Up in the North, the ponies have successfully found who, or rather, what was damaging the mine. But their quest is not over, as they go to look for the source of the trouble. In Baltimare, Iron, Silver, and Dark Star enjoy the fruits of defeating the cultists, while Midnight herds the remaining rescues.

Silver can see his eyes, ears and head track onto the paper money as it floats through the air
"Really?! Aww, thanks!"
He seems elated, much like Keskoo was
"Just to explain this to my mother"

"We will say this is payment for doing work for me. You did do much in helping me with cart and furniture today."

"Well, you know I didn't do that much. Still though, I'll see if Rohke will sell. And I'll definitely have the money to take her out for dinner and movies these next few nights. Bet she's never seen one of those"

"That sounds like great idea for you and her to do. If I have not, then it is entirely possible she has not.
"You are good pony, Loputu. Continue being yourself, and you will get her someday."
He gives him a pat on the shoulder.
"And if you are ever in market for wingpony, I am always available."

"Well, I certainly wouldn't mind more of that" His eyes roll around, until they come back to Silver's with no smile
"Hey, I've been meaning to ask you What happened to that mare who looked just like Keskoo, but with straight hair. The one who told me she did elderly care around here? At first I confused the two of them, they looked so much alike"

He nods, though something in his expression suggests he does not entirely understand
"It seemed strange to me..."
The ponies do not have to walk very far at all before they are back on Pelican lane. Her apartment is only a few blocks away. Loputu walks up to the property, and around the building, to find Rohke Meri still working on the boat, evidently scrubbing the deck. He looks over and sees the ponies
"Where have you been? I thought you would be back hours ago"

Fantasy wakes up from her nap with a big yawn. She and her cat stretches out their limbs a bit. She pat the cat on his head, which the cat leans into.
"So let's do what we came here to do," Fantasy says.

Whether the room is a suitable alternative to Nuzzleville, only Slogo knows. But the cat seems to have the lazy indifference that characterizes feline contentedness .

Fantasy puts the map on a nearby table as she plans her trip.
First things first, I need to buy material components for my spells.
Silk, fleece, and wool should probably be found in somekind of textile store. And shouldn't be too hard to find or expensive.
Parchment should be easily found in a book store.
But where am I suppose to find a copper wire and a prism, especially prism. A copper wire could probably be found in a hardware store. but I have no idea where to find a prism.
Maybe I should ask visit the academy first so I can ask them where they buy their material components? But without material components, how can I prove to them that I'm capable?
She nods to herself.
No. They should probably have materials to spare and then they can give me advice on where to find things.
She hammers her left hoof into her right.
It's settle then. I'm going to visit the academy first.
Does this city have and magic academy were ponies can study magic?
Also, what does this mean:
An eyelash encased in a bit of gum arabic.
What is specifically gum arabic?

Gum Arabic - "a gum exuded by some kinds of acacia, used in the food industry, in glue, as the binder for watercolor paints, and in incense."
There are indeed academies in Baltimare, though it doesn't appear that any of them specialize specifically in Magic
University of Baltimare, and James Haykins seem like they each have magical divisions that can rival the Magic Schools of old

Shit, that would have been a good place for it
Then again, Fantasy Play doesn't have that as one of her skills
Either way, "University of Baltimare" and "James Haykins" would be marked on the map, and probably at least one other university

I'm sorry. I have this tendecy to ask first and search later. Could have just searched that. Sorry.
Fantasy lifts up her coin pouch, pours out bits which totals to 300, leave the rest of the bits in the pouch and places it on the bed next to the cat. She then wipe with her hoof down the coins into her saddlebag, so they lay in it loosely.
"Bye, Slogo. Gaurd that pouch with your life," she says and winks playfully at him as she exit her room.
She leaves the building and starts her journey towards the closest of the schools.

