"Of course", the old man said with a nod as he followed along the girls. "...Are we expecting threats in particular?" he asked them as he walked alongside them, though keeping an eye out just in case. 6 in Intelligence to do the latter.

"Not much outside maybe a wild Pokemon if it gets too agressive." Pyrrha said.
"In this world there are these creatures called Pokemon." Ikazuchi explained. "They're really strong, and have all sorts of powers. The people of this world like to catch and befriend them using them either for pets, labour, or sport fights." She said taking out a small ball with two colors and a single button. "This is what they catch them with, it's called a Pokeball... You throw it at a weakened Pokemon, and it gets sucked right in."

"Hm. Interesting. I was wondering about that too, to tell the truth", the wizard said. "So Bill here is a pokemon... as were those large wasps I encountered in the forest", he pondered.

"Ah yes. Those are Beedril." Pyrrha said. "They are agressive and dangerous in large groups, but relatively weak on their own." She explained as a huge bipedal bear with a massive ring on it's chest burst out of the woods. "And here's an Ursaring! I'll keep it away, the rest of you supply aid from the rear!" She ordered.
"Hai!" The girls all said.

Gandalf immediately proceeded to use a protective spell on the redhead while he stood back between the little ones and the bear to protect the former if necessary. 8 in Abjuration (Guarding-Spell) plus 2 from Master Wizard, into boosting Pyrrha's Defense VS Physical/Energy by 6 for 5 panels including this one.
8 (Ef) in Close Combat (Staff) plus 4 from my staff; into defense. (Total ph.defense: 16)

You watch her swing and thrust a spear at the beast. Her body generating some sort of invincible armor to protect her from the blows she can't avoid.
"Fire in the hole/nanodesu!" The girls all say opening fire with cannons on their shoulders. Pyrrha jumps away as several explosive shells strike the bear and explode staggering it hard.
"He's a lot tougher than I feared." Pyrrha said.

"Then perhaps this can help", the wizard said as he brandished his staff and attempting to paralyze the bear to end the threat there. 12 (Ef) in Enchantment (Spellbinding) +2 from Master Wizard, into a 14 stones attack VS Durability + Magical Defense to paralyze for 1 panel/red stone of 'damage'.
8 (Ef) in Close Combat (Staff) plus 4 from my staff; into defense. (Total ph.defense: 16)

You manage to freeze the bear, and knock it out.
"Okay, good work everyone. Let's move along fast." Pyrrha said moving on.

The old man pressed onwards with them. 1 in Speed to move along with them to put more distance between them and the bear.

Soon you arrive in a city... a sprawling urban metropolis totally unlike the quiet down home nature of the Shire or Rivendell. Hell it even lacks the regality or prestige of Edoras, or Mina Tirith.
"Welcome to Goldenrod City. For lack of a better term, this is our home for now." Pyrrha said.

"Quite impressive", the old man said, intrigued by his significantly technologically advanced surroundings. "I feel like I might have to... catch up a little on my interpretation of what 'modern' means", he pondered as he walked with them. "Does this world know of magic?"

"Magic?" Pyrrha asked. "Not that I know of. In my world Magic is exclusive to the four maidens." She said.
The four small girls all shook their heads as well.

"Mh. Probably good to keep in mind", he pondered as he simply followed along with the girls.

"Everyone in my world just uses Aura instead." Pyrrha said. "It's like using the energy in your very soul to armor and empower yourself against hits."

"I assume that is what I have seen you use earlier against that bear?" he asked.
