Description
After all the mess, the Masked finally settled down. Aelius and Anthea regained their body warmth. Aelius’ body had turned back to yellow, Anthea was still purplish blue, but it was perfectly normal for an Oddish. Although they were still breathing weakly, it was safe to assume that they were fine. They just needed much more time to recover.

The sky was no longer pink and orange. It was instead, swallowed by darkness. The moon and her sparkly friends were hiding behind the thick, grey clouds. It was very dim in the forest and around the tent. You could only see the campfire, still burning in the dark. The wind was gradually growing stronger, more snow was drifting down. Apart from the area around the campfire, the floor was piled up with soft and sparkly snow.

Leon reckoned they must stay in the tent for the night; he thus started boiling water collected from a nearby river. They were simply too poor. The tent and sleeping bags were all they could afford. The Poke they had got from recent missions helped them out a bit, but the Riolu and the Castform were still far from a nicely built house. The merchants were setting prices pretty high these days yet they called it reasonable.

The Riolu went into the tent to prepare the sleeping bags. He had two of them, one for himself and one for Meri. Both of them were quite thick and warm but they would not be sufficient for wintry nights. Hence, Leon grabbed four blankets out from the cabinet and wrapped the sleeping bags with them. He placed one blanket on and under each sleeping bag respectively to help insulate cold air at night. Meanwhile, Noir helped harvest the snow-covered berries, just in case they would need them for later use. Meri stayed around Aelius and Anthea to make sure they were in the best condition.

By the time Leon came out, the water was near boiled. He lifted the metal container away from the fire and poured the hot water into several glass bottles carefully. The fire had nearly died down, so Leon reserved some water to pour on it later. He lifted the bottles of hot water into the tent and stuffed them into the sleeping bags. They would be providing most of the warmth for the night.

He went out again, carrying the two fragile grass-typed Pokemon. “Meri, go to sleep now. They will be alright by tomorrow.” The Castform nodded slightly and followed Leon into the tent. As soon as she entered the tent, she turned back to her usual form. Meri went into one of the sleeping bags, with Aelius and Anthea by her side. By the time she closed her eyes, she was already in deep sleep. Today must have been a very tough day for her.

“Sleep well.” Leon covered them properly with the blankets. Then, he blew out the lantern and exited from the tent to take care of the remaining things.

“So… Could you tell me who Aelius and Anthea are now?” Noir had finished harvesting the berries. He drifted near Leon and lowered his body around the campfire. He put the crate of berries somewhere warm to let the snow on them melt.

Seeing the Haunter was clueless, Leon decided to tell him their history.
