Humming deeply, he turns to Skies, hoofing over his flashlight
"Hold this for me. I'm opening up a path."
With that, he places his hindlegs in the optimal bucking position, hooves lightly trailing the ground in search for leverage as his back properly accomodates the upcoming action.
First, he attempts an accurate buck to test the strength of this hollow wall.

"If you would be willing to wait little bit longer, or else come with us, we will see what can be done about getting you processed through Customs, get you sent back to Western Equestria through official channels. That might calm at least some fears of my comrades."

This is the circumstance I feel that Dark Star's input is most missed. Maybe he'd be fine with just deporting the Changeling Succubus. Maybe he'd interrogate her more and ask her more questions. Maybe he'd blow her head off then and there. Maybe he's draft her into a small army, composed of all of the creatures the Maakie and his henchgriffins have ever oppressed and pissed off, which he'd lead in a pitched battle against them. But I know he'd have a strongly worded and asserted opinion on the matter

He has difficulty placing it precisely, but as best as he can tell from depiction in a radio broadcast he heard a while ago, it’s an accent of the Northern Ponies, particularly of Griffonia
She snaps her tail
“How could I know? I don’t exactly get days and nights down here. It must have been months. How are you ponies holding off the invasion, by the way?”

He looks over briefly, then a way, and he opens his mouth as if to say something. For more than a moment, the words evade him, and whatever he wanted to say he fails to say it.
After a while, he conquers whatever was inhibiting him, and speaks in a set of words that are fast and forced, as if he has given up hope of the words having impact, and now hopes only that they are heard at all
“She was caged here, you know? She collaborated with them to be sure, but... it’s easy to collaborate when you’re kind of forced to”
>>116338
“Completely? I don’t know. I don’t imagine many. They always found a few drops more could come out even when it seemed the last bits were gone. That’s why they kept the cocoons here.”

She looks way, and answers almost indifferently
“That they were cruel. Even by pony standards. They saw these creatures as completely disposable to them. They thought of me as a machine to extract magic from any number of creatures I never knew existed, and to make into honey. They would force feed me, make me cocoon prey. I don’t think they really understood the process. They didn't understand that a creature must find something it loves to be harvested effectively. I don’t think they really cared. They wanted to honey. I suspect they had other uses for these creatures. Conditions are horrible here. Always trapped in this tiny cell. No room to move. I cannot fly. None of my brothers or sisters to see or talk to. A dim, obnoxious yellow light that’s on almost all hours of the day, and total darkness when it isn’t. They chain me down with multiple restraints that ache and chafe. They won’t come near me without sone kind of magical inhibitor - they know better than to do that. There is nothing to do all day. Endless boredom. Not even tiles on the ceiling to count. The temperature is never right, always too hot or too cold. It’s too moist.”
She looks down to the floor
“And then they force me to regurgitate honey... I don’t want to, but if I don’t they will shock me, so I do it without being told now. But they often don’t believe me and shock me again...”

“ they extracted her. What else?”
he creature - Zwolf - comes closer towards the bar, standing up, and walking forward, low to the ground, in a manner almost like a stalking lion. She has a big, malign grin on her face that shows off her fangs - not to imply those could be hidden.

Mala looks as if he's suffering something along the lines of stage fright, or fear of public speaking. He opens his mouth, lets out some sound, looks away, quickly looks back to Silver, then looks away, swallows, and then speaks to his audience of one pony:
"I-I came to Equestria when I was a cub. maybe four. My father disappeared, or left maybe a year later. I don't actually know what happened. My mother was strong, assertive. But some times she got frustrated. She got angry. And then some years ago, she got melancholia... It was hard. I got a job and lost it. Mom died... I lost the studio apartment. I was homeless for a while. I found the three gnolls. I had seen them before, during that time I went to school. But they let me do work, and it seemed like a good thing. I had food. Somewhere to sleep where the wind did not blow."
At this point, he looks on into the distance, and tilts his head, in evident contemplation

She comes closer to the bars on the door of the cage, closer than she likely could have gone with the restraints she wore before, and she walks with her shoulders pushed to the side and her body kind of low to the ground, like a stalking cat. She has a big, malign grin on her face that shows off her fangs - not to imply those could be hidden.
“Tell me, pony, how many creatures have you drained the life completely out of?”

"I am still in shock over all of this. I cannot make big decisions yet."

She comes even closer, right up to the bars. Mala, who unlike Khoi Lua, has not shown any strong desire to keep his distance from the changeling, now backs a foot away.
"Then consider us the same" She says

"Understandable, given circumstances. We shall focus on here-and-now for now."
Silver watches the back and forth going on between Star and Zwolf.

