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.

This room is more or less the same layout, even as it looks lived in. There is a shirt on the floor, and the covers are pulled down on the bed, which looks disrupted

Midnight turns around and nods towards the bed
"You may have it Mala"
She smiles, but her eyelids are drooping at this point.

His ear twitches, and a hind leg scratches against the bed. He sticks out his tongue again in a sort of blep. He lets out a sighing whimper

>>127024
“It is not too bad, no. That griffin is quite the charmer” he smiles in a sort of mischevious way
“Even if she is rather obstinate”

He relaxes his pose somewhat
“It is not very different from the taverns in Griffienhiem, although it’s a little bigger”

The plan is,... excuse me.
"The plan is, we make up to the mining site all ready and carefully, and then stab whatever rears at us! Then we take very careful notes and compile it all together! Then, we take those compiled notes and place them in a professional-looking clear plastic binder!"

Seb and Fun come out of the carriage. or they seem to at least, as big Saint Bernard dogs.

Brie may take note that while Zu Lang and Drie probably did not write down their exact misadventures, there are definite records of at least casualty reports

Macrurus is the name of Zu Lang's replacement I think he did mention it?

>>127040
Looking into the reports, Brie can see that the garisson did indeed report a number of Killed in action deaths in July - it says against "hold outs to changling rule," a death to wounds in August, and two deaths there after, one from being "crushed by mining equipment," and one from illness. Four drones have been sent back to Winnyapolis for wounds, two in July, and two in the fall and winter. One of those moved for wounds in July came back, the other was discharged. One of the serious wounds in september was reported as "from a chainsaw" and resulted in the drone being discharged.

Reports sent back suggest as follows:

A native tribe that predates the Crystal Empire resides in the northern parts of Headwater County. After being beaten into submission by the Equestrian, and later Crystal empires, it used the opportunity to declare independence and venture South during the war. Wanting to clear the woods of any possible bitter-enders or rebels, the garrison ventured to the north, encountering the natives. The engagements were bloody and inconclusive, but resulted in the garrison staying around the Iron mines while the natives withdrew to the North. Zu Lang, naturally, suspected that rebels, runaways, bitter-enders, or poachers are living in the forest wilds, although this cannot be confirmed. Interestingly, there is no accusation - even by Zu Lang - that the natives are aligned with any faction

Assuming you mean the exact area where Brie watched them transform, that would be on the roadway that runs beside the open pit mine beside the railroad tracks, and between Blackwood and the Taconite mill

No, I mean that Brie's whole purpose of talking to Macrurus was to try and determine where Lang and co might have turned 'funny' and then investigate that location. I had assumed it might be in some way indicated on the map

Brie wants to talk to the medical drone he talked to earlier. He seemed like he would have noticed the change sooner anyway, and might be able to more readily differentiate the mission that might have caused the change.

Yes

Don't get infected

>>127048
Translated into Ponish, he says as follows:
"The first time we think they ever turned was on July 29. We don't know the trigger, we think it was stress, but it would only happen at Night. We never found the trigger, actually. Exactly how and when they got... 'infected,' I do not know. But if you think the natives had something to do with it, then the first drone was infected on the 21st, Zu Lang on the 22, and Drie and the second drone on the 24th. These occurred in a sortie up to Lake Headwater in the center and eastern part of the district, then in a sortie up north from there to where the camp was located. But really, if you think there was something else going on... some forest spirit, some poisonous creature or parasite... or ancient magic, I cannot say for certain. But I think it is a good bet it occurred in a grid of a few square miles with Lake Headwater and the river as it's eastern boundary. I can tell you they didn't report anything extraordinary. But I didn't go with them, and I'm not sure they would have told me if they did. Their wounds looked like mundane cuts, even though not all of them came back"

"Whether the loss of the Palladium was the true cause of the decline of the Griffonian Empire. Whether New Mareland had any right to invade Hellsword and the Host. Whether it has any right to administer it. The role of the River Ponies. The validity of democracy as a form of government. Not much disagreement on a few of the break away states though, or of the dangers posed by liberals."
