"I do not mean legal repercussions."

He motions to the altars with a hoof.

"Was it worth all this? I know what happened in this room. I saw what happened, and I know from your knife that you participated."

She looks over to the altars, blinks, and then stares.

She does not answer Silver, or indeed, say anything at all.

Silver trots over to the dagger he knocked aside, which was formerly the female's property, and inspects it.

Silver lets out a solemn sigh, focused still on the dagger.

"I have killed more than my fair share across my life, and at times it can weigh heavily on me. I always wonder if I have done so for right reasons. Or if there is ever even right reason to take life. I know I am not good pony. All I hope is that I use what I am good at to stop even worse ponies."

He looks back at the female griffon.

"What about you? Does what happened at this altar weigh on you?"

He holds the dagger up for her to see.

"This blade pierced still-beating hearts of victims placed upon this altar. Whether or not it was killing blow does not change your part in it."

She looks up at the dagger, and the altar behind it. She blinks, and then looks down and away from Silver and the dagger. She is again silent.

He looks sadly at the griffon, and lets out a sigh.

"I apologize for beating you while you are down by pointing out what happened here. I know it weighs heavily on you. I just...what happened here is cut above everything else I have seen in all my years. I know it is easy to remove yourself from blame of what actions you are performing, when you are just one among dozens all doing same thing, but this is not something that can so easily be shrugged off or should be shrugged off."

She takes a moment, but then looks back upwards towards Silver with an accusing face

"We never killed thirty creatures in one night. Never. Not even close."

She maintains the expression for a moment, but after looking into Silver's eyes for a second or so longer, she breaks off, closing her eyes and pressing her head down into the ground, and returning to silence.

Now, she looks up, and makes eye contact with Silver. Her eyes are grey. She nods, but has no hint of a smile.

After a pause, she answers
"Sundown."

He lays on all fours, in a more relaxed position.

Invited or not, Pear, who has been in fairly close physical proximity for most of this, now moves to lay down in a manner similar to Silver, slightly further away and perpendicular to Silver. Sundown does not have her legs under her (like Pear and presumably Silver), but rather her legs are spread out as she lays down.

"Yes. He is a comrade and partner in the Society. He is Askfält Ihåligt. Originally from Vedina. He has been in the Society a little longer than I, and in Equestria a little longer than I."

He looks over the two griffons, contemplating things.

"If I was Imperial Inquisitor, or common Black Hoof operative, I suppose I would turn you in to be sent back to Griffonia, to face justice. And there would be those who would say it was necessary..."

He slowly shakes his head.

"I do not think it is though. I do not believe you are evil, and I doubt you would have joined Maarists in first place had you not been in such dire straits."

At the beginning of the statement, she moves to place both claws under herself as she looks up at Silver.

She ultimately doesn't make a response, although she breathes in, and then out in a ragged fashion.

He smiles at her, and pulls out his knife to cut the pair free before remembering something to ask her.

Silver grips her claw as best as one could with a hoof, and pulls her up with a measure of strength. He gives her a smile, before turning to rummage through his bags.

Silver pulls out a big stack of paper Bits. 500 Bits worth. He holds it out in his magic to Sundown.

"If we will be left alone after that, and if nothing is told to the police."

She nods, and then smiles, evidently actually excited. She says to Sundown, "My name is Pear Faucet, Associate Professor of Hippology at Stableside University.... I could... ask a few questions..."

Eventually the two go off to one of the rooms between the stairwell and the chapel, likely the same room where Keskoo was found

This takes perhaps more time than Silver intended, as she is in the room with Sundown for an extended period of time. The silence - and occasional lack of it - could perhaps feel unsettling.
