[h3][i]Lobby, Pokemon Center, Grand Glory City[/i][/h3][/center]

A hot shower....a thing that had been rather soothing for the body and the mind in this case. She couldn't feel the sensation of eyes staring at her, couldn't hear or see lips whispering about her, nor frankly had she lost control of her powers such as to hear the thoughts of others at that. Likewise she'd return to pick up her clothes from the laundry while returning, fresh and clean and frankly another relief to her mind at this venture. Though she had to admit that the unexpected appearance of Amelia had led to some conversation, which was in hindsight something to get her mind more off her herself in the moment really, albeit she'd gotten to share the story of the past few-...hours, maybe? Something of the sort. Likewise it seemed Amelia hadn't been in a totally boring state of affairs either for that matter. 

Yet returning to the front counter of the Pokemon center with the smaller girl in tow, now dressed in cleaned clothes and with her things back in order, the psychic would happily go to retrive her Pokemon back from Nurse Joy. Albeit she would do so with a touch of further and earnest apologizing for...er...the stink. Beyond that she would let the matter go with a bit of practiced, focused breathing for a moment. That all being noted, however, knowing her Pokemon were back in good condition was certianly a thing that put her mind at ease after the prior adventure they'd been through. Scrapper had been in the worst shape, Sir Lopsalot had been hanging on by a thin margin, and the rest had been a mess in one way or another.

She'd likewise visit the PCs, transferring some of her captured Pokemon to the Professor in the meantime and hoping he'd gotten her now clear video and apology text. Yet from here it would be a simple enough matter to look over and see Nils talking with the same pink-jacket boy she'd thought back to when Amelia had mentioned this "Valerian" she'd run into out there. Another one of the trainers from the Professor's lab, yes, she recognized him well enough now in that respect at least. Albeit he'd seemingly made a mess of things for the smaller girl....but she'd take Amelia's word that he was a good person at heart and so forth. Not that the Professor seemed the type to bring on sketchy people as trainers either. 

Afterwards, though, Clarissa would glance about breifly once more, and then she would in kind turn again to Nurse Joy and ask a question as a certain sign in the center caught her attention.

[color=violet]"Ah, if I may ask, what is a Move Tutor? And do you know more about when they'll be back?"[/color]

...Look, you didn't grow up in a place with the most scare amount of Pokemon seemingly in the world without needing to ask some questions. She didn't want to sound stupid, but she was still new to things and hadn't read up on perfectly everything about being a trainer ahead of time. She was just one girl! Albeit it seemed like a good thing to know for the road if nothing else. 

If or whenever she'd get her answer from the attending Nurse, she hoped, the psychic would then move to approach the two boys with an attempt at a casual wave to say 'hi' before making it too close to them. 

[color=violet]"I think we're mostly ready to get some supplies and such before we hit the road, unless we wish to check out another part of the city or such before doing so as well,"[/color] she said to Nils, with a side glance at Amelia out of concern in case the other girl didn't feel like such yet or had other business before they hit the road as well, before looking over to Valerian after a moment of silence, [color=violet]"Ah, you're from the Professor's Lab earlier as well, yes? A pleasure to meet you again. Will you be coming along with us?"[/color]

She'd extend a hand to shake, if this Valerian felt so inclined to accept it, as a polite greeting and goodwill gesture. Or at least she intended it that way if nothing else. 

Earlier Clarissa had indeed tried to go and ask others to group up and travel, but only Amelia had seemingly responded at first before Nils had joined in and they'd gone outside for their first Pokemon battle. Some had just blitzed out of the lab as if their lives depended on it, or had jumped ship to get out there in haste such that she hadn't the chance to ask....not that she blamed them either, even if it had all been a bit discouraging internally for herself in the heat of the moment. Still, safety in groups was a good thing overall, right? Right.

[*]Pictures Of The Strange Mural From Hidden Cavern (Under the Grand Glory City Sewers) - [quote]And now everything had come to a still. It was funny, after an intense battle the only thing that was left was the peaceful sound of silence. As they went to pick up their Pokeballs, there was something that they had not noticed that under any other circumstances they should have been aware of as soon as they entered this chamber were not for the fact that they were on a rescue mission: there was a mural of the region of Evig painted on one of the walls though it was incomplete, the entire southern region and parts the western landmass were simply not there 

There were several things odd about it, but what was odd were the symbols on them: a flower near Florasong, a sundial near Starbor, and a crown in the Jormun Trench. 

Yes, many things to ponder about...[/quote]

An ethereal glow hung in air literally lighting the enclosed space of red rock with a blueish hue. There was an energy about it, something that resonated through the air though what it was was hard to say. It was a vast network of tunnels, an eerily quiet space where even the slightest sound bounced off the walls. There was no doubt that this place had not been touched by human hands, if it was even known by the inhabitants of the city above. A fragment of another time from long ago, isolated and forgotten. 

However, those who found themselves in this strange network of tunnels would quickly find that they were not alone. As expected of a place located deep underground, there were a litany of Pokemon that made their homes here. Armored little creatures scuttled around, looking for iron ore and other bits of metallic minerals they can get their mouths on.[/quote]

Going for her Rotom Phone, Clarissa would have it film the appearaance of the place and the Pokemon she could see there, including a proper look back at the tunnel that had led her there. Then she had the camera turn to herself for a moment, then, speaking clearly for the camera and gesturing to the lighting and features. 

[color=violet]"This cave system seems to sit underneath the Grand Glory Sewers, which might explain the presence of Aron down here eating at the pipework in the sewers above. I came down here through a tunnel the Pokemon here dug up at an angle into the sewer system, with them seeking more food I believe, while seeking whatever Pokemon is making the crying noise people have heard down here before. I don't know how far the tunnels go, or if there are more connections to the sewers, but....this place is...beautiful, I believe, in its own way."[/color]

Untouched by human hands, thriving with life of its own, and yet part of her felt enthralled to simply look about the underground cavern of sorts.

Still, before she ended the video, Clarissa looked back at the camera of her Rotom Phone again. 

[color=violet]"And Nils, if you are watching this, I'm sending this to let you know it's seeminglly safe to come down as well if you wish. But we might need to eventually go back for some potions and other supplies if this place goes deep enough. I'm heading deeper in to explore in the meantime. I'll try to keep in touch."[/color]
