The Preamble Becons| Scene One: Act One

[tickleironysjudgment]

[The camera opens to some slight shifting as it traces the path of the ethereal being it has been pointed at, there is a slight bit of delay and the furious sound of a pen on paper in the very near background. Anima, a Misdreavous, is eagerly flitting about somewhere in Goldenrod while a certain mad scientist is taking notes.]

...not entirely unlike their p-p-power, however so very different in so very profoundly many ways. So many subspecies with infinitely many different potential uses and talents. A nearly inexhaustible amount of resources here for research...

[The camera pauses as Anima is now staring directly into it and beyond it. It makes a few cries, then passes through the camera and begins to do...something. Immediately the camera shifts wildly in various directions and Agnus makes a very obvious noise of irritation.]

Anima. Anima! Return that at once, you m-m-m-miserable phantom! Anima! I am p-p-perfectly aware of where I need to be.

[Cut to Agnus' face, sans monocle, noticeably irritated. Anima hovers around him enthusiastically.]

It was my assumption that these strange c-creatures would prove vastly less unwieldy to a keen wit and immovable will. They most certainly do not. [He reaches out and snatches the monocle back up from the creature when it is unexpected, then places it back on his face calmly.]

If any members of the O-order of t-t-the Sword are present on this band, I advise you to contact me immediately. Chief Alchemist Agnus, reporting. Awaiting c-c-c-contact, over and out. [The broadcast cuts out, but the link is left open for contact.]

[He mutters with an infinitely amused grin.]

...may the Savior be praised...

[Then clears his throat and adjusts his monocle.]

I will request a meeting with Gorthan and clearance to head for Celadon immediately, then. If you please, Commander, would you send in word ahead that my talents may come in handy? Any accreditation I can accumulate would be appreciated.

Clearance granted, but getting there may be easier said than done. Getting to Celadon requires getting past the chaos in the ssstreets, boarding the train, and then navigating from Saffron to Celadon. Both of which are also under attack by the mutant trash Pokemon.

I'll ssend advance notice if I hear from him, but you may also want to keep an eye on the network. Gorthan is hard to miss. He's rather...theatrical.

[That's probably the best way to put it.]
