[attr="class","dfbox"] "oi, kyle-idjit!" he exclaimed as loud as he could, a raspy voice crying from within the dragon den. a male approached toward the entrance, having emerged from the shadowy depths of the cave. deep inside, behind mateo, there were uttering cries of the dragon's den. as mateo came out to find that there was a trainer looking to partake within the trial of dragons. the trainer, in question, immediately caused mateo to conjure a stunning grin of excitement, "i can't believe you're finally here to get your dragon! i'm so proud of you, kyle!" it was Kyle Lee. kyle, at first sight of his leade, saw not a gym leader but the dragon den's guardian. for today's wear this would be the first time mateo having seen his leader adorning the ceremonial garb. mateo, grinning with glee, wore the following clothing: a black robe called a koromo , which is a type of osode, where, over it, he, too, wore a purple sash above the koromo. the sash itself could be seen wrapped around his body and over his left shoulder, which is called a kesa. following for footwear he would also adorn upon his feet a pair of waraji sandals. on his left hand one could see that mateo, too, wore what looked to have been a flap of cloth over the left palm and the back of his hand, secured by a ring over his middle finger, and a piece of heavier material wrapped once around his forearm and tied on the underside of his arm; this is known as a tekkou. to tie the ceremonial clothing together. one would notice that, around his left palm, is a ring of prayer beads.


and so, he'd then tell the male to follow him with a nonchalant gesture. "alright, kyle, follow me this way! this is your first time being here right-right?! i can't wait to see what type of dragon will come your way!" rubbing the palm of his hands as one, his jovial expression never wavered once, he'd look back to make sure that he was paying attention. had he not been paying attention, mateo would not hesitate to remove his right sandal in order to give kyle a nice, whopping smack atop of his dome. "oi, idjit! make sure you're paying attention!" mateo would say, if he weren't paying attention, as they'd come to a halt. beyond their positioning, the cavern, during their walk before their halt, had been lit by a blue sphere of light on both the right and left side when each step was taken further into the cavern. during their halt, they'd come to reach a lake that led into a deeper part of the cave.

upon first look the lake would illuminate a radiant glow, the light from the sphere's attached to the walls causing it to refract. and as the was glistening in a hue of blue light, before them resided a boat. though they wouldn't be taking it at this time; but instead, he'd simply extend the right palm of his hand to one side and his other to another. "i'm gonna have you stay right here for a little bit. you don't have to do anything, just let them come to you. should one be attracted to you, be it scent or other, its your job to form the bond. i simply play my role as the guardian." mateo nodded repetitively, arms folded as a look of pride had been worn for his expression. "oh! here," reaching into the right sleeve of his garb, he'd toss the male an empty ball capsule, "you'll use that to capture the dragon. remember, gym trainer, even though we haven't been together for too long. don't let me down and find your fated dragon!" mateo told kyle, his left hand offering the male a thumb's up.
