AUGUST 2025 EVENT LOG


⋆✩ THE FIRST TRUE EXPEDITION ✩⋆



The Guildleader’s announcement comes off the excitement of yet another round of mysterious new arrivals floundering their way into society. It comes not long after a fresh round of beach parties and campfires, announced simply by notices posted to the Quest Board concerning a vital announcement to be made at the Archive’s steps. Within the first week of the month, that announcement has been made.

It’s time to expand their borders. It’s time to break through the unknown.

It’s time, the Guilds agree, for an Expedition.

OFF TO A NEW FRONTIER )

[AUDIO] - The Clinic

[Emporio holds his pearl with care, making sure not to project much of a video image. The mental audio is best here he thinks, if at least because of what he's 'talking' about.

...

With difficulty, but he's trying to keep those feelings out of the transmission as well.
]

Everyone- Uh. I need you to know that Guildmaster Ribombee brought Firepaw in today. ...He found him outside his office door, with a report in his jaws.

...Firepaw was. ...Was working really hard the last little while. He was down here so many times that Anasui and I had to pull him out more than once to try and get him to sleep, but.

[Distantly, one might actually make out the sounds of the Espartha cursing. Anyone who actually knows the bird can tell that he's upset.

But not in an 'angry' way.

Emporio presses on.
]

...I'd say I'd hope he can get some rest for a bit now, but after what happened to A.B.A...

...Well. We'll all be taking turns looking after him with the others. But please. Just... ...Look after yourselves too. Don't push it.

[The connection ends.]

[Closed] Quest: Play Nice

Who: Noelle & Shoka
What: Looking for Pokemon to recruit
Where: The Middle Forest
When: Mid/Late August
Warnings: Pokemon battling (violence/injury), likely references to death and disassociation

Come follow me into the dark
[It's Noelle's first trip into the Middle Forest, and she can't imagine how horrible it was before the fog receded. Even now, a light haze blocks most sunlight and she keeps tripping over bones that litter the ground. Every time she comes across one, she can't help but freeze in terror, stopping their progress completely.

Be brave, she keeps telling herself. Shoka is with you. But there's a sense of unease that won't go away, a perpetual chill that tells her she's making another mistake.

It's Noelle's first trip into the Middle Forest, but she doesn't feel like it is. Logically, she knows she's never been here. But in her heart, she feels as if she's ventured into the dark unknown beyond the boundaries of her 'normal' world once and never been the same for it.

After almost tripping off a cliff, Noelle opts to stay close to Shoka. How funny of her to cling to something arguably more scary than a little fog and old bones. But Shoka is... the good kind of scary.
]

S-sorry if I'm slowing you down. This must be nothing to you, fahaha...

[... It's Noelle's first trip into the Middle Forest, and she's glad she's not alone.]

[VIDEO] Ren announces his return

[Having settled in again with the help of Akechi and his friends in the Oran Berries, Ren figures it's time to make a proper announcement- he doesn't just have friends in the Oran Berries, after all, so, having settled in his room, he fishes out his Grumpearl, and opens a connection.

The video opens with him grinning, trying to look collected. He does look a little weak still, though.]


Hi everyone. Guess who's back? [His grins widens a little.] Didn't think I'd be that easy to get rid of, did you?

[He chuckles. It's a bad joke, but he's trying.]

I guess I overdid it a little, so I'll try to take it easy for a bit," [he says, like a liar.] "Akechi's been fretting over me like a mother bird, so not like I have much of a choice, hehe.

[He pauses, face falling a little, before speaking again.]

Still, if you visited me while I was out... thanks. I wasn't really all there, but I appreciate it. Really." [He tries to smile again.] "Tell me so I can properly thank you in person, okay? Sorry I worried everyone. Don't do that again- message loud and clear!

[He forces an upbeat tone, but he really does feel bad.]

Uh, anyway. Glad to be back. I can't wait to get back to doing missions with everyone! I hope to see you soon.

[LOG] Early August

Who: Ren Amamiya and YOU!! (and Goro Akechi)
What: General interactions post-coma
Where: The Oran Berries Guild, Grumpearl network video, the Pokeclinic
When: Early August
Warnings: Discussion of illness/injury/disability, medical stuff in general, implied medical trauma. More TBA as needed.

Having been out for all of July thanks to succumbing to the mystery illness that has been plagueing Bottlecap Bay for a while now, Ren's still regaining his bearings. He's a little mad at himself for letting it get this bad- and for making everyone worry. That's the last thing he wanted. Still, he's eager to catch up on what he missed, and to start doing missions again... but he's still under doctor's orders to take it easy.
