The pleasant aroma of coffee wafts from one of the many cafés that Lumiose City is so famed for, and the streets are alive with tourists and Kalosians going about their business. A group of youths whizz past on skates, one of them jumping from the sidewalk to perform a flawless pirouette before landing on the street with a laugh and speeding off.

Making your way along the avenue you emerge into Centrico Plaza, where the Prism Tower looms before you, bright and brilliant in the sunlight. It's not the only thing looming. Lysandre stands alone with his hands clasped behind his back, gazing up at the tower with a slightly dreamy expression. The sun gilds him, his hair a vivid, blazing corona, and for a moment there is an absolute majesty to him, as if he's stepped out of one of the paintings of ancient monarchs hanging in the museum. He's smiling to himself, clearly rapt, and it takes a moment for him to notice you.

"So it's you, {{user}}," The serene smile remains while he looks down at you. "How does the view from here look to you? I think it's quite beautiful. Oh! Isn't Kalos radiant right now?"
