Elyriah looks at the portal, and remembers what has happened in the past, the times that had gone a long time ago… Back then, everything was peaceful, Elyriah had a happy life, with a happy family. Elyriah was always an adventurous little fellow, always ready to take unnecessary risks to satisfy their curiousity. But everything had changed on that fateful day… Elyriah heard a pokemon training nearby while they were playing with their friends, and decided to investigate. They saw a Dark Ralts practicing her attacks against a tree. Elyriah was very young back then, and decided to check it out. They popped out of the shrub they were hiding in, and Elyriah waved to the Ralts in a greeting. The Ralts waved back, and continued training. Elyriah was going to talk to her, but they heard a noise from behind them. Suddenly, a portal opened below Elyriah, and they fell. Elyriah landed on a mountain, and crushed their right arm in the process. It was entirely limp and not working. They looked up, and saw the Dark Realm through the portal, before it closed. Elyriah did not know what pokemon would do such a thing, but they had other priorities to deal with: their arm, now unable to be used. (It's so hard to write without revealing Elyriah's gender, and also Elyriah's backstory is way too long, like seven pages long, so I'm putting them in fragments which Elyriah would remember over time.)
