Silver knocks on the door Sundown and Pear are behind before calling out.

"Just letting you know that Askfält is about to get up."

Silver can hear talking, almost whispered, inside the room. It stops the instant Silver knocks, and there is silence for a number of seconds. After a delayed reponse, perhaps long enough to make Silver repeat his statement, the door opens to Pear, who lets Sundown come out.

"I think I will need to calm him down after this."
She walks out into the room, towards Askfält

Spark is going to travel to find aid for the doggo. He will go with the doctor and the main wolf cast on a train most likely.

Pear doesn't say anything, seeming kind of irritated.

But Sundown goes over to Askfalt, who, after being prodded, looks around and jumps up. Or rather, he tries to. His wings spread out, but his forelegs are tied together, so he falls back down onto his side.

Waabishki breathes in and out heavily, and seems to make the beginning of a growl at Spark. Makade, who has been inching slightly closer over the course of the conversation, places a paw on Waabishki, who flinches at first and turns to Makade, but is more startled than angry.

Makade:
"He is right. You know we at the village can do no more, and I don't think there is much to be gained with the Nation up north. I have seen the pony's medicine, as has your father and Miskobag. It doesn't always work, but it can surprise you. If there is hope for Miskobag, it is probably in the City."

He screams out something in some foreign language, though the meaning of his words requires little imagination. He again rises and falls, and Sundown places a claw on him, and then whispers in his ear (or ear hole, given the anatomy of griffins). He starts to calm down.

Pear at least attempts to head off Silver, walking up to Askfalt, who struggles and moves, and then whispers something into his ear. He ceases all movement, as his eyes are wide, and stare forward. When Silver cuts his bindings (or unties him) he does not move.

Pear is smaller than either of the two griffins, and though both Silver and Pear took steps to disarm the griffins, there is an element of risk in going into a closed door room with them. This does not deter Pear.

Silver doesn't hear anything out of the ordinary, or see anything exceptional, hopefully corresponding to an absence of threats. Hopefully. The dominant question is: how long is Silver willing to wait?

Whatever worst case scenario Pear was fearing, it does not happen while Silver is there. Perhaps in the meantime Silver becomes intimately familiar with the faded panels of the alicorn sisters on the ceiling, or with the patterns of star constellations and planets on the floor that correspond to no constellations or planets in the night sky that Silver can remember. In any case, after what is not less than half an hour - and very possibly much longer than that - the creatures come out, wordlessly, one by one.

Sundown looks down uncertainly at his hoof, and offers a very limp clawshake that she breaks off quickly. Askfalk stands behind her, not closing in to offer a hoofshake
