Welcome back to the Latest Thread of Occupied Equestria

Onyx, Spark and Brie settle down for the night in a cabin in the woods along with a set of recently rescued ponies, saved from Changeling cocoons, as well as the changelings who sought to take them captive, who are themselves locked away as captives.

In Baltimare, Silver, Dark Star, Iron, and now Midnight Lily do their last preparations before seeking to take on a creature smuggling operation in a port-side neighborhood

Alright....

Iron Midnight leave from the loading bay, going past the door to the right, the ramp down to the left, and the door in front and to the left, closing instead to go down a ramp that leads into a small tunnel going straight ahead. It has a flat concrete surface, brick walls, and an arched ceiling,l. It looks wide enough for a cart to just barely maneuver, and precedes straight from the loading bay has be hundred feet or more, illuminated by spaced incandescent electrical lights that just barely light the brick hallway. This goes past a door, and into a room that bulges out. The room has a drain on the floor, and a number of steel cylinders four or five feet in diameter that have knobs and seem to be done kind of machine. In the hallway is a metal cart with a big open rectangle that was found to contain articles of white clothing when Iron inspected it. The sounds of the machines can be hear long before the two arrive, and hides the sounds of a griffin who approaches from the left, from a different, smaller hall

Alright... as Midnight has chosen to be found...

The griffin comes out slowly. She wears some kind of white cover on her front, but is otherwise unclothed, and has white feathers with black ends, and a soft but dull lion coat on her main body. She is fairly small, yet still as big as Midnight as Griffins tend to be. She is at first kind of lazy in her approach, but when she sees Midnight, she reacts with fear, throwing her wings over her beak and widening her eyes

The griffin goes ahead in front of Midnight, but looks back to watch her occasionally
“This way”
She goes forward, and leads into a room with a couple other carts and folded clothing, then a ramp going up to the first level off to the right then turning right again. This goes out a big door into what must be the first floor. The hallway goes each way, and has a couple big doors branching off. The walls are painted white, the floor is a number of 1 foot by 1 foot square tiles that are a brownish black in color

It is an inelegantly constructed room. The walls are naked brick of a variety with a distinct brown and yellow hue. The floor is bare concrete, and the most complication comes from a single vent that blows in warmer air, and electric lights with naked cables. Inside the room there are a couple bins, containing mostly folded cloths, and a couple tables with clothes on them. Clothes are mostly simple woven, although there are some fancier coats and robes (probably wool), which are hung up on a rack. Towels are undyed white cotton.

Iron nods to himself.
(This seems like useful information.)
He glances around for any sort of reliable and quiet method for carrying around folded clothes.
Technically, Iron can probably take those boxes without issue, but it's going to look conspicuous.
