    There's no hurry--take time to rest and heal--get well soon!

    Is it a tradition all over Paldea? Or does it work differently between towns?

    It is slightly different from town to town

    In that case, I'm thinking that Pepe would've seen something like this in Cortondo Sevaro and/or Cascarrafa Garrafosa before meeting the girls. How would it work there?

    In Sevaro, they throw mint leaves and flowers (and sometimes olives)
    In Garrafosa, they throw sapphire, pearls, and coins

    The question goes both in-character and out actually. For the OOC answer, feel free to put a dot on the South Province map here.

    Like, somewhere between Cabo Poco Cucharico and Los Platos Pratolido?

    Basically following an expanded version of that route.

    Yeah, yeah, I know. I've been assuming that the map scales differently between the games and this RP anyway.

    Plus, you still haven't answered my question, so lemme word it this way: Is Brioso closer to Cucharico or Pratolido?

    Not too far from Cucharico--you have a way to go to reach Pratolido.

    The Tales of Sir Valiente

    "The Tales of Sir Valiente" is a well known collection of hero tales and folktales that any Paldean minstrel would know. Featuring the titular knight (it is said he was from Brioso, but several other places claim to be his hometown), the tales follow his adventures battling dragons and monsters, as well as rogues and corrupt nobility to justice.

    So far, minstrels and scholars have documented well over 1200 distinct tales featuring him (and millions more versions of these), creating a sort of "Sir Valiente" canon.

    Juliana knows a few Sir Valiente stories--sometimes she will perform them as epic songs, and sometimes she will speak with guitar accompaniment.

    Remind me, have we decided on our pearl count target?

    Is 50 too much, or too little? I know I want to feature all the SV places, but also some more places based on real Spain...

    I'd say too much considering what happened in Evo Quest: we went through 6 dragons in the span of 3 years worth of storytelling. 50 pearls might take more than that to finish depending on our irl stuff.

    Okay--would 25 be too much to play in detail, and speed through the rest?

    And now I'm wondering what Alolan folktales in this world revolve around...

    I mean, I'd love to say that Pepe's bound to know some, but I'm drawing a blank myself.

    Alolan tales in this world revolve around the tapu, local heroes, and how things came to be.
