Hello class, everyone get to your seats, we’ve got a lot to cover today. We are continuing our lecture series on the Keepers, and things are only going to ramp up from here. Where we last left off, Virgil and Jacques had overcome what felt like the universe itself throwing something that they were incredibly ill-equipped for directly at them in the form of two large, territorial bird Pokémon. Their unlikely victory was a strong reminder of the power of wits and the mind over sheer force, and...

The team hit the road in the Iron Chariot and stopped after a while for a little training session. While Pandora searched the area, the boys decided to do a little wild Pokémon catching, with… varying degrees of...

Hello everyone, and welcome back. I hope you enjoyed your break. Today, we are resuming our lecture series on the Keepers. If you recall, we last left off with Virgil and Jacques returning to the Keeper Fortress after a few hours of free time inexplicably became a life-altering experience.

Politics presents circumstances similar to other social conflicts: There are “winners” and “losers” in highly competitive situations, one group (usually a party) is more powerful...
