I guess if you spilled your guts, you deserve mine. It won't make a good bedtime story, though. [It's meant as levity, but he doesn't really put any heart in it. Nanu sighs and leans his head back.] ...I don't know how much Anabel's told you about what she does. It's not my business to tell you hers. But she's on the same track I was back then.
We had reports of...beasts, that aren't pokémon. Dangerous ones. Enough to call us in. Had no clue where they came from until the research department got a break. Wormholes. From another world. They were coming through somehow, and going on a rampage to get back home. [a humorless chuckle] It's a hell of a lot easier to believe now that we're stuck in this godforsaken world, isn't it?
