Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Void

Do people still post here, or is that old news?

Table of Monsters

I finally make it back to Trey, who was outside of the building, itself, and before I could say anything, Backstabs appears behind me and adds "The black smoke dragons," I turn around, and ask "Huh? What are you talking about?" Backstabs then elaborates "The ones who would steal that pearl dragon's egg... the black smoke dragons. Most of them don't get involved in what these dragons think are politics, but the ones that do hate the 'pearl' dragons, which could just be any dragon that looks almost silvery white, with either an off-white, cream, or light grey underbelly. Oh, and, one way to tell dragon eggs apart from any other egg is the fact that they come in colors depending on what kind of dragon will hatch from it," I give her a confused look, and ask her "How... did you figure all of this out?" She responded simply with "I asked a few questions, and once they kicked me out, I listened in on their conversations, anyways," I simply turned back to face Trey, and said "Alright... would you mind telling the others about all of this? You know... there are dragons called the 'black smoke dragons' that might have the egg... the egg should be a silver or white color... and that there might be a little more to this than we think," I then headed back into the bar, just because I knew I wouldn't get lost this way, and repeated everything Backstabs told me to Deravan just so we'd all be on the same page, at least, we will be after Trey delivers his information to the rest of them. Even if kobolds were recently allowed to live here, I couldn't help but feel like I wasn't welcome here at this bar... I could only imagine how much worse Deravan feels about this place, given that trolls are considered snacks for dragons, or, at least, they used to be.

Table of Monsters

I start following Deravan all the way to some bar, where monsters of basically every type were gathering around the tables, and getting drunk off of dragon-brewed alcohol. The place smelled horrible, and the all-marble structure meant that this was originally built by humans, and made into a bar by dragons. The wooden tables had several burn marks in them, and a few had pieces missing, as well, but the counter was both made of grey stone, and burn-free. Backstabs, who had earlier agreed to keep an eye open, almost seemed to disappear into the crowd, and, looking around, I couldn't find Deravan, either. I just walk through the crowd to get to the counter, where a green-scaled dragon shows up to serve me something. "What'll ya have, lizard?" ignoring his comment, I decide to ask "So... have you seen anyone leave their egg behind? It was during my match against that red dragon, got any info?" the dragon chuckled, and said "Boy, I get a lotta eggs that airheads leave behind for one reason or another, you gotta be more specific," I then respond with "A white dragon, worrywart, soon-to-be mother... probably has some sort of light-based breath..." the dragon looked around the place, as if to make sure someone wasn't watching, and whispers "Yeah, I saw her egg... someone left with it a while ago... couldn't tell who they were, but, I do know this, there are a lot of dragons that want her and her child dead... some sort of... let's call it 'political debate', yeah... that works... just be careful sticking your nose where it doesn't belong, do you hear me?" I nod, and look for my teammates so I could tell them what I just heard, and have Trey repeat that to the others.

Sorry... I didn't realize that you already posted... WHOOPS.

Wait, isn't Blue supposed to post, 'cause monsters go first?

There's always a spot for a newcomer.

The mystery girl got back up after Erion and I healed her, and, almost the moment after she thanked us, a swarm of batlike monsters appeared. They seemed to be trying to tell us to leave for some reason, that we weren't welcome here. That seemed... odd, given that they probably didn't live around here, either. At first, I thought they might be mad at us for some reason or another, but the tone of their voice told me otherwise... they were warning us, not mad... but... warning us about what, exactly? At first, I thought about talking to them, but, I figured that they'd just repeat everything until I found some other way of calming them down. This might have been a dumb idea, but I tried to heal one of the bats that was fighting me, just due to the calming effect healing magic typically has on monsters. If the bat calmed down after that, I figured that I'd ask them what, exactly, they were doing up here in the middle of the day... after all, these monsters were usually only awake at night. It seemed like everyone else in the group had at least one bat to deal with and each bat seemed to be saying the same thing. I could only guess that Mettaton would try to kill the bat, but... as for the rest, I had no idea. From the short time I was on the surface, I did figure out that humans typically saw bats as either dangerous (somehow), or disgusting which means that Erion and the mystery girl might attack, as well. Oddly, there was also a bat fluttering near a tree talking to someone. There wasn't anyone there, though, at least, not to my knowledge, so, maybe that bat monster just went crazy. Wouldn't surprise me.

It seemed like the consensus was that we'd have to split up to find the egg, and with technology and magic where they were at the moment, we might have trouble actually communicating with one another... unless... "Splitting up sounds like a good idea, but... we're going to split into two groups, one of three and of two, and Trey, I almost hate to ask, but, could you be our line between the two groups? I've heard that humans used unintelligent birds to carry messages to each other, and, because you're actually smart, we won't even have to write a letter. Sure, it won't be instant, but it would be a lot better than anyone else doing this... especially me," I then think about who should go where, and figured that with my directional skills, it might be best if I'm NOT the one who's wandering around town, as I'd likely end up somewhere back in Birchvale, somehow. Of course, this also meant that I'd be following someone instead of leading them, and, honestly, I have no idea why my teammates think I can lead them anywhere. "I... guess we'll split up like this: Deravan, Backstabs and I will head to the bar while Miles and Dorisma will wander around town. Obviously, Trey will be the messenger. If you want to signal Trey, Miles, you'll have to throw one of your daggers upwards, where he can see it... he'll start off following us into the bar, so he knows where it is, and where Deravan and I will be. Once we find anything, we'll regroup here, in the arena. Sound good?" I then waited for what everyone's reaction would be to my plan, though, it seems like this plan bored the dragon who changed his friend into a statue, as he seems to have wandered off during my explanation.

So, I think we're waiting for the GM to post, right?

Overtale

Well... of course he would.
