”What is this?”
Emil held the object infront of Mikkel and the older man smiled.
”That's a Nokia.”
”Don't be stupid, Nokia makes wheels, this isn't a wheel.”
”No, it's a phone. Nokia used to make phones as well.”
”That sounds weird.” Emil pressed some buttons on it. ”Think it works?”
”After 90 years out here? That is highly unlikely.”
The phone in Emil's hands gave a soft sound as it sprung to life. Emil grinned towards Mikkel, and quickly jumped away as the larger man leaned down to take the phone from him. He proceeded to settle down behind a desk to check out his find.
”Emil, you will not find any use for it.”
”What do you know? Look, there's something here! Pokémon Go? Hey, what's a pokémon?”
”Some kind of animal from the old world.”
Emil peeked over the desk at Mikkel, then hid again, looking at his phone.
”There's one right next to you!”
”There is nothing next to me. Emil, we should continue with our mission and not let ourselves get sidetracked.”
”You're one to talk!”
Emil closed the phone, let it slid down into his pocket, and went up to help Mikkel.
Sigrun ducked under the troll's arm, prepared to attack it from behind, but was grabbed and slung into the wall. She called out for her right hand warrior, but no answer.
”Emil, get your butt here and help!”
The troll pulled her out from the wall and prepared to throw her into it again.
”In a minute, there's a Pidgey here!”
The troll stopped and Sigrun hung from it's hand, flailed her arms.
”I don't know what a pidgey is but you should forge-”
Sigrun's head hit the floor and the troll stepped over her.
”Emil! It's coming!”
”I said 'in a minute'!”
”A PidGEy yOu SaY?”
Emil froze. The troll breathed down his neck, peered over his shoulder.
”YoU nEeD to THrOw tHe bALl. LIkE ThiS.”
The troll stretched its arm out, pressed a gross, half-rotten finger towards the screen and flicked. Emil watched as the red and white ball landed on the virtual bird's head and then the bird was caught.
”Yessss!”
Emil turned around, high-fived the troll. The troll smiled.
”I RemEMbEr tHat gAMe. GreAT FuN.”
Emil looked at the troll, looked at the phone.
”Do you... wanna catch more?”
”I'D bE DelIghTEd To! CoME on NoW, YouNGliNg, Let'S Not DilLY-daLLy HerE.”
Emil smiled apologetically towards Sigrun, before the troll pushed him away, out of the building. Sigrun stared after them, stomped the floor.
”That is NOT how you defeat a troll, Emil!”
Emil couldn't hear her.
There are several ways to defeat a troll. Most of them includes different ways to sever its head from its body. While searching the old world for books, Emil found a better way.
Emil found Pokémon Go.
