In the North, Spark has encountered a new tribe of creatures, who are eager to take him as an emissary between cultures. In the south, Iron sleeps off his wounds, with dreams of a new life for himself and a certain zebra. Silver tries to settle in those he saved from the cultists into their own lives. Fantasy play establishes herself in Baltimare, and she too, has encountered cultures unknown to her before. As they all search for normalcy, it remains to be seen just what dangers await beyond the horizon

Her nose points up in the air as she follows the delicious, fresh-baked smell. When she reaches the storefront she looks in the window.

Mala wades into the water, and tries to pulls pieces out. He has to use his mouth.
Silver pulls out a shoulder in the first instance. The undead flesh doesn’t generally decay, but some of the pieces in the water have clearly deteriorated.

Walking down the street and crossing it, she can see it. Bread, more bread, and a number of pastries.

She licks her lips as she looks in. Can't buy anything today, but I can look…
She walks inside the shoppe.

Iron lets out a single chuckle as he shakes his head. "I guess that is true," he responds with a smirk "but you do have skill few possess."

She walks inside. Only room for a few chairs, then a display case and a counter. She can see brick ovens further back. There are two unicorns there, one at the counter, another in white in the back

She smiles back in a way that seems strange for her, almost mischievously.
“I hope so. That’s the only way I will get anywhere”

Silver looks over to Mala, concerned.
"Uh...you know you can do something else if you want to, yes?"

I'm pretty sure ponies can tell the sex of each other pretty easily.
She walks up to the counter. "Hello mister/ma'am. It's a nice day today, isn't it?"

"Indeed," Iron replies "and I will make sure you get to nurture it as far as we possibly can."
He playfully nudges Cauldron's chest with a hoof, smiling playfully. "Now go demonstrate your prowess to Khoi and teach her all you got on cooking so that we can start our journey."

He tilts his head, and lets a leg fall from his mouth. Both of his diamond ears are up, and he looks at silver with big, brown-black eyes
“What else would I do?”

The stallion at the counter, a light yellow coat with brown mane, and who seems to be sitting on something, answers with an accent that seems to place him among the locals:
“Lovely enough, and lovelier than many. What can I do for you?”
>>130874
She is pushed back slightly, and her ears twitch and torn forward.
“All-alright. I’ll finish it, then. See you later!”

With a little chuckle, Iron turns around, beckoning Sands along, before aiming his now more direct and concise objectives he can follow towards that Saint Germane place/pony.
(I am sure she will have something that can help,) he thinks to himself.

"I'm new to the city and I wanted to tour around before I start working tomorrow. It's a fine neighborhood here, but I don't think I could afford it anytime soon." Her own cadence is quite similar to that of Baltimare but it lacks its cosmopolitan quality, instead being provincial. Perhaps it's the same sort of similarity as the coloration in the two ponies, with Amber having a deeper yellow coat with a ruddy mane.

"I don't mind, if you don't mind... if they don't mind. This is softer, easier on my teeth anyways. I don't have magic like you do, and it's not so easy to pick things up with a paw when I have to wade through water like this. It doesn't taste good, I wouldn't eat it... well, maybe not 'never,' but I would eat leather before I would eat this.,,"
His voice is kind of subdued
>>130877
She follows behind him, slinking with her slim body, and long tail that almost drags along the floor.
>>130878
"Uh huh" he says "Are you looking for bread, cake, muffins or anything?"

She eagerly looks about her surroundings. "What treats do you have? This looks to be a very nice bakery and it's conveniently right next to church."

With a small wave at Blanche, he exits the restaurant, letting the door opens for Sands before closing it with both of them outside.
"...that went surprisingly well," he mutters to Sands "do you have what Cauldron told me in your mind to a potential refresher?"

"It does help sometimes. Could stand to be a little better crowd though. Don't know if it's declining attendance, ponies want to get home, or we're just not as close as we wish. We have muffins, blueberry and banana, even some with nuts. And we can make a cake on request."
>>130881
She looks at him, tilts her head, and kind of winces
"What?"

Iron stares blankly at Sands in return before snorting softly. "Seems you were not really listening to what happened," he concludes amusedly "but I can probably remember them for a bit."
With that being said, Iron and Co. start their little trek towards Saint Germane without much discussion unless Sands opted to ask something along the way.

"I love blueberry muffins! I don't think I've ever tried a banana, though…" After she exclaims this, though, she taps the ground with a hoof, awkwardly smiling at the stallion. "Sorry but I can't buy anything just yet. I can be back next Sunday, though."

Amber says goodbye and goes outside once again. She elects to trot further to the north until she reaches a park, assuming there is one nearby.

