Samples First Person: Q/A
Third Person: It was a wet but not fully rainy day when Sapphire found the treehouses, the air just damp enough to discourage Toro from accompanying her on foot through the woods. Sapphire blinked hard at the image, thinking for a moment that she was imagining it where there was really only overgrowth and broken branches - but no, that was definitely a rope walkway.
The girl stared from the ground for a moment, eyes traveling up and over the structures. Then she took a step back and turned and clambered swiftly up a tree, hands slipping a little against the wet bark. This forest was nothing like her own, less dense and comprised of straight, tall trees without low limbs and situated on mostly flat land and lacking the thick webs of vines that made travel above the ground so easy. Here, she had to rely on long jumps across wide gaps - like this one. Sapphire tensed and gripped and leapt like a spring let out of a can, outstretched hands landing on the edge of a platform and swinging her forward to land on the surface.
It seemed uninhabited. Sapphire sniffed at the air - it smelled uninhabited, too, missing any scent apart from the earthy mix of wood and dirt and chlorophyll that permeated the rest of the forest. "Would ya take a look at this!" she marveled to the Pokemon on her belt, while carefully testing the rope walkway with a foot. Step, step - it was still sturdy. Emboldened, she bounded across it, peering into the small hut at the other end.
"Like Coach's city! It's a little Fortree! Ya think," and she climbed over a house and into the crown of the tree as she asked, "we could stay here? Or at least call 't our place!" Her answer was a chorus of tiny, muffled growls and calls.
Sapphire grinned, standing and surveying the houses from the high point where she stood.. "Then - that's that"
