DarkDigi PKMN AU Event Blog

A research project, that was all. Monkshood Haven, home to the mysteries and secrets of Digitalis, where was studied the legends of the two moon pokemon and the mysteriously unnamed third entity. The new moon, the full moon, and the space between them.

Pouring over the ancient documents, Aster took notes in his journal on the rituals and legends involved in the story. Cresselia and Darkrai could both be summoned using similar rituals at the temple in the middle of the lake using differing artifacts, both of which were housed in Monkshood.

Aster had been given special permission by the town as well as Professor Hemlock, and even the Champion himself to investigate these legends and see if they might be of aid in preventing whatever calamity might be coming at the hands of the sinister Team Eclipse. At the very least, he had to be sure they were still there.

Following the events at Mayapple, Aster had been found hiding in the back, the whole thing blowing over for him as being assumed to have been frightened. He was holding several rare megastones, which he claimed to have grabbed instinctively as everything began to fall apart. He even had a couple of keystones with him.

Now, in the absence of the moon over Monkshood tonight, Aster had done his job. There was some sort of commotion outside. He knew he wouldn’t have much time left. Which Pokemon had they wanted to summon? He grabbed one of the talismans, running toward the exit, an alarm had been triggered and he knew they would come to check on him soon.

Hemlock nodded, searching once more for the appropriate stone. “You’ve got a special one there,” she commented. “Ken of the Elite Four has a Mega Absol too.”

Professor Hemlock had been calmly appraising the situation. Marking her decision to get involved with a nod, she tossed a Pokeball into the air, releasing her Aerodactyl. His sharp screech stopped most activity in the hall. “Could everyone stealing perhaps stop what they’re doing?“

Zorana, collecting herself, brought out her Druddigon, trying to follow her mentor’s lead. “Just try it, pal,” she snarled at the closest grunt.

Hemlock glanced at her fiery assistant with fondness before scanning the area for Aster, finding no trace of him. She could be concerned later, now was the time to get things under control. Most attention was now on her, bar a few grunts battling some audience members, and someone far in the back.

“Why are you doing this?” The question came out measured, only the barest hint of anger and curiosity in her voice.

One of the men nearby snickered. “Boss’s orders, that’s what. Eclipse will remake the world! We just need some firepower to make it happen.”

Clearly having gotten what they came for, the Eclipse members began moving out, dropping whatever battles they were engaged in and running with the Mega Stones they’d managed to collect.

The exhibition hall was packed, and Hemlock’s assistants were busy as ever, answering the questions of curious kids as they wandered the room’s expanse. Aster seemed distracted, and when not directly questioned, he was far more quiet than usual. When the two took their seats at the front of the hall in preparation for Hemlock’s speech, Zorana eyed him with a frown.

“What’s up with you today? I thought you were excited for this.”

Before there was a chance to respond, Professor Hemlock took the stage to an array of clapping. As soon as the applause died down, she began to speak:

“Thank you all for coming here today for the Mega Stone Showcase. It’s an honor that so many are in attendance. For those who don’t know me, I am Professor Hemlock, resident Pokemon expert here in the Digitalis region. Some of my work has focused on Mega Evolution, and that is what I am here to discuss with you today. Now--”

Just then, a flash of noise and light rocked the entrance. Several screams echoed even after the burst of sound had finished. Zorana was on her feet, head turning every which way to figure out what was going on. Aster had rushed to the emergency exit.