"My actions? When I was free, I did nothing other than take love from those far too willing to give it out of wedlock. They were looking for loose mares. If they had listened to their elders, they never would have been vulnerable. And here, well, I am a captive. If anything, I am more of a captive. I've done no more than the hyena has done, and they don't need to electro-shock him to make him do it."

Khoi Lua seems unsettled by the hole-ridden creature in the cage. She stays on the other side of Silver away from the cage. Mala seems more accustomed to the creature, and in any case less afraid. But he keeps a set distance between he and the creature, back up when she comes closer.
>>116404
“I am subversive? Degenerate? Quite the opposite. I can only harm degenerates, and when they are degenerate. I help to enforce moral behavior. Not unlike how I imagine you are an enforcer.”

She continues with a big grin, and cones up slightly placing a black leg through the bars
“If all I’ve done is convince you of my skill... are you sure you have no use for me? If you’re after these drug manufactures it seems you could use some help.”

"There is no other species as skilled at deception, stealth, and subterfuge, her ability to drain life energy would be very valuable utility in combat, and she has already demonstrated she is skilled orator. And, if she will forgive me for assuming, I imagine there are some Griffins she would very much like to 're-introduce' herself to."

"It would be suicide to try to attack us, and it is too dangers to try to go it alone. Besides all of that, she has not given me reason not to trust her. I am willing to trust her if she is willing to trust us."

“Well, I’m not going anywhere without you, am I? And be assured that, however bad of an impression our brief acquaintance has left upon me tonight, my experiences with this dungeon’s owners have left an impression far deeper and stronger”
She turns to her side. On her emaciated barrel there is an area of black chitin stained a deep blue color.

Khoi Lua is the female Kirin. Mala is the male gnoll

Glad I was wrong, tho. Can't wait to know her skills.

Maybe~
Don't worry. Iron doesn't have the guts to commit yet. Most likely he'll offer a better paying job working for him instead of asking her out on the spot, rutting her into bliss and getting a restraining order after the fact.
Maybe I could sink into the mademare business. That should be a good goal for easier waifu harvesting and nurturing. Iron would make a good manager, me thinks.

Since the matter seems to have been decided, be unlocks and opens the door. He places his trust in her to not bite him.
Heal: [1d20+7 = 25]
Silver attempts to diagnose and, if possible, treat her injury.

The door opens, and leaves the exposed creature there standing upright, nothing separating the two of them.
She continues standing there, but both Mala and Khoi take several steps back. Silver can see the wounded area in more detail, or rather a set of smaller discolored areas, some of which have coalesced into one larger discoloration. Part of the dislocation appears to be electrical burns, similar to what was previous seen on Kerr and Wesley. Some of the discoloration, including discoloration on the legs and neck, are bruises. The bleeding of blue blood under the layers of chitin gives the black chitin a bluish color. Silver cannot do much, but he can add some cream to bruises and burns, and cover them in simple medical cloth

Сволочи! He is silently yet visibly fuming, recognizing the types of burns and bruises, and recognizing their origin. He does what he little he can, thankful at least he can do something. "There. I am sorry I can not do more to help, but only time and rest can heal these wounds."

She smiles. Not maliciously. Almost smuggly.
“A true Gentlepony. Thank you.”
She steps out of the cage, back into the long, slender room

Mala calmly, slowly, points his head to the right, and tilts it
“Deeper inside the structure”
Mala does not trail off on his sentence before a pause in his speech
“You will not like what you find”

Well, I'm ready to proceed. Just waiting on Dark Star, now.

Male looks at him with solemn brown eyes, and slowly shakes his head to Silver, as if to say “No. you don’t”
>>116443
He turns his head away slightly, slowly, then nods slowly. It seems as if Dark Star’s answer has him concerned

When the door is opened, it reveals a large room with tan mortar walls and some brick archways that is more empty than occupied. But over to the left is a griffin, brown and white, and off to the right side is a smaller animal cage with what looks like a pony inside

The Room is more or less clear, except for a griffin, looks to be female and tied down on the right rear leg, and an older colt in a relatively small animal cage on the right side.
The room looks relatively more modern, and from its rectangular design, does not seem to have been constructed with a specialized purpose

He looks up at Dark Star with soft, purple eyes the shade of lavender petals. His fur is a deep blue, almost liquorish color, and it shimmers in a way similar to a Crystal Pony. His dark grey mane has a vague purplish hue, and is tied up, as is his tail, in a single bundle. He appears to be adolescence aged, some years, but not that many years, younger than Dark Star. He pauses for more than a moment, then answers
“I am... born in Bluffhead... but I live in Baltimare”

The GM is more than welcome to correct me if it is, but I think a 16 would pass either way.
