"Okay." Pear follows him as Silver starts the walk back onto Hoebuck Street, then down to where Hoebuck Street splits off from Horseman Avenue. It's dark night, past twilight, yet still creatures roam the streets, as though the work day is over, the bars are far from closed. Nor is the darkness pure, as street lamps cast an almost obnoxiously yellow light upon that which is under, and waning gibbous moon casts a pale white light upon all, making the two ponies fairly visible to the groups of creatures - mostly griffins, though a couple zebra can be seen - who pass by talking in drunken merriment. Pear stays close to Silver, very close, as the two walk down the street the few blocks to Sacred Heart. Turning around the corner to Horseman Avenue, Silver sees the old Gilman Hotel, and across from it, the crumbling spires on either side of the street-facing portion of the Church of the Sacred Heart. Up the stairs to wooden doors, a paper on the door advertises reduced cost for lessons on the Schuhplattler.

This works, actually.
Silver opens the door to find the wooden floored almost square room with sections to either side, with its decaying ceiling, has had most of the seats removed from the floor. Only a few chairs can be found off to the side, and there is what resembles a tabernacle over in the back besides a couple doors, a recessed are, and a raised section holding the equipment of a band. The center of the floor is clear.

She looks up, and around, carefully studying the church
"I can see... the sections to the side look to be added on in later construction. The shape of the center section is more like the Reformed tradition... But this is very degraded."
She looks rather solemn, staring at the white paint on the lower sections of the walls, or what frescos of the princesses that were never covered, higher up on the ceiling.

On the main wooden floor - that is, the portion of the floor in front of the raised section holding the altar and the musical instruments - Silver can hear a ring that signifies that underneath is neither solid foundation, nor at any part is the floor especially thin or hollow, as if suspended over air by a single sheet of wood. The sections off to the left and right, which don't even have wood, provide no ring.

While Silver looks for some kind of hatch, he asks Pear a question.
"You have experience with different denominations of Celestialism. Are there any you are more attracted to than others?"

There does not seem to be any hatch on the main floor in the front portion of the room.
"That's.... Well, my father was in the Reformed Tradition. He didn't attend much. They have a very solemn way of practicing, I think. My Mother was in the Harmonist Universal sect. They are more ritualistic. Especially the rites of the brand her mother came from. There's something about the ritualism that appeals to me."

Since this implies there are other parts of this church, I would assume Silver goes to check those. He nods in response to her answer.

She tries to give a faint smile. Or she seems to, if Silver is paying attention
"They are more mystical. They are the opposite of the Reformed, in many ways."
The raised section, half circular in shape, is comparatively solid, or even entirely solid at points, though segments near the instrument resonate a bit more. Going down on the floor below, behind, and to the sides, the segment that separates the main floor from the section that surrounds the platform containing the altar, is solid. But just a step beyond, and it sounds more like the main floor. The semi circle surrounding the platform is wooden, but it is a different sort of wood, seemingly older than the main floor. It sounds comparatively normal...
Until Silver arrives on a section in front of a door. Here is an unmistakable knocking sound when Silver stomps on it.

Silver nods in response to her question.
"It is much how I remember it. I thought it was so odd learning as foal that other denominations thought idols of Celestia were blasphemous."
He smiles once he hears the knocking sound, and attempts to use his magic to lift on this section of floor.

“Well, the idea is that it isn’t Celestia herself, but what she represents...” she stands there with her mouth partly open, and tilts her head a little to the side, like she is contemplating whether to say more. But she does not continue.
When Silver pulls at the panel, it seems to give slightly, to lift up a small fraction of an inch. But it does not rise, as it stops

“Well... I meant that the reformed think that placing too much emphasis on physical representations of certain figures can amount to fetishism... and in any case, distracts from the ideas, and the principles the representations are made to represent.” She says, somewhat softly

"It is alright, I suppose it is just differences between Northern Orthodoxy and Reformed beliefs. We less worshipped Harmony - though we did worship it somewhat - and more worshipped Goddess Celestia herself."

Silver can make out the outline of a wooden rectangle on the floor at the beginning of the closet, and extending into part of the floor outside.

Mostly the room is open, evidently occupying, for the most part, the area under the main floor. The stairs going down goes towards a wall, requiring Silver to look back to see most of the room. Though much of the space is empty floor, it has more than a few items of note. A number of chairs, like what Silver saw a few nights before. A set of restraints. A stone statue of a griffin, albeit admittedly a fairly mundane looking one On each side of the room painted onto the wall, a symbol like a radiating and rotating sun. And what seem to be entrances.
Pear answers
“I don’t... know”
But she doesn’t hesitate in following Silver down the stairs
“Probably should have tied my tail up...”

Two. Actually three, but one is in a section that makes it look like a side room One door facing Horseman Avenue. One door a little north and facing East, opposite of Horsemsn avenue and to the left of where Silver entered. One on the right side, in a set of wall that protrudes into the basement.
“I... alright. I should probably just wrap it then, as I do in most field work”

He nods, gives her a soft smile, and gently pulls out the band he used to put up her mane. She feels his magic grab a hold of her tail as he offers her an apology, before he trots behind her and works on putting it up in a neat little bun. He focuses solely on her tail, and averts his eyes away from anything else in the same vicinity to give her at least the barest minimum decency.

