Along the shores of Baltimare Harbor, in the halls of old 33 Hoebuck, our heroes have discovered a dark secret. What started as a mundane mission to stop illegal immigrant smuggling has uncovered something far more horrific - a cult from Griffonia. The party has successfully challenged and defeated many of the cultists and hired criminals, but in the process, has nearly died themselves. Now, low on health, they must both recover and put an end to the evils in 33 Hoebuck once and for all - before it puts an end to them first.

Way up north, in the Iron Range of Whinnysota, the ponies their inquire into exact who or what is damaging so many machines. Investigating and following leads, they may unveil the faults and problems of the Haysabi Iron Mine, and gain favor with Changeling authorities.

Damn it, I missed 123,000

Looking over back to the scene, the gun fire has cooled somewhat. The guards around Zu Lang seem to have remembered they could fly, and in any case take interest neither in Brie nor the Owl Bear.

One of the guards by the Pit continues shooting at the horrid owl bear creature, while another stares back in silence at Zu Lang, who had been barking orders until Brie attacked. The third looks at the ponies in the pit, afraid of being back stabbed by the ponies, and afraid of transgressing against Zu Lang's orders

Drie, the Lieutenant, has collapsed. His right leg was always weak and shaky, but the fear, the sounds, and the anxiety have induced some kind of breakdown, something between PTSD and a stimulation of damage done to his body during the war or after. He lays down on the ground in something like an epileptic fit. His companion lays down next to him, switching between tending to his disabled companion, and shooting back at the owl bear monster.

Iron continues to stretch his legs outwards, planting his wide snout onto the wall, unfortunately causing his entire body to shiver strongly at the touch before letting out another groan.

The mostly smooth white washed wall has just enough tiny bumps and inconsistencies to make rubbing soft body parts, like his snout, against it unpleasant.

Meadows looks quite a bit stronger than she did before. Though earlier she looked like she was barely able to stand. Now, she looks like she could jump and prance, if only given the room

Undertoe is wearing her black socks again, and she has one of Iron's rifles swung around her shoulders. Her gold chain has been removed from her neck and is now placed around the rifle.

Iron blinks softly, seeing the room around him in mild confusion and bewilderment, particularly at the rifle on Undertoe's neck.
(I will have to take it back when the job's done,) he thinks to himself
Nodding at Sands' statement, he turns to Khoi. "Indeed," he answers plainly "was there ever any doubt?" Opting to press onto the unicorn's body in feigned dizziness with his, he looks at the kirin. "I am invincible," he lets out happily and with pride.

Iron presses into the fluffy unicorn, finding her body almost surprisingly soft as it gives way and moves back slighty against him. White Sands smiles

The Kirin forms part of a smile - something he's not sure she's seen him do - and responds
"Let us hope so. You have taken quite a beating, but have given more out. They say there are still more of these monsters. Let us put an end to them. May tonight be the last time they every prey upon the unfortunate"

As Iron rubs coats with the unicorn mare it's almost like an elephant against a tree. She wobbles a little, as she is not that much more than half of Iron's mass, but she still stands about as firm as she can, and her smile turns a little more devious as Iron progresses. Her coat is longer, fluffier even, than the average pony.

Khoi talks to Iron again, her voice softening a bit
"I had hoped to find peace when I came here. I hope I will find it soon enough"

"Well... I didn't see him that often. But I saw him regularly. I think he had a place in town. He would visit here to see what was going on. He thought of himself as a businessgriff. He thought of what was going on here as a sort of business. He looked down on the Waterfront gang in the city as being unrefined. He wanted to be respected. He could be arrogant. He could be ruthless... very, very ruthless. He wasn't really nice to me, when he acknowledged me at all. But I am lower caste, so I understand that. But he respected Mohlokomeli and how she ran things, so I know he could be nice to subordinates who pleased him. He did complement me twice though, I remember that.

He could be pretty resourceful, and pretty efficient. He found ways to get past setbacks like the War cutting off shipping routes. But he got frustrated as well, like when the harbor was closed off in the siege. He is clever, and it showed the most with his ability to work with shipping and with companies in the city. I don't know that much about his history. I know he was in the Navy, he talked about a place called Nova Griffonia where he worked. He preferred Zebras and especially gnolls as his guards and workers. He thought we had more spirit than griffins, and especially ponies.

He was never a part of the society, but he was always sort of a part of it. I think he shared some of their beliefs and practices. It just wasn't what he was here for. He respected his Suzerain, the landlord, very much. To him, the Suzerain had much of want he wanted. Respect within the city as a business pony, and wealth. But that was not what the Suzerain was after..."

"I... I think so. That names sounds right, or it was something that sounds like "book" anyways. I don't quite know what he was after. It was something about the divine, I think. Something above creatures, or maybe knowledge. I could never really get into it... or appreciate it. Rêwîtiyek, the Kafkar who died, even joined the society, saying there were great things out there. I thought about it......

