Episode 1: A Stranger In Familiar!

[fallers_npcs]

Today on Melemele, there has been a strange and rash sequence of events!

Officer Jenny has been busy, as a series of thefts has been noted across the city. The wealthy industrialist Viren has been targeted several times with valuables relating to the Pokemon Groudon.

As researchers are coming into the town today to help work on the Ultra Hole situation, on invite of the Aether Foundation, it seems that someone might have slipped through into the town. A certain woman in green might have been spotted in several of Viren's locations before a theft has been seen.

Some people might be starting to get uneasy about the influx of people. Perhaps it's time to investigate some of these rumors that a thief might have made their way onto the island...

"Miss Anela tries not to smother me, but...I should, yes."

He rises and dusts himself off. "Thanks again. I'll...see you soon, I hope."

"...Yes. I'll see you then." Off they go then.
