Prologue
July 5th, c. 2990 A.W.*, Guyana, South America
The air was extremely hot and humid. Dr. Fuji and his team had been trekking through the dense forest for nearly six hours now, and everyone was exhausted.
A confused young assistant wandered away from his fellow explorers and almost crashed into a wall, well concealed by overgrown vines that twisted around on it.
Stunned for a moment, he soon realised that he was staring at something more than just a stone wall. Unbelieving, he hastily tore off some vines and scrutinised what was in front of him.
It appeared to have been smooth in the past, but was now roughened by thousands of years of the unforgiving elements. On it was a depiction of a hairless cat-like creature which had large eyes and a long tail. The wall was part of an ancient ruins.
"Hey! Doc! What d'ya make of this?" The assistant called out to his senior.
Dr. Fuji made his way to the stone wall. When he saw the artwork, his eyes lit up.
"This is what we will look for."
*A (not so) brief explanation of the year system that I will be using throughout the story:
The entire system is based AZ's line that became a meme in X and Y:
"It's been 3000 years..."
Thus, the Kalos War is 0 A.W. (After War) and the events of X and Y takes place exactly in 3000 A.W.
The rest of the years fall into place quite easily with simple calculation.
(NB) 2990 A.W. Is an approximation.
