WEEK 3.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 3 As the second week draws to a close, two more have joined the deceased. Christo and Alani are dead, leaving twenty-six of you remaining. It may not seem like very many have died, but their absence will certainly be felt. Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; on Sunday morning the clock chimes as it always has, but at least there are no bodies to find today. It seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... Just like last week, a door in the stairwell has opened, leading you down further into the building; there are more rooms open to you down there - possibly even one that you'll find personally interesting. Go ahead and explore all you like; after all, you did well at completing your lessons this past week. APPRENTICES REMAINING: 26 APPRENTICES REMAINING: 25

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

bar

[deofoled]

Something wrong with it?

[ Killia's not here to drink, but to see what the liquor stock looked like for culinary purposes. But it's hard to miss a reaction like that.]

[acherontiastyx]

Yeah, it tastes like burning.

[he puts the cap or whatever back on and takes it over to the bar proper.]

Why is it that the stuff that'll mess you up the best always tastes like garbage?

[deofoled]

Some of the high shelf liquor that costs 99,000,000 HL [ Pronounced Hell] isn't like that.

[acherontiastyx]

...uh. I think if it costs hell, it's probably gonna taste even more like fire, right?

[deofoled]

It's actually really smooth. [ He does not understand, because not all Netherworlds are fiery!]

[acherontiastyx]

...is it? Huh. What's it made from?

[deofoled]

I've heard some made are made from Alarune petals, or refined gold ooze cores. [ ...umm.]

[acherontiastyx]

Those are sure things I know about. Well, whatever, I guess if it's some weird stuff where you're from it'd have to be pretty good. The weird stuff always tends to be pretty popular.

[deofoled]

I've only had it a few times, I don't drink, I'm not a senator.

[ There is a mild joke in here, maybe.]

[acherontiastyx]

...

What... the heck is a senator.

[WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT OF THE POKEMON WORLD]

[deofoled]

[ idk professors? gym leaders? the elite four? a shiny voltorb who knows.]

The demons who pass bills on what's allowed in a specific Netherworld, like decreased taxes, hosting a welcome party, making prinnies more explosive and so on.

[acherontiastyx]

...yeah, with a job like that, I guess you'd have to drink. That sounds boring as heck.

[deofoled]

[ Nods, then shrugs a bit.]

I've never really had a job, I wouldn't know.

[acherontiastyx]

...I mean, me either, but I've known enough people who've had jobs to make an educated guess.

[deofoled]

...are you a fighter too? [ What else do you do if you don't have a job.]

[acherontiastyx]

Well... yeah, Pokemon Trainers are the closest thing we have to warriors back where I'm from, I guess.

[deofoled]

[ He vaguely understands the whole Pokemon thing.]

Why do you fight?

[acherontiastyx]

...Uhhh.

[way to put him on the spot, killia.]

Be...cause?

[deofoled]

[ I mean, he actually kind of gets that too, still.]

You don't have a goal or anything?

[acherontiastyx]

Oh! Well, yeah, I definitely wanna be the very best like no one ever was, even though, you know, I'm pretty much there already anyway. I can be better than the best.

[deofoled]

You're the stronger Pokemon Overlord? [ Wait, that's not right.] No, you guys don't have Overlords, right?

[acherontiastyx]

[...he kind of thinks about it?]

I mean, I'm the boss of a Team, but I'm not a Kahuna or anything.

[deofoled]

A Kahuna? Isn't that a fish?
