The family lived o the edge of town. Outside the home there were two children playing but when they saw the strange man approaching they ran inside an moments later a man holding a sword walked out.

"What do you want stranger?" He asked holding the weapon at his side he was gripping it too tightly and his stance was sloppy but it was clear he was ready to use it if he felt the need.

Tsuru smiled at the man, holding both his hands out with open palms at his waist.

"Pardon me, I am new in the region," Tsuru began. "I have heard the miraculous story of a young girl who lived here being healed by a blind man. I am looking for that man. He did me a great service in the past, and I am looking for him to repay his generosity," he said. His tone was neutral, if slightly warm, and he showed no sign of hostility. Indeed, he did not feel threatened by this man in the slightest.

He paused slightly before continuing, still showing his open palms. "I apologize if I have offended you in some way. As I said, I am new to Kanto. If I have broached on some custom that I am unfamiliar with, I am deeply sorry for that."

The man could see that Tsuru was indeed harmless and relaxed.

"Sorry it's just there's been some nasty rumors about bandits lately..." He said "But yes there was an old man he healed my daughter, Than he left." The man said "He refused any kind of reward, even staying the night..." He shook his head in confusion.

"All he asked was to make sure she had a long happy life."

"No apology is necessary," Tsuru said graciously. "Did the man give any indication of where he might be going next? Or perhaps what direction he left by, if you recall?," Tsuru asked. He was curious about these 'bandits', perhaps they were related to Terrakion in some way, but first things first. This could be a solid lead.

"No..To be honest I'm not completely sure where he came from, He just sort of was there when she was sick." The man said "He pulled out some strange crystal that shone so brightly it hurt to look at and...She was better." He said.

"All of us were, we felt better than ever in out whole lives..." There were tears in his eyes "My wife's leg has been lame for years and now she can walk just fine."

"I see...he is also the reason I am alive. He saved my life as an infant, and that is why I am looking for him," Tsuru said. "If you can think of any way to contact him, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it," Tsuru said.

"Now...I must say, you have concerned me with your mention of bandits. This is the first I have heard of them. I was hoping my journey to Mount Moon would be without incident," he said, touching his hand to his forehead as if distressed.

"Those are the very one I'm talking about." The man said "They ride around pulled in a huge cart pulled by a huge pokemon unlike anything anyone seen before...Thing is it never fights." He said.

"Just drops them off and runs off only to pick them up once their boss calls for it."

"Could you tell me about these bandits, and their leader? I would like to know about them if they bar my path to Mount Moon. I have come a long way and would be disappointed to leave empty-handed, without so much as seeing the mountain for myself," Tsuru asked.

"A wid bunch they show up and grab kids and anything metal and than run off." He said gripping his sword tight again "Ain't none of the kids they grabbed been seen or heard about again." He growled.

"The leader is huge easily ten feet and about half as broad, He's got a huge hammer as well." He said "Bigger than any man should be able to lift, when he swing is it the ground shakes....Every man who's been hit by it got killed right away. There whole insides crushed."

"I see...," Tsuru said. He moved his hand to his chin thoughtfully. "I suppose I shall just have to avoid being hit by him as much as I am able," Tsuru said with a cheery grin. "Thank you for your time, I greatly appreciate it. You've been very helpful," he said, turning his eyes toward the road.

"Oh, and if anyone should send a letter or missive for 'Tsuru', please direct them on towards Mt. Moon," he said. "My thanks," he said with a nod, setting his feet toward Mt. Moon.
