Golden Forests
A caravan of various mons and carts with boxes marches to the settlement of Phoenix Landing to the north, where [Her Perch] is located. The caravan itself is led by a Ursaring couple; behind then three carts follow, one carrying some food and materials for the youth to have and share while they're there and the other two, heavily custodied, carry a large [box] custodied one by an Espeon and the other by an Umbreon. An escort group comprised of Nidos, Noctowls and Ledybas surround the caravan and march alongside it. The Nidorino and Nidorina walk in double columns at each side of the caravan, the Noctowl fly both ahead and behind (but not ahead the lead Ursaring couple) and the Ledyba fly and move around more or less freely. Tailing the caravan there are four mons: Fey the Gengar♀, a Floatzel mother, and two Raticate.
Accompanying the main caravan there is a group of various mons including Buizel, Loudred, Butterfree and Stantler, as well as some Nidos and Rattata. Maekrite and Silentran♂ are also marching by the side.
Maekrite -frowns: <We are going a bit slow... Hopefully we don't arrive too late for the opening ceremony.>
Silentran♂ -pokes the Nidorino: <We're fine. So you approve of the idea to reconnect the Golden Forests to PEFE Island or not?>
The Nidorino shakes his head and snorts to show hesitation. He remembers that among the boxes the caravan from PEFE Island brought to the forest there was the Portal Gun they fetched back from the facilities.
Maekrite: <You sure there won't be any issues with it? I was thinking it could cause some imbalance.>
Silentran♂: <Itt's there to provide a better resistance. You heard the leaders talking about that evil empire to the west and their attempts to conquer the region. I don't want another Scolemis happening, much less this close to home.> -- frowns.
Maekrite -looks around him: <Well, the ability to trade with PEFE island easily for supplies will surely be welcome. And the Nidos can still use some of the armors that have remained.> -- thinks for a moment -- <We'll see how it goes. If it helps keeping stability against Bluescale's attacks, it might help against the Empire as well. But it still makes me itch.>
Silentran♂: <Hey, it makes me itch too, but it's better than the alternative. I mean think back to what this timeline means>
The Nidorino lowers his head.
Maekrite: <Point.>
After reaching the top of a hill the base of the Bell Tower can be seen in the distance. This is met with exclamations of joy from the caravan and with the kits of various species running ahead - forcing their parents to try to call them back to order, of course.
