"Admittedly, I have been shot many times recently. I may be quart low on blood. Thank you, doctor."
He sits up, examining his work.
"What do I owe you?"

Silver counts out 500 Bits and gives them to the vet, effectively taking it out of his share of the loot.

Alas, so much beauty had to have had come from a dysfunctional royal family. At least the pitfalls of griffon folly throughout history provide the basis for works of art and music. Amber only wonders what music will be made to commemorate these tumultuous times, or if they are bad enough that even the arts themselves aren't immune–as what's happened to this unlucky party.

Or, at least, Silver can be given the directions to go there. Or even he could try to instruct Dark Star in how to drive.

Silver looks at the car, and considers giving control of the vehicle to Dark Star, who cannot drive. Dark Star gets in the car seat, Silver gives direction on how to change gears. After a minute, Silver decides that he's only a little high on opiates right now, and it's okay to put a little stress on fresh wounds, so he's good to drive right now. He takes the drivers seat, and starts the car, going to the location of his favored fence.

Dark Star enters, and sees what is familiar as a jewelry store, with stainless steel display cases. There is a grey minotaur off to the far left, working at a desk behind the counter, examining something with a magnifying glass. But he is not the one who greats Dark Star. That would be an especially fat, white feathered griffin, who looks directly at Dark Star with a very much please smile.
"Nice to see you again." He says
Is Dark Star not exchanging the gold coins?
Undertoe's gold chain (admittedly he probably wouldn't have that
The women's jewelry that Blue Skies got?

"Hello, I have some stuff for trade, today."
I think the coins would be more valuable the way they are.
I Don't think its on him
She can keep that

He takes each in kind
"1 bit silver coins, Equestrian Canterlot Mint." He turns it. "Actually, Dodge Junction Mint." He counts them out
"One, two, three.... eighteen coins in total."
He picks up one of the wedding rings.
"Oh. One that still has the diamond set in it. This is a rather nice one, by comparison." He examines the wedding ring that was pulled off of Bargain Strength. He looks inside.
"Oh. It's engraved. We'll have to burn that out." He says. He spends a little more time looking at the ring, and then picks up the other one, the ring that belonged to the Diamond Dog.
"This looks like an engagement ring. Simpler. Metal, no gem." He looks at it, then sets it down. Then he picks up the jade dog. "This... What is this? Some sort of Equestrian artifact. That, I do not specialize in. You'd be better off taking that to someone who sells antiquities.
He looks up at Dark Star.
"850 for the lot. Except for this." He pushes away the jade dog

"850? seems a bit light for the Good Stuff I brought to you here."
"I Think 1,000 would be much more fair."
He puts the jade dog back into his bag

"Heh" He smiles
"Hardly. 850 is well over a month's income, as is, and for what? A mundane band, and a few silver coins? 850 is more than fair."

Dark Star smiles as well and looks him in the eyes
"Mundane? My dear griffin these are no mere bands. they date back at least 50 years and were owned by a very powerful creature. I could do 950 bits"

"Do they?" He picks up the engagement ring.
"Simple gold. Markings are..." He picks it up. "Out of Baltimare. I estimate of recent make." Then he picks up the wedding ring. "This one is out of a jeweler in Manehattan. I'm not as sure as to when it was made, but that jeweler is still in business, and has certainly not been around more than 50 years."
He looks over to Dark Star
"Does the name 'Graceful Vine' mean anything to you?"

He closes his eyes, and slowly opens them, looking away.
"I only mean that in these changing economic times, my appraisal may be a bit more accurate."

"I have no doubt in your abilities my friend and these times are very much changing economically speaking. Perhaps 950 was too rich for your blood, I apologize. but the lowest I can go is 900."

He shakes Dark Star's hoof. His grip is strong. His shake is not. He counts out 900 in bills, and tenders them to Dark Star.
"See you next time." He says

Dark Star reenters the car.
There is now 900 bits, plus the 1760 bits from earlier, minus the 500 bits from the surgery.
There is still the gold coins, the meteorite, the jade dog, and the vials, a watch, handcuffs, a telescope, the two pistols, pistol magazines, shotgun shells, the notebooks, and the map.

Silver does inspect the mysterious rock, but also comments on the dog.
"Hmm...it looks like it is made of jade. It must come from East Zebrica near Kirin lands. Very valuable."

"I Think there are some ponies that study rocks."

The shop can be found not that far from the waterfront in Cowtown. The location is a one-and-a-half story building with a high, sloped roof, and a wooden board exterior. The name appears in white letters over the entrance.

Inside are a number of shelves with... well, curios. A porcelain carousel. A taxidemied wild cat. A vintage lamp. A zebrican shield. A pulley from a sailing ship. Some kind of... Saddle Arabian(?) cap. There is a counter at the far end that is unattended, but nearby, looking down at something obscured from view by the counter, is an adolescent unicorn filly, white in coat and with a burnt orange mane.

Silver thinks she will one day grow into a beautiful mare. For now, he wonders about the filly's position in the store.
"Do you own this place?"

She is old enough to be sexually mature, but young enough to be a felony, and will remain so for several years.
“No.” She answers.

The filly moves away from her position, and walks over towards the counter. She places her hooves on the counter, and leans over to look at the jade dog.

She moves in more closely, with her muzzle leaning over the counter, looking at the artifact.
"I see..." She says. She adds, "I guess I can ask the owner to look at it." She says

"It's the wisdom our ancestors gave to us." She says. "We know that what we are, is something unlike what we see. And though what we see is corruptible and destructible, what we are can never perish."

The filly moves away. She says, "I'll see if she's available." And moves away from the counter, into the backroom, although she looks back towards Silver first. "Just a minute."
A little time elapses before the filly appears in the room. She looks at Silver, and the way she looks at his side and what he's wearing makes it clear she is afraid that he stole something. After more time, maybe 30 seconds, a unicorn mare enters the room. She is peach in color, and with a bright blue mane that she wears long and straight.
"There's something you want me to look at?" She asks
>>159318
She tilts her head
"Really? No one has ever spoken to you about these things?"
