#first journey

Knowing that we are heading into Volume 26 (!!!!!!) suggests to me that the First and Second Journeys will be 13 volumes each.

They will match! They will be symmetrical and complementary and pretty on the shelf!

This is deeply satisfying and I am very happy about it.

Hi there! I'm getting ready to go out on my very first adventure and I couldn't be more excited! I'm an adult and didn't get the chance to travel when I was younger, so I know im not the normal demographic, but I figured a ranger who's been out and around may have some advice?

I'm weird and like to sleep with a fan on, no matter the weather. The sound helps put me to sleep. I know that won't always be an option when I have to sleep outdoors. I didn't know if there would be a Pokemon out there that might mimic the sound or coolness to help me sleep? Contradicting, I get cold easily and would love to make sure I have a Fire Type to help in colder areas. What are the safest Fire Types to snuggle up with?

I have my partner Pikachu, my starter Ivysaur (doesn't want to evolve), and my Gyarados (surf mon). My main goal is just to explore and experience new places, but if I happen across a Pokemon that fits well with the group and wants to accompany me, then that's fine as well.

Good bit of info here, but first, let me say congrats!

Just because you're an adult doesn't mean you can't enjoy a journey, and aside from the gym challenges, there are many things you can go out and do.

Without knowing things like your region or what your goals are, I can't answer everything, but I'll try my best.

Let me cover the obvious one and tell you that you're going to need to learn to be uncomfortable and cope a bit with some things you can't control yet.

If you like the sound of a fan, maybe find some fan noises or get a small portable fan and battery to use at night, but you're going to want to travel light.

As for fire types, without knowing your region, that's a bit trickier but I will say that fire types with fur are incredibly warm and are great for keeping close when it gets cold outside, and even though they are warm, they can still get chilly so make sure you're watching for their needs too.

Maybe a Vulpix, or Houndour.

Other than that, I'd advise being open to trying new experiences and don't focus too hard on one thing. We have so much we can learn out in the world.

Trains are perfect meditation spots apparently

Only Dima, Gina and the woodpecker think it’s a bad idea. The boat wont last a second on the ocean…but Romeo and Joun help him to set off early in the next day. Romeo turns back into human for helping and Joun and Dima wait.

When they meet Pinocchio again, he already turned into a human boy. They are happy for him and say their farewells.

They manage to get back to the original universe they started. Finally they have the keyblades back, even though they are in animal form still.

Cinderella finds them and gives them cute little clothes. Jounielle is in love with her dress. When one of the mice has the idea to make Cinderella a nice dress, they decide to help out as well. But when they work on the dress they get ambushed by the Heartless. As tiny as they are now, its impossible to stand a chance against them. Yet, Dima pushes his friends back, ready to fight by himself, and he transforms back into a human.

He fights of the Heartless and leaves with Jounielle quickly. With the help of the mice and birds to not be seen by anyone. But they are corious about that. Dima thought the Feather would give him the ability to fly and transform him into a bird for this, but transforming from bird to human never happened. The fairy studies the feather and explains it has more than one function an is supposed to grow with him. As she can tell the Feather can “Freeze the Moment in Time” aka take pictures, give him the Knowledge of what is to happen and the ability to transform into any living creature of the worlds he encounters in means to protect him and enshure his survival. But when he uses this ability to much, he might be trapped in the form of a bird again. Its meant to teach him to use the magic of the Feather correctly and to engage with the world around him.

Dima thanks the fairy a lot. She even teaches him a little bit of magic. Joun is excited about the news and asks him, to transform her into a human too so they can go dancing at the ball together. She is really looking forward to this. But when Cinderella leaves they follow her. Good thing they do, because when the pumpkin turns back, it becomes a heartless and tries to attack her. Dima and Joun protect her and give her a chance to run.

After that they follow her in distance and watch the story unfold. When she marries the prince, they wave them goodbye.

A quick stop in some more worlds before they find were they left of

In the next world they are in a school with a lamb, as a lamb, and learn from an owl: “It’s what you do with what you got that counts.”

They play with Danny the black lamb before they move on.
