Valerian walked with the group, one hand thoughtfully resting near his chin as the ruins unfolded around them. His steps slowed as slabs peeled themselves from the walls, revealing dark ghostly forms drifting silently through the still air. [color=pink]“How quaint,”[/color] he murmured. [color=pink]“We’ve barely arrived and the ruins are already trying to make contact.”[/color]

The Yamask drifted toward Amelia. Valerian’s eyes narrowed, his posture shifting subtly. [color=pink]“Well, look at that. You seem to have a fan club,”[/color] he said quietly to Amelia. [color=pink]“That’s either very good… or very bad.”[/color]

He released Umbriel from his Poké Ball, the Mimikyu appearing in a brief flash of light. [color=pink]“You should feel right at home here,”[/color] Valerian added. [color=pink]“And you can protect us if something goes wrong.”[/color] It was his first time sending Umbriel out of the ball, and he quietly hoped that the Mimikyu would behave.

Umbriel tilted its head, then let out a quiet, amused hum. Like it had just spotted something very fun to mess with later.

Then came the black walls. They were smooth, obsidian-like, impossibly reflective. Valerian came to a full stop, staring at them. First things first. He took a moment to fix his hair, admiring his reflection. What better time for a mirror check than in ancient ruins? [color=pink]“I’ve seen royal mirrors that don’t shine like this.”[/color]

Then two people emerged. One looked as though he’d stepped straight out of a Pokéstar Studios western; the other could have fronted a grunge band in her sleep. They knew Vivian, which made them allies by association—but Valerian didn’t care for the way Sabine spoke to Frankie. He gave a faint, unimpressed huff. [color=pink]“Hmph. I didn’t realize greeting one another with insults was the norm,”[/color] he muttered. [color=pink]“My etiquette must be out of date.”[/color]
