Amber runs from a police raid. After an intense firefight, Dark Star provides shelter for two young maidens, and Silver takes a lovely Kirin he's had his eyes on to see a movie. Iron retrieves treasure from the mountains, and Spark goes back to the wolf village with the resistance fighter.

Khoi at times jumps in reaction to snuggling moves... But she prefers the floof to the chill air. Mist falls down in a fine, light rain. Moving along to the side walk, stone-face candy and flower shops pass along one side, and street lamps and large barren trees on the other, and then past bronze statues of stallions, and fountains with the sound of trickling water.

She looks up
"I see..."
It's a unicorn stallion, wearing some sort of jacket and pack with a cap. Evidently military. His right hoof is raised, and he is looking forward in the direction his hoof points. The base of the statue emulates rock, like he's standing on one large rock.

The stallion looks back for a moment.
“General Hoebuck. Helped clear out the Diamond Dogs and natives back when the unicorns first settled this land, of something. He was the first governor.”

He looks down, and smiles at his kirin. To get her mind off of it, he snuggles her some more.

If she did not want to be buried in floof and then snuggled, she has made a very poor set of decisions to lead her to this point.
Kirin is snuggled

As Silver continues to snuggle her and they look out at the Baltimare surroundings, she may have a sudden though: there will be a lot of floofy snuggling in her future.

Anywhere that's not here. Actually, isn't Hellquill a ways to the southeast? Hopefully the road is headed that way. The train is a better option, but where were the tickets supposed to be?

Hellquill is pretty far North and East, best accessible by train from a different country. The Northern border to Bronzehill is 20 miles away, but it's 20 miles of swamp, and then there is The River to cross. The western border to the Imperial Heart is only 40 miles to the West. But above this, all of this, the train station is slightly over a mile away.

What good is taking the train without a ticket, particularly when you have luggage you cannot part with? At least Amber isn't to blame for this situation. Are there any roads to Bronzehill?
What is certain, though, is that Amber is now de facto an outlaw in the Empire, even if wanted posters have not gone up yet.

There are no bridges crossing the Griffking before the Imperial City. The fastest route East out through Hellquill is the train West to Griffinheim, then East to Hellquill.

You are on the fastest available route
The structure is oddly less grand than Amber might have expected. Whereas Equestrian train stations are tall and open, designed to impress visitor when they first enter a city, this train station more functional and economical with space. Rooms are smaller, and the dominate architectural feature is blocks of limestone on the facade, which compliment a wooden interior. The building is two stories in areas, and has the same red tile roof patterning as defines most of the architecture she’s seen.

"There is at least one good thing to come out of what happened at Hoebuck. I got to meet you, love."

She looks directly up at him, so that her head looks upside down with her beneath him.
"D'awww" She smiles
The carriage rides through a commercial section, and into a second, smaller park, past more small businesses, trees and bushes.

The problem is getting a train ticket, or having the money for buying a train ticket. Amber goes to the booth and asks how much a ticket to Hellheim would cost.

Unless if she has acquired the old griffon's skills, Amber will have to make do with her amateurish ability.
Perform: [1d20+3 = (15+3) = 18]
Luck: [1d20+3 = (2+3) = 5]

Unfortunately, not much money is forthcoming from passers by in the platz. Admittedly it isn’t the town center, or market square, but the audience is stingy. That doesn’t stop many griffins from slowing down to listen as they pass.
One fractal guilder is offered.

Considering that the police would be looking around for that car that drove off from the manor, better to chance it in Griffenheim. Amber gathers all the luggage and waits for the train.

It’s a period of 35 minutes. Far from the several hours it was before, but still an unnervingly long time.

Amber tries to move to one side of the platform and keeps an eye out for any disturbance. She considers busking again, but she doubts the griffons would be any less stingy and in any case it would be drawing attention to herself.

Silver uses the hoof he's got around her to feel the softness of a bare patch of fur.
"How did you get your fur to be this soft, Khoi?"

"I am not!"
She scrunches, and then turns her upper body from laying on her back, to laying on her belly, twisting her head, shoulders, and forehooves.
The following takes place almost in slow motion. As Sorrel twists her shoulders, almost like a rope her body winds up, and then unwinds, with her barrel and her hindquarters starting to rotate clockwise, twisting 180 degrees to turn her onto her belly. The problem is that her hind legs are and have been partly extended upright. They move from above, down to her right and off of the side of the bed, until they hang out over the the edge of the bed. And with their weight, the change to her center of gravity, and the momentum of the twisting motion halted by her legs hitting the side of the bed, Sorrel's hindquarters move over and off the side of the bed. And the rest of the pony follows... Her hind falls off, then her belly, and finally her front is dragged off as well. Her eyes widen, she presses her hooves into the mattress... but it isn't enough. Sorrel falls off of the bed and clashes onto the floor.
Tricky looks up over Dark Night at the commotion.

"Well, I washed it in the water, used one of the soaps, rinsed it, washed it with a different wash, and rinsed it again..." She looks down at her fur. "The bathrooms are nice at the house."

“Yes, I’m okay…” she has a pouty expression, but offers a hoof, even as she lays on her back. She has to be pulled upwards enough to place her on her hind quarters. Tricky pets her head.
