Again, she’s lost track of time.
Courtney huffs as she treks along a damp tunnel, the thumping of her boots against the beaten path the only noise breaking the deadly muffled silence. The source of light is, as she suspected, an exit, and with hands full of dirt covered items, Courtney finally emerges from the Underground.
The sun feels far too bright, but even while squinting she’s able to realize that her roaming in the tunnels has lead her to a different exit. In all honestly, she doesn’t mind- Sinnoh has been nothing but kind to her, and the thrill of exploring a new region is a feeling she’s gladly welcoming. Seeing what she’s been dealing with for the last months, pleasant distractions are more than welcome.
If the thick smell of coal is anything to go by, she’s close to a mine... and sure enough, after a short walk she arrives in what looks like a town whose main thing is exactly that- mining. Hey, maybe if she’s lucky there’s a place where she can clean all the stuff she dug out of the Underground’s walls. Some of this stuff is really starting to weight her down, and she could use some downtime to figure out what some of these rocks are.
Where should she go, though...