Slogo rolls over onto his back, llooking up lethargically at her. Clearly, he intends to make good on Fantasy's direction.
University of Baltimare is around Eastside near the center. James Haykins is a little North of Center. Saint Ingram is another option. University of Baltimare is the largest, and technically the closest, and it is a public school run by the Government. James Haykins is Private, and the most prestigious. It is the second closest. Saint Ingram has a prestige to itself, and is Private and Church run. It's also the furthest away

Yes. 2:12 PM.
Fantasy Play walks down a street past a few large public buildings like a library, a few office buildings, and into indefinite rows of tenement buildings and row houses. Not every street is completely clean, some with having garbage bags not yet collected, or potholes in the road, and this becomes truer the further east she goes.
But it's no more than a kilometer, if that, before she arrives at a set of blocks with big brick and stone buildings, marked as fraternity houses, or dorms. Some old buildings with class rooms, and some newer buildings with straight, concrete and glass exteriors that lack any of the charm of the older buildings. She is here

Well that's a surprising change
Fantasy Play goes back into town, to find it not that many blocks from where she is staying.
It's four stories, kind of a brownish stone facade, with a high vaulted black roof and windows that stick out with "Juliet" balconies. A set of stone steps leads up to a set of doors.
To each side of the stone steps is a pony with a green helmet, and green uniforms. And at the top of the steps, is a creature Fantasy has likely heard of, but perhaps has not seen. A minotaur of greyish fur, standing and holding some kind of black gun.

Before Fantasy goes up, she is looking down, evidently typing on a type writer, and is nearly startled when Fantasy comes up

"Uh... Nuzzleville... Right. I've heard of it" She smiles awkwardly and unconvincingly
"But... Yes. The Princess tried to protect griffins against ponies, but not her own ponies against the Changelings. So the Blackhooves political party, then and now centered in the old Equestrian Dominion of New Mareland, seized Equestrian territory before it could be conquered by the Changelings in a longer and bloodier war. Then they made a deal with the Changelings to save much of Equestria. Now it's governed as a series of Autonomous regions under Blackhooves supervision. Not all that much of a difference, really. There was one Princess, and now there is one Duke to govern us."

Silver is able to find a grocery store quickly enough - they are very common - what's harder to find are some of the spices she requested, and rice noodles. Mint and Ginger are simple enough, but what the hell even is "Lemongrass"?

Going down the road Silver finds what is clearly the location implied, which even has some goods like certain plants outside. Inside, the walls are brick, packs of fireproofing hang across metal rafters on the cieling, and the rows are packed tightly together, with plants sticking out, and absolutely no room for two ponies to walk past each other. There is an entire aisle devoted to coconuts, coconut milk, coconut cream, and other coconut products. But Silver can clearly find what appears to be large quantities of Lemongrass, spices like curry, and even rice noodles

At the counter, he finds another male Kirin - only like the sixth or so Kirin he's seen anywhere, and the fourth he's interacted with. The Kirin understands that Silver intends to purchase the items placed on the counter, and he points a hoof to the metal symbols that stick out from the register to show the cost (7 bits, if it even costs that much) and that is the extent of their ability to communicate with each other.
The store does have some other food items, if Silver were interested, like seaweed, coconuts, rice, and more coconuts

She looks unsure about how to judge Fantasy’s response
“I’m just the receptionist, if you want somepony with more knowledge...”

It’s a decent amount of groceries, but Silver is able to bring it up the stairs. He can see the two creatures outside, on the raised wooden porch next to the living room, looking out over the bay

"Ah, don't worry about it." She waves her hoof dismissively. "I probably wanna join. Do you have use for an illusionist in your ranks? You're preparing for war with the changelings again to retake Equestria, right?"
Fantasy Play polish her hoof against her coat.

Khoi has a bowl of grass, leaves, or done other sort of yard plant next to her that she seems to be eating. Jubilosa has a glass of wine and an open wine bottle next to her. They seem to be talking, and looking out over the bay.
Khoi must have heard him opening the door, because she looks back at him
>>128568
The receptionist looks at her with a skeptical expression, then pulls out a flashlight and shines it in her eyes. Fantasy Play is almost blinded by the sudden light
She pulls it down.
“The Blackhooves wish for the unification of East and West Equestria under pony rule, and wish for the return and preservation of all historically pony lands. However, the Blackhooves wish to achieve this by means of diplomacy and non-violence, with all respect for Changelingkind and their Queen, who has the only valid claim to lead Changelingkind. The New Mareland State certainly has no plans or intentions of any hostility with its Changeling neighbors.” Once she is done repeating this statement in monotone, she says
“But of course we have room for an illusionist! I’m sure Seabreeze would be happy to meet with you

Khoi stands up, and walks over towards Silver
"Now you come back"
Jubilosa tries to sit up, and look back towards Silver

"Oh? That is great!" Her mouth seems to light up in excitement as she runs forward towards the door. Then she stops, closes her eyes, and breathes in, before opening it to go through

Silver lets Khoi go inside, then he goes to Jubilosa.
"So...this is maybe weird question, but...do griffons eat meat?"

