"And how are you going to do that?" He asks

As she goes down the road, she finds a set of much older buildings. Stone houses close together in a Georgian style, and a few taverns, restaurants, or even an old school house as well, with newer constructions occasionally popping up on one side of the street. It seems this is a section of the waterfront not dominated by peers, although warehouses and factories can periodically be found to either side.

harpsicord playing in Amber's head
Amber has to control herself from smiling broadly when she enters this new–or rather, old–neighborhood. Though she looks ahead to avoid bumping into traffic on the (presumably) narrow road, she glances about to admire the old architecture and to gauge where she might be at.

For a segment near the water, Amber finds herself walking along a paved concrete street with the left, inland side lined with a cobble stone sidewalk and old, closely spaced houses with stone walls and jettied second floors, while across the wide street are fairly modern warehouses. But after traveling maybe one quarter mile, a diagonal, narrow roadway intersects with the street, and both sides narrow to a stone paved roadway, both sides lines with a taller cottages and houses that must have been fairly upscale when the city was young and the modern seaport non-existent. Amber knows she is still in the same larger neighborhood known as "Cowtown," and is in a narrow swath of older constructs between the rail line and the seaport, or perhaps even adjacent to the bay itself.

I wonder why it's called Cowtown?
Amber looks to see if the composition and demeanor of the inhabitants are any different from those down south. Meanwhile she continues trotting onwards, hooves clopping against the paving stones. For a moment on the way a fear of becoming lost arises, but she quickly pushes that down. I must still be close to the sea, as I didn't see any other routes by the waterfront.

It's slightly more pony, slightly older, the pace of those moving is slower, and zebra (as opposed to griffins) are the dominate non-pony ethnicity. Amber is by the sea. That much is clear, even if her view of the sea is usually blocked by buildings. The elevation of the street seems lower than the general street level.
Then she sees it. It's on a lot all of its own on the right, with a wrought iron fence surrounding the property, and a view of the ocean beyond. The property can't be any more than two acres in total, if it is even that. Amber sees a large mansion with light grey walls, a closed balcony on the second level, green shutters around large, rectangular latticed windows, and big dormer windows piercing the dark grey tile cover pitched roof. The rectangular shape, typical of the colonial style, is broken up by two smaller attached rectangles, one on each side, that are two stories tall and sort of round off the shape of the structure. There is a smaller building to the left, and another behind it by the waterline. In the fore is mowed grass, flower beds, and stone covered walkways leading up the entrance.

Mala looks back to Silver, with his head lower than his shoulder level. Maakie has his head up, and straightens the coat
Maakie:
"Indeed it is"

Amber whistles at the edifice that just a few minutes prior would have seemed like a breezy tale. It must look quite inviting in the sunlight. If the gate is open she will walk up to the entrance.
>>131938
This is possible, as the main gate is open. To either side is open grass for some feet, but closer to the house it is lined with well trimmed shrubberies and a few smaller trees. There is another cottage looking building on the same lot to the far left. The shutters on the windows are open.
>>131939
Maakie:
"Yes indeed..."
Mala looks up at Silver. The gate is locked

"Hmm? Oh, right."
Silver takes the keys they got off of Maakie, and looks for the one to unlock the gate.

Setting hoof on the property is like entering a different, more hospitable world for Amber. In many ways the house reminds her of her life back home, though it far outclasses any local residence. When Amber reached the entrance she hesitates but gives the door a firm knock with her hoof.

With a small sign on the door, Amber can see that she can enter through the door.
>>131941
Nothing, nothing, nothing... and "click." Silver opens the gate to find a lot with some high grass, a patch of dirt with flowers planted over it directly on the ground, some now bare trees further in the back, and a slightly raised small one story house with brown wooden exterior, just right of center

Amber does so, presumably into a foyer. She looks around to see what and who are inside.
I have to leave shortly. Sorry for joining late again and I promise I'll correct this flaw.

She does indeed enter a foyer, with a straight staircase going up to the second level, a chandelier above, white railing, and open doors to the left, the right, and at the far end of the foyer. Somehow... it looks less "grand" than a house of this size would imply.
There is a peacock green mare of middle age or so in a room to the left who is visible. She wears a black dress.

It's rather rural, and it's hard to see what exactly defines the far end of the lot, as there are trees on the far side, and something like a creek to the left. There is also a small shed beyond the field of planted flowers
Maakie:
"Yes. Yes it is."

Silver stands there, looking at Maakie awkwardly and unsure of how to proceed from here.

He takes it, and unlocks the door. Mala forces his way in first, knocking Maakie back. Maakie makes known his frustration at that act, but he can't really do anything. Inside is a full if small house it seems, with a single couch and radio in a living room that attaches to a small kitchen, and a tiny hallway leading to a bedroom and a bathroom.

"Such is the advantage of connection to a land holder." Maakie makes his way into the room, towards the couch. Mala is no where to be seen

"Looks like he retains information after all..." Maakie's green eyes slide towards his right, in the direction of the hallway. And from there, Silver can here wood moving, confirming Mala's presence in the area of the bedroom.

Mala pops out of the bedroom, into the hall, and looks into the living room, only showing his head and staying close to the wall

Mala backs up, into the hallway, perhaps into the room. Mala then moves forwards, and tries to speak into Silver's ear
"There are guns under the floorboards"

Silver looks a little...surprised, at the sudden information. He whispers back.
"You really do know lot about this place."

Silver gives Mala a reassuring pat.
"I figured as much. Do not worry about it."
He speaks to him in a normal tone.
"So, what is it you were here for previously?"

Amber's eyes follow up the balustrade and glance at the glittering chandelier before coming back down. She spots the unusually-colored mare and decides to trot to that room.

The ceiling is white, and meets a tiered yellow molding where it meets the walls. Several portraits hang from the walls, one of which at least is familiar. Entering into the new room - it looks like a state room, with dark wood shelves with books and fine china, and a blue ceiling that similarly meets the walls with a tiered, white molding.
The mare spots her before she closes the distance.
"Oh. Hello. Visiting?"

Amber nods. "Your house is very pretty. I heard about it and decided to have a look for myself. Do you often have visitors?"

She smiles, and walks closer forward
"Oh, this isn't my house. This is the Tall Sails family mansion, built in 761. It's been open to the public for a decade now" She answers

"I have some friends there. They helped me out a lot in the past. There is also somepony from New Mareland that we can talk to in order to make the trade deal."

"Oh. Yes. Well, this place was built for Joseph Curwhinny in 761 and expanded for his family, built in the Georgian style. It was used afterwards by Tall Sails and his family, and then passed on from generations down. Around the turn of last century the family moved away from it starting with Wispy Wind, but it stayed in the family. It was damaged pretty hard in the Hurricane of '64, but survived as it was built ontop of a higher rocky outcropping than most of the buildings at the time. After renovations it was opened to the public back in 02."