The Suzerain could be friendly, in the way that ponies often are. He would even be nice to me, sometimes. Very few ponies were ever as nice to me as he was. But he was less so when my place in my master's guard was established, though he still wanted me to join the society. Still, it always seemed like he didn't care for creatures too much. He had a slight respect for my master. But it's like if you think a sword is good or whip is useful. Like a tool. If he doesn't trust you well he will be guarded, and even those he does he always has a kind of indifference towards. When almost half the heartlanders died in the battle he was just angry that ships to bring in more were blocked. I imagine most rich ponies and other creatures are like that. They are at the top. They don't have to work for or please any other creature. They don't really need to care about much else.... except for what is above them, and it isn't a pony or griffin."

"I understand your concerns, trust me. He did not just tell us...he has shown us what they have had him do in their employ. He has expressed remorse for his part in this, and has done nothing to hinder our efforts thus far."

He lowers his voice, so that only they can hear.

"I ask you to give him chance. From personal experience he is not like other gnolls we have already met. But...if he does turn out to be lying and turns against us, do not worry. I will deal with it."

Undertoe and Meadows ease up a little, more so Meadows, whose mouth eases up at the plea for forgiveness. Undertoe maintains a stern look, but does not press. She nods slightly and slowly at the reassurance that Silver will deal with traitors.

Khoi - who was not one of the two to come up, but seems to have followed in notice of the activity, interjects her own concerns:
"Did you hear him talk about the monsters? All sorts of concern for who was 'mean' to him. Not a single word about the many who were tricked, exploited, murdered. Eaten. Shows his concerns."

He smiles awkwardly at Khoi.

"Well, he did just go from serving these griffons, to fighting against them. Please, give him chance and some time. He did show remorse at what he did after showing us garbage chute...speaking of, I do not see what would be purpose of showing it to us if he was just going to turn."

She breathes and looks sharply at him
"... He did fight against those griffins back there. I am not sure I quite like him. he has terrible bloodlust, when he gets into it"

Undertoe to Khoi
"That's true of many males"

He gives them a sheepish look.

"It is little unsettling, yes, but it is part of being gnoll, good or bad, sort of like your, err..." Silver struggles for a couple seconds, not knowing the particular name for a kirin's nirik form, "...flamey transformation, Khoi. It is not as if he can not control it, though. He did not attack any allies, only enemies."

Khoi continues her skeptical look. Until Silver mentions the Nirik form. She almost literally backs off at that, moving a hoof back, and instantly softening her lips and eyes.

Khoi:
"Alright then... So long as his teeth and sword are against the monsters here, and not against us, I can accept it."

Meadows gives her own statement
"Kaftar don't have a good reputation, especially where I come from, and for good reason. But I can... I can understand working with evil for self preservation. I can forgive. And I can give him a chance."

Undertoe is not quite as disarmed as the other two, but she has her own words:
"So long as he gets what is coming to him if he turns against us, I can make myself okay with it"

Meadows is the first to move, pulling back, and going towards the other side. Khoi pulls back, and goes closer towards Jubilosa. Undertoe keeps up her guarded stance, and seems to wait for Silver to pull back himself

"Are you two doing alright?"

Khoi:
"I am ready to be done with the fighting. It's more of a struggle than I thought it would be, coming here. And still there is so much left to do..."

Jubilosa is visibly shaking, with shrunken pupils
"Fine. Everything's fine"

Sense Motive: Khoi's reaction is to be expected, but Jubilosa's just seems...weird. He asks again.

"Are you sure? You know you can come to me if something is wrong."

"Nerves got to her. She was courageous, very much so, earlier. She wanted to prove Griffins could fight against evil too. She took a blade fairly well. But the battle against the criminals in the room got to her."

Silver looks back to Jubilosa sympatheticly.

"Ah...yes, Khoi is right. You were very couragous earlier, Jubilosa."

He smiles at her.

"I understand how hard this is. If you need to take step back, away from upcoming fight, please do so. Your wellbeing is important."

She pulls her cheeks back behind her beak in what is evidently the griffin equivalent of a smile
"uh hehe" she giggles nervously, and looks back to him with small pupils

"No... I can... hold our own"

He looks at her sternly.

"Are you certain you can handle it? We are like chain: if one of us breaks, we will all suffer for it."

His gaze softens, and he smiles at her.

"But I am mostly concerned for you, Jubilosa. I do not want something bad happening to you."

She is silent. Then she looks back to him. Silently. She opens her beak, as if to speak. But she closes it. And she is left silently there, looking back to Silver

One of Silver's ears fall to the side of his head, and he tilts it in confusion.
