Our story begins on a world that is to us, a world we have known for quite a few years. You could even say it has actually become part of the new culture we raise our children with. At least in some parts of the world. But anyway, back to the story. Let us look at this world. it is a rather regular sized world with one unique feature, It had only a single continent, with a few outlying Islands on the outer edges of the continent itself. As night passes over the continent, only a very dull glow can be seen from a huge conglomeration of people, and those are almost impossible to see from space. Now, let us actually begin with the story.
As the sun slowly rises over the grassy plains of a kingdom known Moidfra, noises could be heard in the forest surrounding the dirt pathway leading to a single high stone wall with banners near the gate. On the banners was a symbol of a pink tail going in a swirl with purple on the outlying edges. As the sun started to come up the tree line slowly there stood, at the gate, two guards with two rather large pikes. they had on some leather pantaloons with white shirts and black cloaks with their hoods pulled up. The torches above them shone rather dimly as the sun rose above the tree line slowly. They only faced forward, ever watchful for invaders and creatures of the forest who would try to harm the people of their kingdom.
There was no steel gate that would come down in the presence of night. There was only those two guards. These two guards against the harsh enemies of the world. in between them, giving a rather different feeling then tiredness and soreness from standing all night, Stood a father and his daughter. You could tell they were father and daughter by the color of their hair, as well as how they stood and the identical Cloaks they wore.
The Father was a rather tall man, standing at around 6 foot 5, he was also old compared to many people who lived in the village. he was around the age of 40, and already he had a few strands of silver hair in his short head of Black hair, though it stood straight up. He had a minor widows peak. he leaned with his left hand on a cane as he gripped it tightly for support. He had on a forest green cloak with the hood on. He had on a grey shirt with brown Pants that had a worn out yellowing piece of rope around his waist. On his back was a leather bag filled with books of some sort.
The daughter was a little shorter then him, she stood at around 5 foot 11, She was at the teenager years of 15. Her hair was the same shade of Darkness as her fathers. But unlike his, her hair was going almost to her waist in a cascade of hair. She had on the same clothes as her father and had on her feet, some leather shoes that protected her feet from the harsh rocks of the road.. She had on a much smaller version of her fathers cloak, and like him, her hood was down. On her back was a leather sack full of food supplies, a hunting knife, and an extra cloak. She looked up at her father with a smile
"Now Mary, You are old enough to head out into the world, a world filled with creatures of unimaginable varieties. But you are also heading out into a world strife with wars, battles, pillaging bands, and bandits of all kinds. But you are heading out into a world where you will find allies who will help you out. " He reaches into leather sack on his back and pulls out a leather bound book with a blood red cover on it. he pulled out a charcoal pencil as well and handed them to her.
"About 20 years ago, the king of our great kingdom entrusted me with a single task, to study the creatures of this realm and catalog each and everyone of them. Now, That is a problem. In the past 20 years, I have only been able to catalog the creatures around our Kingdom. That is why I entrust this book to you. I want you to catalog these creatures for me. I have given them a single name to refer to all the different species. I call them Pokemon. You will need to search high and low for every single kind. " he smiles and sets a hand on her shoulder and she beams at him
"I will make you proud father!" she suddenly hugs him quickly and starts to run off, the book in her right hand as well as the charcoal pencil as she follows the dirt road heading for the forest. Her father cups his hands around his mouth
"Head for the shrine and pray to the goddess before you leave! for good luck!" She turns back for a moment
"I will!" and with that, Mary began a long journey that would lead her from her small town, to the far ends of the earth. To other realms not dreamed of before, to realms you would never want to see. She was going to make a legend that would span the edges.
