The path through the - admittedly quite light - forest is either extremely well-maintained or extremely new. In places, there are what appear to be Pokemon trails that have forged paths into the forested area. A few Pokemon call in the distance, though none are immediately visible.

"It's this way, I believe!" Oscar says, striding confidently in the direction that he's pretty sure they come from.

Fortunately, it turns out he was correct as he walks into the campsite.

"Sorry about all that!"
He says to Jeremy as he goes to pack up his tent. "Spot of bother with the rangers. Still, everything should be alright now... or as alright as it can be, at any rate."

Since she's been gearing herself up for a low-key sort of rivalry with Oscar, it's annoying that he figures out which way to go before she does, but since it's either follow him or stay lost in the woods, Isabella swallows her own pride and trails after him.

"These Pokédexes oughta have a compass or something on them," she mutters quietly. Then she looks up and addresses Jeremy properly. "Hi. You ever run into a big fat ranger sergeant who shouts a lot, punch him in the face for me. He accused us of being the poachers. At least the guy in charge was nice."

Jeremy's eyes open lazily as he hears the sound of approaching footsteps, the sound of rain having seemingly put him to sleep. He is still clearing the fog when Oscar talks to him and completely misses what he says, so he decides to simply mutter a noncommittal "Mmm."

It's hard not to hear Isabella though, especially when she's talking directly at you.

"Punch an authority figure in the mouth. Got it. That'll keep us out of trouble." He jokes, giving her a finger-gun-and-wink motion. "So," He says through a yawn and a stretch. "What now?"

Sibyl is slightly miffed as she realises her guess at direction was way off point, but follows Oscar without complaint: not like you could just choose not to follow anyway.

"Hey Jerry, wakey wakey," she says cheerily, seeing Jeremy rise and shine as they arrive. "Sorry for keeping you, especially since we don't have much to show. Looks like the professionals are on the case, and the poachers are long gone. We should keep going now, I guess," and shrugs. She goes to put away her stuff, made much easier thanks to Jeremy's help. "Thanks, by the way," she adds.

Oscar stops halfway toward his tent, noticing it's already packed up. He stumbles for a moment. "Yes, thank you. Anyway," He picks up his equipment and points down the path, almost striking a pose, "on to Katei Town!"

The rest of the day's travels go somewhat less eventfully than the morning - with the slight exception that you are still being dutifully followed by the Shinx cub, who makes a bit of a nuisance of himself in trying to shelter from the drizzle by hiding under everyone's legs. That aside, you reach your next rest stop without incident just after sunset, and a helpful signpost informs you that you are roughly three hours away from Katei Town.

The weather, however, gets no better the next day.

When the party stops for the night, this time Sibyl unceremoniously sticks one of the intricate seals onto the front of her tent - seeing Entei seemed to have awakened her superstitious side once more. Or more likely, it never quite went away in the first place, but she wouldn't admit that.

In the morning, as she spends some time writing some more seals, she realises it'd be a good idea to do something with these other than keeping all of them. So when everyone's awake, she calls everyone over and says, a little awkwardly, "Hey... You know, since the whole, um, everything, that happened yesterday, I thought maybe you could all hang onto one of these. Since I have some left over now. It's for good luck," as she holds out a seal for everyone.

"Y'know, I was so pumped about goin' on this adventure. For gettin' away from Goldenrod and explorin' the rich tapestry of nature for the first time in my life." Jeremy says, to no-one in particular, as he struggles with his tent poles in the rain. "Two days in and all I can say is at least in Goldenrod I could buy a damn umbrella."

When he wakes up and hears that the patter of rain rolls on he curses under his breath.

When Sibyl calls the group over, he takes her gift and inspects it. "Thanks, Sib. It's cool...uhh, what is it?"

Oscar yawns and rubs an eye as he takes one of the offered tags. "Indeed, it's a very fine..." He trails off as his still-sleepy brain realises he has no idea what this piece of paper is or does. "... very fine work." He says after a moment's thought. "I'm sure it will be very useful." He says, then decides to stay quiet in the hopes Sibyl will explain what they are.

Sibyl explains casually, "These are protective charms. They'll keep you safe you from evil spirits: trust me, it works. You just put it over where you don't want them coming through." She then looks away, sighs and mumbles to herself, still audible to everyone, "Can't believe I'm still doing this, but..." She then snaps back into focus from her thinking aloud. "Umm... Just take it. I think you'll need them."

She then looks to Isabella's response regarding the charms.
