(001/action) The Forest Shrine

[reborn_love]

[Forward dated to Monday the 20th.]

[Elly is back on the patrol. She has her Fletchling, Severain, with her today. She stuck to the forest after getting back from the expedition, giving herself and her Pokémon some rest after the intensity of the last patrol. She decided to investigate the shrines that a few reports from other Rangers and wanderers mentioned, though. That led her to the Forest Shrine. She stares up at it, at the moment.]

[Her rod, which she had used to beat back some underbrush, is in hand. Elly flicks it it out to the side -- and then it telescopes back in. She spins the smaller handle, and tucks it into her belt, before she starts walking closer to the small building and the altar.]

[A place where the dead come back to life... she finds that hard to believe, still.]

[There something that flickers across his eyes as he looks over at the shrine, but he keeps the smile up]

Yeah.

[He'll turn to look at her fully]

Hey, when I get into the Rangers- let's work together, okay? To make sure that dream happens.

[She notices the flicker, but she doesn't comment on it. They all have things they don't want to share with others, or sometimes, things they can't. Elly smiles and extends her hand out towards him.]

It's agreed.

Great! [Definitely happy. FRIENDSHIP] I'll see you then!

[Glancing at the sun's position in the sky]

Though...I should probably head back now, before it gets too late. [And he actually gets into trouble]

[Elly glances up, then back at him. She smiles, then she nods. She can guess why he has to.]

I should note a few tracks ahead, but I will do the same too.

[he nods] Right, ranger stuff.

[He smiles and gives a salute to her] Well, it was great meeting you, Elhaym! I'll seeya later!

[And with a wave, he's heading off with Simba following in tow]
