Anise stood and stared at him as he started explaining himself, crossing her arms as she did. Froakie stood next to her, saw how she stood, and also crossed his arms next to her. And then…

[color=e04f4f]‘I think you’re worrying yourself too much,’[/color] she stated. [color=e04f4f]‘And if that’s too shallow an answer for you…’[/color] she closed her eyes to think a little first.

[color=e04f4f]‘I don’t see you turning out like him. Granted, I can’t see anyone ending up like him, but still. Despite your bleak outlook, you’ve broken out of your cage and challenged this world. You’ve given yourself a choice, and you’re fighting for it. I’d say you deserve to be a little selfish. If you being “selfish” is just you being nice to people, then who cares, really? As for the being put into danger part…’[/color] She smirked the slightest.

[color=e04f4f]‘Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think your Pokémon are alright with being put in danger for you. They want to grow stronger, too. If you’re really seeking affirmation, then I think you should ask them. If your Pokémon approves, then what can you be doing wrong?’[/color] she said, shrugging.

[color=e04f4f]‘That, and had you actually intruded on me and the Breloom, I’d have been mad. That was my scene to prove myself in,’[/color] she continued.

Perhaps once upon a time people had a settlement here. Regardless, it was a long time ago and now nature had reclaimed this place many times over. A pathway can be taken past ancient rocks, but here stands even more ancient trees. Like in Stillwood Village, the trees cover up the overhead so little light comes through, but there is enough light to see. The place is thick with trees, ruins, moss and rocks. Navigating can be a challenge, but fortunately the forest here is not particularly deep. However, the inexperienced would be advised against trying to engage any of the Pokémon around here… and to perhaps bring a gas-mask, because the air is so thick with pollen that some people might have trouble breathing.[/hider]

[hider=Suggestions to actions]1. Search the area. [i]Maybe find a Pokémon that isn’t immediately obvious, look for items or inspect the ruins for interesting things?[/i]
2. Train Pokémon. [i]Just be aware that most things here can probably eat you alive.[/i]
3. Specify. [i]If you specify what you want to do, the GM will take it into account and tell the result.[/i]
4. Trigger random event. [i]Force the GM to use his imagination to make a scenario for you.[/i]
5. Archie. [i]The Gym Leader of Stillwood Village is somewhere in the forest.[/i]
6. Area Specific: Last Area. [i]This ancient forest isn’t particularly deep. You could get to the end in moments if you ignore everything else. Question is, what’s there?[/i][/hider]
