Glimpse Into What Once Was

Subject: Nilatast Finding

Hello everyone- pardon the bit of a mess.
[Papers strewn about, along with a few tools in view, as Turo picked up his shellphone with excitement there in his voice. Setting it down on somethin out of view as he was moving and turning out lights in an office after pushing his desk out of the way.]
As others may have been, perhaps still are, working on various pieces of technology recovered from down so deep, there was an item I discovered in Nilatast that I have finally gotten working! To a small degree, at least— I have only been able to recover one thing on it, but...
[There was an item that was the size of a jewelry box, covered in stars and constellations formed in colored enamel and shined up jewels, that Turo had picked up and was sitting down in the middle of the space he had cleared. Pressing a 'button' at the top.
It sparked to life as suddenly a still image was projected above the box; full of living color and capturing a moment of laughter and fun. The light having warmth and even those creatures outside of such large windows seemed to sparkle. Looking as if everything could be touched—]
Look at this! [Almost looked as if Turo was there, moving to sort of sit by the picture box.] I was able to retrieve the data for this image, I might have found what worked as a photo album, but the item itself came from within one of the ruined buildings down there.
They lived there, played in that city.
[Of course there weren't just human children there, smiling faces all. This was something either a parent or some child that had also been there in the moment wanted to treasure even after the day was over.]
Just a small view into what once was, I suppose.

Incredible how easily the progress of man can be reset, isn't it? The only remnant of such technology are these shellphones.

So much easily lost to the tides.

My own home was lost to the sea. Melted glaciers, rising tides and all that. Although that happened after my people were gone so I suppose they were spared the fate of drowning at least.

I suppose my world is fortunate enough that scientists and those who are pokémon professors of their own regions on top of that pay close attention to pokémon; they are so deeply connected to the health of our world that they will change because of pollution and the like.
We are tied to them, as they are tied to us. [A reason he had to ensure that the time machine couldn't function. No further tampering.] ... and that world ending disaster can be stopped due to that bond, time and time again.

No amount of monitoring the lives of those lesser creatures could have stopped the calamity which ended his people. Even the solution they DID come up with had been a stopgap measure, intended to delay until they found the root cause. There was nothing they could have done. Nothing...
He shouldn't be jealous and bitter towards Turo, but...he is. For this singular moment, he is.
And then it passes. ]
I pray you never encounter a calamity so dire that even the combined efforts of men and Pokemon aren't enough to stave it off.
