She scrubs the sheet on the bed and hangs it up to dry, exchanging it for the ones that are now dried. If she won't have to worry about leaking Mustard's fluids, the very tired Amber will skip a shower. She says her nightly prayers and lies down to sleep.

Perhaps Amber takes some small amount of comfort in having a small amount of Mustard Trim still in her as she lays down alone to sleep. Probably not though. It's probably just gross.
Working two service sector jobs a day, only having 3 bits to her name, living alone in a small apartment, no friends or family nearby, and most of all, having only scraps of food to eat, sucks. On the plus side, she does have a place all to her self, she is employed, she has no debt, some furniture, and has pretty decent relationships with her coworkers ranging from tolerably okay with the senior salesgriff, to actually pretty good with the junior waiter.
In any event, she may sleep, and will likely manage it quickly.

We can either go with what was plan A, which I don't know if I will be able to make it coherent and work, or we can do something more conventional that I am pretty sure I will be able to wrap up.

Amber - if she can still be called Amber, wakes up alone in a room. There is light peering through a window, green floral patterns on the wall paper, wooden floors, and fine bedsheets with thick covers. There is a wooden dresser to the right side, and a music stand off to the far left.
Outside, through the windows, a bird chirps, and the leaves on the trees are beginning to fall.

"Huh, what?" she asks herself. This isn't at all what she fell asleep in, so was she moved? There aren't any trees nearby, and they should have long since shed their leaves.
She checks herself.

Everything appears to be fine, at least at first glance. Her claws are still there; her feathers are still there. The leaves are starting to fall off the chestnut tree, but remain on the spruce tree behind it, as well as the row of ornamental poplar trees off to the left. Everything is right and normal as surely as her beak is attached to her face. Well, "her" may not be the right pronoun, but you get the meaning

Right as chocolate rain, though the feeling as Amber spreads Amber's legs and shakes Amber's hips is vaguely unfamiliar. Amber trots to the entrance of the room, Amber's claws clacking on the floor.

Amber walks past the window, the music stand, and the viol, and to the walnut door. Does she dare open it?

Some say that this viol was made for the Galiarie, the Court artist of Grover the Second, crafted by the finest artisan in Francistra from wood taken from the deep forest of Tiefbrunnen, and strung with hair from a Nimbusian hoptlite felled in battle... But Amber knows the truth. Amber knows that this instrument was purchased second-claw from a shop in Katerin with every last gilder made from a tailoring apprenticeship, and has been with him ever since. But it isn't the instrument that makes the music...
The instrument is heavy, and is not intended to be held up during playing. But Amber has the muscle to manage it.

Amber sets down the viol as it is intended to be played and plays a short tune that comes to mind.

On second thought, it's best to have a look around first. Setting the viol down, she goes to the walnut door and opens it.

It's a hallway with a rug that covers much of the wooden floor, a closed door across, what Amber understands to be a bathroom somewhere to the left, and a parlor room to the right.

Age has come with just a bit more certainty than promised, as there is some greying on the feathers. And this second task too, is accomplished.
Do be sure to wash the face before leaving, as well.

Ah well, it's inevitable. Something about the reflection, and how the second action was accomplished, puts Amber ill at ease, and it's not the greying. But proper grooming can make up for it.
After washing up, Amber leaves and enters the parlor.

Oh, but it isn't inevitable. If only you where to look. His mistake was not being willing to make the proper payment; to not see the value. But that too, is a mistake that may be rectified in time; that shall be rectified in time.
The parlor room includes a row of books, a wide window, and two leather couches. Each couch has a griffin on it, in dress clothes and vest respectively. A younger, red colored griffin turns to Amber and says
"Hey you, you're finally awake."

He tilts his head, clearly thinking it's an odd question.
"We're still in the South Wing in the guest rooms... But... That's the thing we are here for. You see... I think we need to leave." He says

The other griffin, who has black feathers, volunteers the following information
"After they arrested the princess... well, Nassefeder says he overheard several members of the Katerintreue saying they would did not intend to keep all of the Princesses' staff, which is understandable but under the circumstances... it could mean something else..."
The red griffin speaks
"Hellquill. There is a train that leaves to Griffenheim in some hours, and from there to Hellquill."

Amber nods 'her' beaked head. "I see your point. We should leave as quickly as possible. Are you ready to go?"

Amber trots–or rather, clacks–back to the room. Besides the viol, is everything essential ready to be taken along?

Well, let's see. There's the flute, the music stand... that can stay behind... the sheets of music, the Development of the Lyre in Asterion, On the Harmony of the Spheres by Aristrotle, the locket, the old engagement ring (don't why you still have that, but at least it has some resale value), and a few notebooks full of information that perhaps should be burned, but absolutely should not be left behind. So far as clothing goes, there is a decent number of dress clothes and dress shoes worth a significant amount of money, but it will be hard to take it all.

Two sets of dress clothes. Okay, maybe three. Jewelry absolutely should be taken. Music sheets…anything hard to find should be taken. Is the *Development of the Lyre* a rare book? If so, it should be taken, if not, Aristrotle will make good reading on the train instead. Notebooks that are personal in nature can be taken along, but the rest will be chucked into the fireplace. The instruments themselves are indispensable.

Some of the music sheets are common. Some are unique creations. Development of the Lyre isn't especially rare, but certainly insightful. Young's book on the subconscious, while not rare at all, certainly has many notes and annotations. The notebooks sometimes contain invaluable information on the effects of music on matter, or rather, on the nature of matter itself. These books would be hard to leave behind, but worse to be arrested with. They must be burned if necessary.

She takes only the unique music sheets, keeps Young's book, and takes as many notebooks as possible.

It is done. It’ll need one, no, two big bags. And the viol will need its case… this would be easier with a servant to help, but there is none. So it’ll just have to be carried.

Amber isn't as strong as when she was younger, but it'll be manageable. She leaves her things here until it's time to go, and rejoins the others.

Sometimes it’s hard to catch each other when both the players and the GM have time.
