“Owwwww,” the teen moans as she reloads into the game. Why didn’t she set her pain level to reduced? This sucked. Shoving to her feet, she blinks around, wincing when she spots the Combusken and Audino doing the same. “I really need to upgrade that HP, huh?” She sighs, though all she receives are blank expressions in reply.
Oh yeah, don’t go all meta on the AI monsters. She really did have to remind herself of that far too often!

“Verai was nice, wasn’t he?” Saint hums, returning to the shrine. He’s in a better mood; the journey may have begun with a mud fight and some confusing NPC dialogue, but he’s just been taught how to befriend pokemon by a generous player, and Gumball made himself a new friend.
The popplio cheers, waving his flippers animatedly as he recounts their little adventure with charades. Saint chuckles as Gumball puts his flippers over his head, somehow curling his mouth into a perfect cat mouth. “Yes, Kitten was nice too. Maybe I could arrange a playdate for you when I see her trainer again.”
Gumball erupts into applause. It’s fast enough that Saint has to lean back, lest his nose get clapped into oblivion. Gumball is looking forward to the reunion, and maybe he’ll even meet this ‘Sprigatito’ fellow Kitten mentioned!

Noonlight Shrine really was the one in Asper that Taylor preferred to come to. She’d found herself more and more often healing here, rather than at Precipice Shrine; something about the gaping chasm of Precipice just feeling… unsettling.
Noonlight, in contrast, was oddly soothing. Palm pressed to the bark she closed her eyes, taking a deep breath and relishing in the feeling of health flowing through her body.

Tamara really needed to upgrade her tall grass HP. It was getting awfully old to need to heal so often, but she really did only have herself to blame. Without the help of other trainers, it would have been a real slog to take down the Duraludons she kept finding in the Steppes.
She was working towards purchasing a different upgrade for now, but as she stood with her palm pressed to the oddly warm wood, she made the decision - that would be what she bought next!

“Told you so…” Tam groaned, rising from the ground beneath the tree and casting an annoyed look in Imp’s direction. “We should have healed before that last attack; then we wouldn’t have whited out!”
The Impidimp grumbled, his actual words inaudible. Tamara figured she could probably guess a good amount of what he was saying…
She watched as the dual-type hobbled his way over to the shrine and knelt to pray for a moment. After a few beats of silence, he rose, moving much more fluidly back to where Tamara waited.
“All good?” She asked, and when he responded with a nod, she teleported them back to the encounter.

“God, you’re a feral little bugger when you want to be, aren’t you?” Tam remarked, walking towards the shrine with a struggling Imp in her arms.
<Lemme go!> He screeched. <I almost had her!>
“You absolutely did not,” the teen commented, keeping hold of the squirming gremlin without too much difficulty. He was pretty damn scrawny, after all. Resting a hand against the bark of the tree, she waited patiently for the healing to kick in. Well, much more patiently than Imp did, at least.

Kitten stared up at the tree. Moltres was tucked out of sight, but very much there. <.... I want to help Purrai,> She started, moving to sit on the massive boulder the tree grew from. <But I don't know how... Do his friends know? Tuesday? Or... or Kazuki? would they know what to do?>

Silvermoon was at the shrine. They did not look around the glade with wonder, or offer prayer and blessings up to the Moltres high in the trees. No, they simply sat, knees tucked close to their chest.
They had a lot of failings. One was caring too much, all the time. Another was wanting approval, desperately. Always wanting to be seen as good enough. And this- this recent string of events were certainly not making them seem good enough.

Today, Yuze has plans. Quite a lot of them, in fact. There are many things that have caught his attention in UNOVR, which means that there is much work to do... and it all begins here.
Here, with this shrine's blessing. Something that is much needed before he heads into the Surging Steppes.
"Thank you."
She had been raised religious and she might not believe in anything other than science, but she does know how to be respectful of such things. As a result, so does Yuze.

This visit to the shrine was more peaceful than the last. After the last fight with a Duraludon had taken three separate visits for healing, Tamara had decided that it would probably be wise to heal before a hunt, this time. Not that it would make much of a difference if they ran into another of the metal beasts and had to tackle it alone, but it couldn't hurt, right?
She sat with her back pressed to the tree now, breathing in the temperate afternoon air and taking a rare moment to relax. She normally never really stopped, always dashing about from one adventure to another, but it was nice now and then to take a second to just be.

Near the flames of Ascended Moltres, similar technicolour flames are left behind by the steps of the Beta Tester.
Domino walks closer to the shrine, watching the slumbering legend she had first seen hatch back at the manor. A lot has changed since then. Asper has changed. Will Moltres help them when they have to fight the corruption once again? Domino doubts it.
Will they be ready?
She sure hopes so, at least.

He takes a break. Saint is sitting under the shade of the Noonlight shrine, his back against the stone outcrop from which the holy tree wraps its roots over. Gumball is lounging in his lap, luxuriating in the moment of rest after an exciting battle. He blows bubbles, sending them floating up to pop gently on Saint’s face.
“Enjoying yourself?” Saint hums, watching the iridescent glow of the Ascended Moltres’ wings bounce off the little bubbles. For every one that pops, Gumball claps his flippers, delighted.

When they return to the shrine, Saint shudders, shaking his head. His Vulpix follows suit at the exact same time, trainer and pokemon having to snap themselves out of the shock of being unmade.
“I was too slow,” Saint says, his expression of remorse as he moves to pick up the little fox, who only lets out a soft sound, licking his cheek to try and comfort him. “It won’t happen again.” The idea of fleeing is tempting once more, but he thinks of that stubborn bastard being flattened on the plain and find himself unable to turn away, just as before.

Kitten was livid. <I had it on my own!!> She howled, furious.
Verai held her in his arms, despite her wiggling. "I know."
<I don't need your help!!!>
"I know, I'm not going to help."
<Put me down!!>

"Alright, Moltres, imma need you to hit me with some good vibes." Domino tells the sleeping legend, but of course, her words do not awaken her. Flames flicker iridescent, and beneath the giant tree that is the Noonlight shrine, Domino grins, hands on her hips.
"No worries, we can try again later. I believe in you."