She pulls out a second or more bands rather than letting her mane come down; she wants that up for the same reasons as her tail.
She lists her tail up slightly to let this be done, not seeming to mind any part of the process. Soon, Silver is able to get it into a neat enough gun, though the amount of hair in her long, somewhat bushy tail is rather high.

Opening the door... Silver finds a small room, perhaps five by seven feet and rectangular in shape, with a hole in the concrete on the floor, and indeed with no floor at all in portions with clay and sand visible, a single empty pail on the ground, and a couple pipes visible at the end of the tiny room.

It's a square hole, and inside is sand. The sand is moist, and partly mixed with silt and clay. In some areas is several; inches deeper than the floor, while on the side opposite Silver it even escapes the floor and covers a small portion of the concrete.

"I know some buildings were raised about four decades ago. I wonder if this is one of them."

"Looks like unfinished construction. But maybe. If the water table is this high, something has gone wrong."
The entrance is covered by a small steel door that takes some effort to pull open. But when Silver does, it reveals the entrance to a tunnel with brick walls, and a height just barely enough for a quadruped to walk through. While electric lights seem to be rigged inside of the tunnel (a wire running through the ceiling is visible), there is no light in the tunnel, and Silver stares into darkness with no end in sight

At first the door scarcely budges, though a scraping sound hints at what may come with more effort. Evidently the door presses hard into the bottom of the doorwell, bent out of shape from its original construction. With a shove, the flies open, and reveals another tunnel. But this tunnel is older and lined with yellow brick, closer to cylindrical in shape with curved walls, and much taller, while running perpendicular to the direction Silver came. The floor of the tunnel is slightly lower than the floor of the tunnel Silver is moving through, and the ceiling somewhat higher. This tunnel, too, is unlit.

This path goes maybe 50 feet. The tunnel dead ends at a brick wall - though it is a brick wall that looks a little different in color from the remainder. Immediately to the wall's right, is a concrete door well. Though there is no door, and there are steps leading up to a door well.

A contractor who specializes in repairing windows can be phoned, to replace the window hopefully from stock in town. Windows can be carted and either installed by a crew, or simply delivered and installed by the recipient.

Amber approaches High Sewn with an anxious smile. "Ma'am, this here is a phone number of a shop that does windows. Do you want them to install it or us to do the job?"

She looks at Amber for a moment.
"It's probably best to let them install it."
Outside, a stallion in a baggy grey duster and a fedora looks inside the shop.

Amber hurries to clean up what's left of the broken glass. She calls out to the stallion, "Don't mind the mess. Is there anything you might like?"

The stallion approaches Amber. The duster covers much of his body, baggy on the back, but showing part of a short black tail, large hooves covered in greyish fur, and most of his face. His muzzle is a dark grey, and his fur is a grey with a purplish hue, though it has several stripes along the back of his neck and the side of his face that are a much darker grey. His mane is well kept and short black, and his eyes are a dark amber. His fedora covers the tips of his ears, though the bottom portion is visible. His grey duster has a rectangle with checkered yellow and black and a mare on it, as well as a separate circle with three downwards left facing white arrows in it.
"Ma'am. Do you work at this establishment?" He asks. His voice is deep, and definitely accented to the Celestial Coast region.

Pear, though reluctant, comes up and into the hallway
"I... Don't know... it looks like a building in Eastern Redheart."

The stallion sits down, and pulls out a pencil and a notepad, holding it in his hooves and looking back at Amber
"Tell me - if I could avoid going through your boss - was this establishment the victim of a politically motivated attack?"

"I…I think so. The stallion who broke the window didn't take anything, and Miss Sewn said nopony had threatened her for over a year…"

He looks at the drawing next to the window, and seems to reproduce it with delicacy in his notepad, gripping the pencil with his oversized hooves.
"So did you see him? What did he look like? Did he yell out any phrases?"

"He didn't say a word, but he did apparently draw that…" she says, gesturing to the anarchist symbol by the shop. Amber then painstakingly repeats the description she heard Guy give the police.

He takes the time to write or draw something as Amber describes it to him. Then he looks back up to Amber
"Where did he go?"

"He went down that-a-way. We tried to chase him but we lost him by the time we got to that alley down there with the metal stairs on the outside."

Silver nods, and decides to keep exploring the building until he can find an external window or doorway.

Amber hesitates, looking between the shop and the direction of the chase. Well, it's just about cleaned up, I don't think we're going to have more business today and they'll be installing the window themselves. Plus, it's not that far anyway…
"Alright, I'll take you there."
Sorry, have to call it for today.

At the end of the hallway, turning right, is a door that leads into a room that, looking through it, seems to be a reception area or foyer. This area is not illuminated in the night

The door to the foyer is locked, but a mechanism to unlock the door can be found on the inside, which Silver presumably uses to unlock and open the door. This looks like a simple reception area with a desk, a window through the door to the back, a pair of simple wooden chairs, a hallway leading off to the left, some paper with writing hanging on the wall on a cork pin board on the left, and windows and a door on the opposite side

On the wall are papers talking about varieties of doors available for purchase. Wooden doors, sometimes steel. Varieties with glass windows or not. Some information about what materials are in short supply, and about varieties of shipping and installation.