If she had a beak, she would scrunch
"We're not monsters who swipe down from the skies to pick off sheep, or foals. But we can, yes"

Silver scrunches back in embarassment and looks away for a couple seconds before looking back at Jubilosa.
"I...was not trying to imply that...I was just going to invite Mala to eat somewhere that served meat, and I was wondering if you wanted to come along...if you ate meat, that is."

"Actaully, I'm the representative of a powerful group of necromancers. We have a proposal to the Black hooves whic goes like this: You let us raise the many dead from the wars, and you let us experiment on changeling captives when we attack with our newfound undead army." Bluff: [1d20 = 16] +4
Is what I kinda wanted to post but I'll refrain frrom it because another idea popped up and it would probably derail things.
Here's her true response:
Fantasy smacks her lips then she gives the receptionist a smile.
"Well, ah. Yeah, mmm. No, this is probably my best option. Okay, I'll see this Seabreeze or yours. While you featch him, I encourage you to tell him to stallion up and make a move on you already," Fantasy says as her playful smile returns.

This makes her jump up onto her claws
“There’s meat?!?”
Then she looks over past Silver, presumably into the dining area with an “oh” expression, and says much more calmly
“Yes, I would like to go. Even if I do have to share with that creature”
>>128577
She blushes, and smiles awkwardly
“Oh... okay then. I’ll get him for you”
Just for reference sake, there is at least one guard inside of the lobby area
The mare comes back with a limping stallion. He looks to be 30 or so, likely older, and is a unicorn with a dark blue coat, a green uniform, an even darker mane and light yellow eyes. But that isn’t the first thing you’d notice about him. His horn is cracked, and has a silver cap. His right foreleg and hind leg are entirely gone, all the way up to his upper thigh, replaced with wood and metal prosthetics that let him sort of limp around. His right cutie mark is entirely gone, with just scarred pink skin in its place
“Hello there, missie” he says with some kind of accent

Silver is a little sad at the reference to Mala, but he smiles at her.
"I suppose we should buy some meat for you if we find some for sale...as well as some more wine."

I recommend a dry red like a merlot or cabernet sauvignon to go with meat, though for a white meat like chicken even chardonnay works well

As she stands up, she is clearly smiling, and her wings unfold in part as she walks back around
“Oh yes! I haven’t had mutton in a while... I do feel sorry for Khoi though. She seems to want to make dinner. Although I’m not sure she and I are on the same page about what is edible...”

"Well, we can go out to eat with Mala, then be back here to be able to enjoy some of Khoi's Ngua Nam cooking. Sound like good plan?"

Jubilosa stretches out her body, including especially her rear paws. She really does look like a long and slender cat. Then she stretches out each wing. First her left, then she closes that, and stretches out her right. Long, mostly white feathers on a brown wing. Each wing is rather long, longer even than a pegasi's.
"Alright. I'll try not to eat too much, but I really am hungry"
>>128584
"Well" He offers a hoof, his left hoof to shake
"Why don't you come in and tell me a bit about yourself. Of course we accept new members, if we believe we can trust you"

The unicorn can't help but appreciate the elegance and grace of the griffon form before him. He snaps out of it after a couple seconds, and smiles at her.
"Alright, let us go."
He heads inside to leave out the front door, waving at Khoi and letting them know they'll be back for dinner.

She doesn't seem to mind Silver looking at her in that sort of way, judging from how he looks at her. She tucks her wings back in place, and follows him
"Alright"
Khoi is already cutting vegetables with a long knife. Even if some of her ingredients are unfamiliar to Silver, her selection of vegan ingredients still seems to have some appeal (or at least, would to the average pony). She looks confused and almost distressed that the two are leaving now
"You are leaving?"
But she backs off
"Very well. This will be ready"

He takes her down a hall, into a room, alone with him. It's not a very long walk. When they get inside, it is obviously a hotel room, or at least, once was. But there is no bed there. Rather a set of chairs, and a table. He wobbles over at the slow paced speed of the disabled, and sits in a chair across from her.
"So. You are looking to join, you say? Why?"
>>128589
She almost seems to grab his foreleg, but then refrains
Silver finds that for all that Cherry Hill has to offer, a large number of taxis is not one of them. But he is able to walk down a couple blocks, and a taxi drives by them, which they hail. A young pegasus drives.
