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

That would be an easier task if he were in a savannah or prairie, and not one of the most densely populated square miles of land in the biggest city in the entire southeastern region of Equestria.

There are some areas in the surrounding ground that offer some room to try to hid things, for instance, a ditch that goes through the property, and a few bushes, but the lack of leaves on trees does Iron no favors, and certainly there is no ground to hide an entire laundry cart

He looks at Midnight.
"Take out the clothing in the cart and place it in the bushes. We should have time before they come here again."
He unlatches himself from the cart and proceeds to do what he said.

It’s polished steel, probably chrome plated or stainless, and slightly reflective. It has eight fairly straight “rays,” possibly arms or legs, that lean forward clockwise as they spread away from the small circular origin, and have little hooks on the end that point the opposite direction. Almost like like claws on legs, though they don’t seem to directly represent such. The decorative object is simply hung from a nail, and there is nothing behind it

Inside the kitchen, a pot remains uncleared, if empty, with little bits of red and brown substance on the edges. The oven is off, but has a smell to it of recently cooked grain items. A couple bits of food materials are still out, most notably the outer parts of an onion. There are some knives - mostly placed away - a kitten on a table, and some other items from what seems to be recent cooking. A sink has several pots and pans in it, and there is a large stack of dishes at least five high
