Chapter 5 Part 2
At that instant, the prospect of collapsing and permitting his body to turn to ash, blown away by the breeze like dust, seemed not as terrible as it had been at the beginning of the hellish periplus that the three of them had been going through. Behind his knees the fiery pang like the sun coursed through his nerves like a horrible infection. His heart throbbed as if it would burst out of his chest, arch his ribs outward, shatter his sternum and air-deprived lungs like deflated balloons. Sweat trickled…-

Migrations
Melrose could hardly get a wink of sleep. Once the sun started to peak over the horizon, she hopped out of bed and began packing everything she thought necessary– both for school and the trip to the capital. Any and all money she had saved up was tucked carefully in a pouch at the bottom of her new Treasure Bag, and there was no way she would be running short on apples for the road. Koa was already loading a cart with produce for the trip, and Gaius was helping him move crates and barrels in the back.…-

New Horizons
As the sun started to fall below the horizon, Xander’s consciousness returned to him for the second time in one day. He stretched his arms forward and lifted his rear, yawning loudly to himself before hopping off the bed. He could hear noises coming from downstairs: clanging pots and the murmur of voices. Not wanting to be a freeloader, Xander wandered downstairs to see if he could help with anything. Melrose watched patiently as her friend made his way down the steps head first. Each of Xander's…-

Moon Shadow
Gaius waited for Melrose and the Litten to hop off of his back before lowering his head down to the level of the little Pikachu. The Tropius gave her a stern look. "You shouldn't have run off like that, Mel. You could've gotten seriously injured. You're lucky Koa came and got me before it was too late." "I know, Papa." Melrose tucked her head down. "I'm sorry, sir…" "That being said," Gaius's expression eased. "Nightshade Grove isn't a dungeon fit for learning the basics. Don't be hard on yourself…-

Nightshade
The deep shade from the trees above created the perfect conditions for unconscious dozing off. Unfortunately, going from nothing, to a dull pressure behind the forehead, to a massive headache is usually enough to wake anybody from comatose. The drowsy newcomer to the murky Mystery Dungeon gripped onto his head with shaky paws; this was the worst migraine he'd ever had in his life, at least… that he could remember. As the Pokémon thought through his pain, he realized it was not just the only migraine he… -

Sunrise
The glittering dew drops on the farm grass felt refreshing against Melrose’s bare feet. Happy Apple Farm’s homely aroma, mixed with the morning sun on the Pikachu’s fur, brought her an innate sense of peace. She stretched out her body, touching her toes, saluting the sun, et cetera, before taking a deep breath. Now, she was fully ready to conquer her chores! “Shoulda been up sooner,” an aged Tropius called down to his daughter, who jumped at the sudden sound of his voice. Gaius was chuckling…-

Chapter 11 - The Irian Guild
Stone. Stone. And more stone. Hills and mountains of grey limestone as far as the eye could see, along grassy fields filled with erratics and boulders. These were the sights that greeted Arian as he, Elvira and Team Sandstream exited the Mystery Dungeon and into an area rather different than the undulating slopes of Rolling Hills. This was more mountainous, with the sight of the dominating Empyrean Mountains looming over the area. These were the Karstlands. It was an area of special conservation,…-
