[ Dawn was rather unnerved when she found herself and Empoleon, not in the middle of a muddy lake, but a grand hall. One that she was tracking mud all over its expensive looking floor. Deciding that it probably wasn't a good idea for her to hang around any longer, she scurries to the exit, leaving a trail of muddy footprints

[ ...snow?

there's snow here, too? just how far out could this girl be? ]

Anybody given you a map yet? It kinda sounds like you need one.

[championship]

[ Probably in the next district over, actually. ]

Maps? No, am I supposed to have one?

[ SHE WOULD LIKE ONE VERY MUCH, LEA. ]

[rocksascarf]

[ ...this city is really big, man. ]

You kinda gotta make your own, or go to the library.

[ IF HE CAN'T EVEN FIND THE SNOW, THEN YOU DON'T WANT ONE OF HIS MAPS. ]

[championship]

[ CLEARLY YOU NEED TO DO SOME MORE EXPLORING. Let's form a Pokemon Exploration Team, Lea! ]

Oh, there's a library? Where is it?

[ ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN NOTHING MAN. ]

[rocksascarf]

[ he's trying his best here! he has to stop to do things, like eat! ]

In the Metropolis district! You can get there by, uh...going south. [ he thinks. ]

[championship]

[ And shower, right.

...Right? ]

Oh, okay!

[ Beat. ]

...Uh, how do I find south?

[rocksascarf]

[ .....uh.

right. ]

I guess...well...

[ why is this so hard ] Well, you should just be able to tell! Everybody has an innate sense of direction, you know?

[championship]

[ ......does she need to get a hose, lea. ]

Th-they do?

[ THIS IS NEWS TO HER. ]

...I... I-I don't think I have one, um...

[rocksascarf]

[ n...no. of course not. ]

Then, uh...there should be some mountains, right?

I think if you turn your back on them and walk in the opposite direction, that should be south.

[championship]

I-I'll have to remember and do that!

I... I-I'm kind of stuck...

[rocksascarf]

[ and now he's just confused. ]

Stuck? Stuck how?

[championship]

U-um... In... In the snow...

[ LOOK SHE CAN GET HERSELF OUT OF THIS SNOW DRIFT IT JUST MIGHT... TAKE A BIT. ]

[rocksascarf]

You're not...buried, are you?

[ HE'S PRETTY SURE THAT'S DANGEROUS ]

[championship]

Not... Not completely!

[ SHE CAN'T FEEL HER TOES ANYMORE LEA ]

[rocksascarf]

Someone's coming to get you, right? Like a rescue?

[ please let someone be going to get her. snow's COLD. ]

[championship]

Y-yeah, so you don't need to w-w-w-worry!

[ No, she's not chattering. Well okay, maybe... maybe a little. BUT DON'T WORRY, LEA. ]
