"I would not doubt it. That, or the disease came while working in the town."
>>132680"Uh..." she looks away, smiles and blushes
"Well... maybe a little"
>>132681"Perhaps we can take a sample of this stuff and show it to somepony. Maybe there is a know cure."
>>132682She continues smiling
"Well... when I was in school... There was a place in southside. 'Past Avalon.' I would go there sometimes..."
>>132683"May as well try pony magic. My father certainly believes in it. But I am afraid it will make him worse."
>>132685"I... haven';t danced in a while, now. But yes, I think it is. Or it was, three weeks ago when I was walking by that area..."
She has her lips pulled back, awkwardly
>>132686"Well..."
He looks at the bag
"Maybe"
>>132688"Uh..." still smiling awkwardly
"Are you... looking for a stallion?" she asks
>>132689Amber blushes red, looking to the side.
"I don't know...I mean, maybe...I don't know anypony around and I feel like I need friends." >>132690“Well, around here, dancing isn’t
just for finding stallions, but it’s common enough that many ponies will assume that’s what you are trying to do. You can find friends in these places too, sometimes. That’s why I do the book club.”
She smiles. "Thank you. I suppose I have a lot of options so I'll be trying different ones. Hopefully there's enough free time..."
>>132692“As young as you are, I think you will find time.” She says
>>132693Amber nods, not finding anything else to say.
>>132694“You’re not... married, I assume?”
>>132687Silver raises an eyebrow in confusion.
"Oh?"
>>132696“I think...”
He opens one of the pockets, then another, then looks at the band between the two sides.
“I think it will do”
>>132695Amber blinks in surprise.
"Me? Oh, no, I'm not.
I'm sort of getting to the age where I need to think 'bout it, but…I hardly have met any stallion at all. I never gave it much thought..." She shifts uneasily on her hooves.
>>132698“Well, you’re... about the right age, I would think.”
>>132697Silver nods, and grabs one to purchase. He also looks for one for himself, something sturdy with lots of room.
>>132701>>132700She looks concerned
“They didn’t tell you about how to find a stallion?”
>>132701It’s like 11 PM>>132702Theee are other, even bigger bags available in the shop
>>132703Silver grabs one for himself.
"Anything else catch your eye, Mala?"
>>132704He shakes his head
“I don’t even know what else I’d buy”
He blinks
“Except maybe a sweater”
>>132705"Well, let us go look at them."
>>132706Mala walks on, at first cautiously, then more quickly. The two go over towards ab area with many sweaters (mostly wool). Mala takes interest, looking around
>>132707Silver trots around with him.
"Hmm. They have really nice selection."
>>132708Mala looks up at a few of them, especially blues, maroons, and multicolored sweaters
>>132703She shakes her head slowly.
"Where I'm from the parents would find a partner for you, that's how my sister got hitched."My flag isn't totally irrelevant >>132710I’ve been wondering why you use the sane VPN proxyShe blinks
“Did they not find one for you?”
>>132711Amber shakes her head again.
"Everypony has been more concerned with just having enough food to eat, especially after last year's drought....That's actually why I'm here in Baltimare."I use whatever works. >>132709"I think those would look nice on you, Mala."
>>132712Her ears perk up, and towards Amber
"... What?"
>>132713Mala looks over to Silver, and smiles
He pulls down one that is blue with silver bands at the bottom, and another that has a rainbow at the bottom of a largely maroon sweater
>>132714Amber nods, her spirits suddenly dampened.
"My father is…unable to work so my mother and I have been tending the farm. Last year rain came too late, and even then too little, so we had to make a choice…if I work here I can send enough bits back to help." >>132715"Good choices. We can get you both if you so desire. That way you can choose what you want to wear."
>>132716She nods slowly, and stands there
"I see... Quite a few have been affected by the war. The trains did not come for a month, and the ships did not come most of the year. I can only imagine... Does that mean that you do not plan to stay?"
>>132717"Really? I'll take both!"
>>132718Silver smiles at him.
"Unless you can think of anything else, I have everything I need to buy here."
>>132719Mala takes the sweaters and the bag, and wants to buy them
>>132720"Well... I will tell you to be very careful with stallions. A good one can be a partner, a friend, and a father for the rest of your life. And a bad one... well, there are lots of ways a stallion can go very bad. It's the most important question you face at this stage of your life."
>>132721"And that reminds me..."
Silver pulls out the large wad of Bits they got from the Hoebuck job, counts out 1,200 worth of them, and gives them to Mala.
"There is your cut for job. Your very first payment as adventurer."
>>132721"I will be." Amber is looking at the floor, evidently not enjoying this conversation.
>>132723"Well, you... want to take a look at any more of the house?"
>>132722Mala's black eyes become very wide, as does the smile on his toothy mouth. He inhales in evident excitement
"Really? What did I do though?!"
>>132725"Well, the dining hall and the bedrooms"
>>132727Looking back, I don't think so"Alright, follow me"
She takes Amber down a hall with marble floors, and towards a side opposite that of the music room they left. They enter a room with lower ceilings that is long and comparatively thin. The walls are white, with squares formed by lines of gilding, and inlaid with gilded relief impressions of floral patterns: roses and lilies, made of gold. Different colors, especially the red of copper, help to form a forest scene along the longer right wall. Art hangs from parts of the walls. A few portraits, and a few scenes like manticore hunts. Judging by the realism based style the paintings may be slightly older than the house itself. A few small tables near the walls host candelabras, empty bowls, or small clocks. And there in the center is a very long wooded table, ornate enough to be at home in a palace, but long and practical enough to be serve an old Olenian mead hall. The table is lined with place mats, forks and spoons gilded at the ends, and white porcelain plates with patterns engraved on the edges.
"Here is the dining room"
>>132728Amber is wordless at such an ornate and opulent display. She stares at the colossal table with all its implements and decorations.
The wood has a reddish hue and retains its natural color, mostly, u see the lacquer. It seems to be thicker in the center than at the edges, with a kind of inverted parabolic shape under the table. There are three candle fixtures on top of the table, with the one at the very center being the most ornate. It’s three brass pieces next to each other, varying in height in a manner similar to the tall sails skyscraper: the one in the center is tallest, and each on the side has a different height.
