Of course. Is there anything else?

[preybeforemeals]

...I understand there's a shrine in Ilex Forest; it's something to do with Celebi.

Since you've been researching this region's legends, I'm wondering if you know anything about that.

[sadisticwarfare]

Unfortunately, that seems to be all the information there is on that shrine. It belongs to Celebi and it's not to be disturbed. I don't know anything else about the shrine, but if you've researched Celebi you've probably read that it's supposedly a time travelling Pokémon.

[preybeforemeals]

Has anyone tried to find out more about it, to your knowledge?

I'm not talking about the locals, either; I'm talking about those of us who are all dealing with time paradoxes left, right and center.

[sadisticwarfare]

I haven't heard about anyone researching it, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone has.

[...]

Come to think of it, I'm surprised no one's attempted to vandalize it.

[HIS FIRST THOUGHT WAS TO DESTROY IT, UM]

[preybeforemeals]

[..................]

There are two types of people, I suppose.

[sadisticwarfare]

Of course. It just seems like something one of the numerous teenagers that have shown up here would do.

[preybeforemeals]

Perhaps I'll investigate it a bit myself, once winter has passed.

[sadisticwarfare]

Have you been through the forest already? It's... quite the trip.

[preybeforemeals]

Ah, no, I haven't...is it bad?

[sadisticwarfare]

...Don't shake the trees.

[This is a very painful memory, okay.]

[preybeforemeals]

Is there something in th-

[......]

Of course there is.

[sadisticwarfare]

I spent far too long in that forest listening to Pineco exploding.

[preybeforemeals]

...Ah.

[Why.]

May I ask something else? I know I've been throwing a lot of questions at you.

[sadisticwarfare]

Of course. I don't mind answering. What is it?

[preybeforemeals]

The recent bombing attack on Ecruteak...that was Seth's doing, n'est-ce pas?

[sadisticwarfare]

It was, yes. Did you hear the announcement? He announces his attacks in advance.

[preybeforemeals]

Is it always bombs with him?

[sadisticwarfare]

He set the Bellsprout Tower on fire some time ago, but bombs do seem to be a frequent part of his attacks.

[preybeforemeals]

Ah...

[Hmm. All right then.]

And he's never been caught...?

[sadisticwarfare]

No, he hasn't. At least, there's never been any report of his arrest; I'm sure they'd make that public if they did catch him.

[preybeforemeals]

I'd hope so - he's a bit notorious, isn't he? Are the announcements always delivered in the same way?

[He hesitates once that's out there, though.]

I'm asking a lot of questions, aren't I...? It's just that that was...well, I'm a college student. Terrorist threats aren't something I have any experience with, it was a bit terrifying.

[sadisticwarfare]

No, it's quite alright. He's been doing this for a long time and his methods are usually the same. They're... interesting, though I have no idea why he launches these attacks in the first place.

[preybeforemeals]

Has he never verified why?

[sadisticwarfare]

From the sound of it, he does it because he finds it fun. There doesn't seem to be any sort of reason otherwise.
