Suddenly in the midst of a Summer Festival--

[ulternnpc]

 

There's a distinct sound of waves, and bustling of people nearby.

In the coastal city of Turnbloom the sun is bright and warm, and the scent of the sea wafts through with the cool gentle breeze that makes the glittering pinwheels spin, and the leaves on the palm tree dance.

Today the streets are extra decorated with these cute, colorful and floral shaped pinwheels. It seemed the people who were out in the streets were dressed in colorful summer attire--either casual, or the more traditional yukata. It seemed like with the booths were set out for both food and games for festival of some kind that was currently underway.

Just how did you get here, and why? A mystery, and it seemed the people in the streets didn't seem to notice anything out of the ordinary as they go about enjoying their time out on this bright sunny day.

They do.

[ If he were dealing with almost anyone else he'd flatly warn her to not eat put sand in her mouth but Lillie's a smart kid. Right? Right. ]

Right. It would do things like that. Bet this entire place would remind it of Alola too.

[so much faith…]

[She certainly was smart and well-read! But science sometimes demanded a sacrifice, especially when there was no text to consult, and entirely new areas of study, like Marie Curie discovering radium!

She also still had a tendency for magical thinking, like when she believed scattering sand over a ravine might reveal a hidden bridge…

So Lillie tastes a grain of sand.

And promptly spits it out, coughing a little, and nearly falling down, but kept herself propped on her two arms.]

C-conclusion…! Ulk—Ulternian sand is not… in fact… made of konpeito! [Announced, with tears in her eyes!

As to Nanu’s earlier question, Lillie’s Alolan Vulpix Snowy bounds over on the sand, barking in concern, nuzzling Lillie’s side as she recovers from her ill-fated experiment, before turning bright turquoise eyes to watch Nanu.]

[ He makes a startled sound as she spits and coughs, expression souring as he rubs the back of his head again. Snowy's presence does well enough to keep any more severe chastising on the tip of his tongue only there. ]

Can't believe you just did that. [ Can't believe he's putting this responsibility on himself already. With an exasperated groan he motions with a lazy sweep of his hand towards the beachside town. ]

Come on girl, let's get you some water.

I-it's perfectly... rational to conclude, from reading historical accounts, tha... urk, sacrifices must be made for science sometimes!
I was just testing my hypothesis myself.

At least this was just gross. I'm fine, this isn't enough to stop me! [She pumped her fists up, trying to make her biceps prominent, look how tough she is, Nanu! ... and then a little more coughing because ewww, sand.]

Okay... [Lillie and Snowy trail after Nanu.]
