Nicholas took his hand off the hilt of his sword after seeing the man's interaction with Iris. It seems they knew each other. "Who is this?" He asked her.

"The name is Jonathan Cole, like Iris said I'm a travelling merchant." Said Jonathan, he then noticed everyone pointing their weapon at him "You know... Could you all please stop pointing those at me?" He was understably disconfortable with it.
"And I'm Alden, good to see you again Cyril" Said the Haxorus, looking at Cyril who just waved at him, he then saw Nene "Oh, hi there!"
Planet-Killer
Joshua simply glanced at Iris when she identified the Unknown, whom was apparently her friend before asking him about his discovery.
"What could you have possibly found?"
Perun calmed down after everything had been cleared up, but he was still a bit on edge; most likely because he was still being watched by the Ice Pokemon.
Shameless Self-promotion ho!
Screw the Lion!
"Okay, just as long as you don't attack us," Edwin said, and then he unscrewed his long hammer. "Though, what kinds of weird things did you see here?" he asked.
"We believe any information about this location would be important to us for our investigation," Stumpy added.

"Before you answer that, why is your hand on fire?" Asked Iris, expecting something really weird to be said.
"I'm using the fire to keep myself and Alden warm, it also scares away some of the Ice types around here, so I'm having a rather easy travel, even if it tires me out to use this for so long." Explains Jonathan, smiling at her
"Huh... Quite clever, still, what did you see that was weird?" Asked Iris, just like the others.
"You won't believe me, I swear I saw Rayquaza around here!" Jonathan seemed very excited just by talking about it.
Screw the Lion!
Edwin bolted straight for Jonathan and grabbed him by the shoulders. "You saw it?! Where?! WHERE?!?" the Green Knight Leader asked, starting to panic and shaking the merchant wildly. "Tell us man!! TELL US!!! The Fate of the Kingdom and possibly the entire WORLD could hang in the balance!!"
Stumpy then pulled Edwin off the merchant, did a forward flip, and slammed the balls on his tail right upon his trainer head.
"Thanks, I needed that," he grumbled. "Ouchies."
"Sorry about that," Stumpy said. "But seriously, this is very important, where did you see Rayquaza?"

"Yeah, spill it! Where's Rayquaza?!" Yelled Salamence while Nicholas was deep in thought.
This confirms it. Rayquaza descended from the ozone layer and into human sight. But the question again is why? What caused him to do this?

THAT got Martel's attention. Having been from a cold and wet enviroment he was a bit more resistant than the other knights towards the cold but had still been off in his own world "Tell me sir merchant. When and where did you see this Rayquaza? Also do you have any idea of the direction he was headed in? It's imperative to our quest and any help would be must appriciated and rewarded with compensation."
He turned to Nicholas "This confirms our worst fears. He's awake and he has desended to human lands. I don't like this. We had better prepare for the worst. This is truely going to be a war for the ages." Despite his words he didn't seem very happy at that thought.

"Wow, you actually believe me?" He said, a bit disoriented due to the shaking he received "It was quite a sight, but it was a sight that could kill us so I hid myself when I saw it, I guess it was near the temple." He then put his hand on the chin, trying to remember something else.
"I think I saw it fight with something, maybe a Pidgeot." Said Alden.
"Neverthless, I was hiding away from it just so I could live a bit more you know, so I don't know where it went." Said Jonathan, he then looked weirdly to the group "Are you guys actually planning on fighting it...? Iris... You're not going to get involved in this right...?" Said him, looking at Iris, worried.
"I guess, if we have to face it at some point..." Said Iris, keeping herself calm and serious.
"Don't you think you're going too far on the whole rising-in-the-ranks thing? To me this just sounds like a suicide mission!" Said Jonathan, clearly concerned about the safety of his friend.
A Crimson Harbinger
Martl sighed "I know that this sounds like a suicide mission and in some regards it may very well be. However if it sets your mind at ease I will give you a knight's oath, That Iris will retun alive." He then nodded "And thank you you information will come in most useful in our quest." He sighed once more "The pidgeot belonged to our friend here." He pointed to sir Aaron "Did he at least give as good as he got?"