"It is not so hard, you can do it! I believe in you. If you need any help, I am here."

"I was not implying you were deaf," Iron replies with the slightest tinge of puzzlement "more that the talk Cauldron and I was not interesting to you."

There are several ponies. One, black in color earth pony stallion sleeps on a bench. There is something wrong with at least one of his legs. An older mare, who kind of looks like High Sewn walks by with a dog, and a smaller unicorn mare pushes a stroller. The most interesting birds are a blue jay and a morning dove. There is more than one raven, and several rock pidgeons. For a moment, Amber may think she saw a Passenger Pigeon.... but no, it's an ordinary pigeon. Just an ordinary pigeon. The Orieles are south for the Winter, as are many of the birds.
>>130893
He looks kind of confused
"I understand why I am not trusted with the corpses.... but okay, I will help with the rocks"
He gets out of the water
>>130894
"Well, I don't really know how it involves me" she says

Silver tilts his head at Mala.
"Eh? It is not that. I am just concerned you will get sick, using your mouth to move corpse pieces that have been in that truly nasty water."

"If all goes well, it might lead to you getting a far more comfortable lifestyle," Iron offers "where you can rest inbetween... whatever activities you usually do."

She smiles at the variety of birds. Not too bad, even for this season. Books just mention pigeons in the city and I was worried they would be all I'd see.
She walks a bit closer to the mare with the dog, not approaching her directly but catching up to her as she looks about the park. The park at this time is not particularly attractive but offers a calmer change of pace compared with the streets.

Mala jumps back into water, and wades closer to Silver. He says to him in a lower voice
"Your kind was made to eat grass, or at least it used to be. If I eat green things, it just goes right through me, but it powers you. And so we Kaftar were made to eat the corpses of animals and creatures. Rotting dead bodies that bloat under the sun, victims of predators, old age, or even sickness. I have a very strong stomach, and I have swallowed worse things than this. I can handle dirty water, and this flesh is sterile, if anything. I have self control, I will not eat any of these bodies and I will try not to swallow anything. I know it is important to ponies, and I know what you told me we were here for. I am not hungry anyways... But I can move rocks, if the winged pony will let me."
>>130898
Her eyes are big, and she looks up to Iron
"Go on..."
>>130899
It's a... terrier? Hard to tell. The park is a single block, between several two and three story buildings. Saint Eligius's towers are very visible, as is the Shipping Company building towering over the town center

Has Amber been to the shipping company before?
It's a cozy park.
When she is close enough to the mare she tries to casually ask, "It's a very nice dog. What kind is it?"

"Think of it like this," Iron starts with a small smile "a potion maker can be extremely versatile in what it can sell to others, meaning that the potential amount of ponies willing to buy them is massive the more it knows. Apply that with Cauldron's special knack and previous cooking experience and she is brimming with potential for being a frontrunner in potionmaking, which can be used to improve all three of our lives with the fabled paper."

She turns around, and picks up a leg, more than a little surprised that Amber is talking to her
"It's a Jack Russel Terrier"

"You are better at words than I do," Iron starts "and can also cover my back far better during the executions of my plan since you do not really have much else to do like me while Cauldron gets to slowly lose her chains."
With a smile, he turns to Sands "I ask you to lend me your charisma and speech skills to further the cause, propel her business forward through attaining favorable reputation and ensure it does not get sabotaged by potential enemies."

Silver, and to a lesser extent Mala, are able to move quite a bit out of the water. The pieces are more than a little dispersed, either by damage over the years or the bomb. A few have damage from bullets. It seems like a good guess that more will be revealed when the water is fully drained. More than once, Mala pulls up a branch.
>>130909
She moves back a little
"Yes... It's a nice dog to have. She likes her walks"

"There it is," Iron calls out to Sands as he spots the shop "we will see if we can get some ingredients imported for Cauldron, maybe figure out what is the potion supply and demand."
With that, the native steps forth into the shop, wondering if it was open and the mare in question present.

The building is tall with three sections to it. A center section that is taller than any other, a section behind it, to the east that is around 60% of the height, and a section in the west that is about 50% of the height of the center section. Both sections on the side are thinner than the square shaped center, and are deliniated from the center by a strip of what seems to be chrome steel. The building is white, with stone facade strips running along side, protruding past and separating the tall and thin windows.. Ever section tapers slightly so that the top of the building is slightly thinner than the base, and ever corner has a small stainless steel spire. The building must be thirty or so stories tall. In Manehattan or even Fillydelphia would be a fairly ordinary, if above average building, blending into the skyline and maybe half the height of the Crystaler building. But this is Baltimare, where low rises dominate, and this building is one of only a hoof full of skyscrapers. It is visible almost anywhere in the city.
