Welcome back to Occupied Equestria

Dark Star, Silver, Iron, and Midnight continue their investigation and hopefully, the take down of a group of organized criminals who have taken up operations at an old fortress on the sea shore. They have already rescued a number of creatures and persuaded them to join in their efforts. Now, they most hope that they can strike with enough force, and quickly enough, to destroy the evil that has taken up residence there.

Up in the North, the ponies are waking up, ready for a new day

Iron can't process the metaphor he inadvertly placed on the table, giving her a blank, confused look before shaking his head.

She nods to him, slowly, and develops a sly grin. She stands there at first, doing nothing, until it happens that Mala turns his head. Then she slowly, casually, walks back around Mala, slowly placing her hooves down, and doing so by pressing down the tip of the hoof before the remainder. She walks around him to his left side, stands there for a second, then lifts a hoof up and

*tap*

"Whoop!"
Mala runs forward several feet, then looks back at what startled him

Sneaky reference to the building's previous nature.
Iron nods, smiling.
"Good. We need to find a particular spot where all of us can hide in so we can all form an ambush area. Could you point me where that place could be?"

Knowing most weapons are melee oriented if stealth is wanted, Iron formulates his plan.
"I want to catch unawares any guard or griffon that patrols or simply strolls around the hallways without a care in the world. Preferrably, it should be at a distance where melee weapons can be effective without them alerting the others."
Not to mention maybe having to separate into groups~

“And you want to.... do what with them?”

Blue Skies, the eternal eavesdropper, adds a comment of her own,
“According to the design information, there should be a second floor railing that would overlook the ground floor. Same with the third floor”

Iron shrugs.
"Thin their numbers to make fighting the rest easier."
He nods at Skies' comment.
"I assume that could be useful if we wanted to pick targets off at range. Maybe you and Sands could open fire when the guards are alerted of the melee ponies' presence, but I need both of your cunning to properly set the others up in good ambush locations."

“If you knew where you wanted the sword fighters, and you had bow mares at range in protected areas, that could help take on many of them”

She smiles
“Of course if you want to take them out one by one, I may be able to help...”
It’s not clear if Skies, with the body of a griffin, is exceptionally physically attractive by griffin standards or not, but something in her smile suggests she could milk it for all it’s worth

Iron strokes his chin for a bit.
"Alright. You convinced me, but do not start just yet. I still need to find a good spot for you to lure griffons into."
He decides to look around the hallways for any spare rooms, corners and furniture to set up a good ambushing position near him.

(Maybe this will be the most spacious and filled with hiding spots for an ambush.)

Not empty, just not full of tall grass or jugle brush that would allow ambushes

The bedroom has the bed itself, maybe a dresser or curtains, but in general is mostly open and makes jumping out difficult

Iron huffs in apparent frustration, hoping that maybe the storage closet has a lot more places to hide.
(Who knows? Maybe the bathrooms are the best spot to ambush on.)

The closet, likewise, has a simple layout. Certainly one can pop out. What is harder, is getting someone in the room, while hiding somewhere else in the room, without the new entrant knowing the other is hiding elsewhere in the same room. Most of these designs are too simple to enable that, except maybe minor furniture like desks

Now this is a more complex structure. It has closed stalls off to the left with sinks on the far side, and over to the right are public shower spaces, including white plastic curtains

"I mean... There's standing space"
The curtains are translucent, and allow a silhouette to be seen on the other side when close, but they are harder to see when standing further away from the curtain
