If Shaun had to guess, it was just past noon when the city finally came into view. The sun was high in the sky, though the thick canopy of the forest they had been travelling through obscured most of the light. It had been a grueling two weeks of travel, and from what the Buizel could gather morale was low. Until finally, they topped a hill, and the city was in view.
It was more beautiful than anything he had seen in pictures. Glass faced buildings towered over the tree tops in the distance. Much closer to them, solid looking structures made of stone lined paved roads. These buildings weren’t as tall as the glass ones, but still much bigger than anything Pokemon could manage to build. The rumors were correct. The city looked brand new, and stood out oddly in this heavily forested area. The edge between the city and forest was clearly defined, though the city was showing some signs of wear close to the treeline.
“We’re coming in from uptown, by the looks of things,” Andy said, “Humans were thought to live in stone buildings like that. They could fit dozens at a time.” The Mienfoo pointed towards the glass buildings, “And down there is downtown. It’s where the humans bartered with each other.”
“Yeah, yeah,” Cyrus waved dismissively, already walking down the hill towards the city, “Homes and market, let’s find some relics to take back.”
“Cyrus, we should stay together,” Andy called.
“No point,” Liam frowned, “there’s way too much ground for us to cover together. I’ll keep our little Sneasel and Oshawott out of trouble. Belle, you take Shaun and Tyler and head to this ‘downtown.’ Andrew, you take Kira and Bruce around ‘uptown.’ We’ll meet back here tonight for dinner.”
Taking Dylan with him, Liam went after the Sneasel, leaving the remaining six guild members on the hill. Andrew and Belle exchanged glances, before turning to the four recruits.
“You heard the Guildmaster, boys,” the Gligar said, “Anything you want us to look for, Andy?”
The Mienfoo nodded, “Yes! Currency, and any sort of items humans would have sold each other. I’ll let you determine what’s useful and what isn’t. We’ll probably be here a few days anyway, so it doesn’t really matter if you don’t find anything today.”
“As for us,” the Mienfoo continued, turning to Kira and Bruce, “Humans compiled their knowledge in buildings they called Libraries. Unfortunately, paper degrades easily. If we can find any books in good condition, especially one that translates human language and Unown text, it’d be a huge advancement in human studies.”
With that, Belle led the Buizel and Cyndaquil off towards the city, leaving Andy behind with the last two recruits.
“Any questions?” Shaun heard the Mienfoo ask. If only Belle was that considerate to him and Tyler.