"I'm not giving up on this, Jonathan, sorry." Said Iris, confident, but she wasn't exactly happy with it.
Jonathan then gave her a disappointed look as he sighed "You know, I'm your friend since we were eight, and it was I who supported your decision to become a knight, I'm really regreting having done that now, come on Iris... This is just crazy!." Said him, completely ignoring what Martel said and just paying attention to her.
"It went as well as you think, except the Pidgeot managed to escape alive." Said Alden, he then turned his head to face Cyril, who was just listening to the conversation "Won't you say anything?"
"No... I'll leave the decision in mistress's hands" Answered him.
"As always huh?" Said Alden, with a small chuckle but clearly a bit disappointed by him.
"Jonathan, I already made my decision, sorry but I'm going to follow this mission to the end." Said Iris, she hated having to go against him, but she couldn't back down now.
He just sighed and looked at the others "You're going to the temple, like me, right? If that's the case... Can I go along? I promise I won't cause any trouble" He asked, with a troubled voice.
A Crimson Harbinger
Martel thought for the briefest of moments "If this lot are okay with it I think your support would be invaluable." He gestured to the various knight leaders "We aren't exactly unknown people you see. As a merchant who isn't a member of the knighthood of the country you are capable of things that we aren't. I immagine that besides the news of Rayquaza there is also all sots of valuable information that you could have for us and could easily gather in towns."
He nodded his head "As much as we like to think that we know and get on with the people we are still knights and knight leaders at that so there are things that they wouldn't talk to us about that they would tell you." He nodded one last time "Plus it means that gathering supplies would be easier, If we go into a town and tell them to give us supplies then we both get a bad name and announce our presence to the enemy. All in all. Having you with us would be a major assistance. I do trust that you can handle yourself in a fight? This won't be an easy journey nor will it be one without battle."
He turned to the Haxorus "When he reached us he died after passing on a message of what had happened. I just wanted to know if he had fought well."

"Oh... So he still died, sorry for the loss, at least he managed to tell you what happened" Said Alden, looking at Sir Aaron, a bit saddened.
Iris then turned to Martel "Um... Sir Lascet, I don't think he'll stay around for too long" Said her, she then looks at Jonathan for a few seconds then starts to get a bit depressed "Sorry Jonathan, I really didn't want to make you worry, but I really need to continue this quest..." She thought, trying to avoid eye contact with him.
"Yeah... To be honest I only want to go to the temple, after that we would part ways, I'm sorry but I don't want to be too involved in this mission of yours." Said Jonathan, sighing before continuing "Iris may be my best friend ever, but it's not because of that that I'm going to take part in this suicide mission."

"Suicidal though it may," Ranmaru said, having walked up to Iris, Jonathan and Martel and listened to their conversation, "we are honour-bound to undertake it, no matter the cost to ourselves."
"I'm Nene! Pleased to meet you!" the Absol told Alden.

Joshua and Perun silently listened to the conversation between the others, Perun thought that the Merchant was a coward; but the Zebstrika didn't hold it against him since it was to be expected of a commoner who probably hasn't taken anyone's life yet. While Joshua waited for the conversation to end before approaching Jonathan.
"What is your reason for going to the temple?"
Shameless Self-promotion ho!
A Crimson Harbinger
Martel chuckled despite himself "Sorry about that. When I start thinking I sometimes get a bit ahead of myself. Feel free to come with us to the temple we can't really stop you anyway. But like Sir Joshua said, what is your reason for wanting to go to the temple?"

"I just go around exploring places and searching for good things to sell, nothing big, I just want to take a look at the temple and see if there's something interesting in there, Rayquaza did appear there after all." Said Jonathan, rubbing the back of his head
"Hi Nene, nice to meet you" Said Alden, smiling to the Absol "But yeah, we're just curious explorers that sell some of the things we find so we can have some money. If we could we would just go around exploring the world." Added him.
Screw the Lion!
"Well, this is Rayquaza we're talking about, so we can probably use all the help we can get," Edwin said to Jonathan. "Still, if you don't want to help, we perfectly understand. If it gets too hot when we actually go up against Rayquaza, its best if you just bounced to spread the word. We don't want a civilian getting killed on our watch if any of us don't make it."

"But we could really use your help, since you also have a Dragon Pokemon." Hyperion said. "With Haxorus's physical power, it would really help us out."

Havoc at his side, Ken listened quietly to the conversation of the Knights. As he listened, he became more and more enthralled with the idea of offering his services to them. Perhaps...
"Do we cry Havoc?" Ken asked his partner. The Dark Pokémon solely responded with a nod. Any mission Ken was willing to take, Havoc was willing to follow.
He carried himself with total confidence as he strode toward the Knights, as usual he already had his armour on, if anyone were to doubt he was a civilian. "Gentlemen. I hear you discuss a task of great danger. It just so happens I specialise in tasks of great danger."
Curse the ill fortune that led you to me.

"Oh! My manners, where were they?" He gave all of the Knights present a bow. "Ken Hart, freelancer sword for hire and Havoc," He gestured to the Houndoom "the dog of war."

"A mercenary huh? I get a lot of you fella back home." Martel said "Tell me what have you been involved in? That include batles, wars and the such. I want to know just how skilled you are." He shook his hed "Anyway I am Sir Martel Lascet, the Blue Knight." He gestured to Levia the Milotic "And this is my partner Levia, The Queen of the Seas."
"That's a new one. Anyway well met." Levia replied.
