the gate, we're almost there. If Gale is there, hopefully we can start moving out. And maybe he'll tell us about his fortune. I hope is was a good one like yours. Maybe I should get mine told sometime."[/color] Ting continued looking up towards the gate as they grew closer before finally arriving.[hr] [right]Interacting with/Mentioning: [@The Irish Tree](Fio)[/right]
