Welcome back to thread number like 5 or 6 of Occupied Equestria, a My Little Pony RP based heavily upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and using the mechanics of D&D 3.5, and set in South-East Equestria after it has been conquered and split between the Changelings and a foreign fascist power

Onyx is cleaning glasses, Spark has secured a contract to clear a quarry of Zombies for a real estate developer, Silver is eating meat, Ash and Iron are trying to raid what they believe to be a gangster's den, and Dark Star is holding hooves.

"Sorry, no time to chat. There are dangerous hounds out there." Sister Ash says, giving one last meaningful glare at the cream colored filly, before she disappears into the brush.

Sister Ash takes every shortcut as she tracks down the colt, walking right through the thicket as if it weren't there, the plants seemingly bowing out of her way as she trots after the colt.
"Come on, [insert colt's name here]; don't make this difficult..." Sister Ash calls after the naughty foal

Indeed there is. It is a letter, written in an older Ponish font, but still readable

"Dear Wirlwind

Through the past three months of observation, we have confirmed our worst fears. The old and reclusive Joseph Curwhinny has accumulated great power over the commercial trade of Baltimare over the past three decades, but it appears the darker rumors are true. Curwhinny's forays into Alchemy and the magical arts have given him a sort of power over life and death, a knowledge that he has no doubt increased over the years from his visits to Griffonia and Zebrica. He seems to have practiced his magic on imported Zebra slaves and missing sailors. He has robbed the graves of the dead so as to converse with their spirits, and learn family secrets he can use as blackmail for power over the living. But we fear that through his talking with the ancient and evil dead, he may learn secrets that are even darker. Secrets of great power that ought to remain buried with the evil stallions who once held them.

We believe that he practices his alchemical arts in a subterranean cavern under his northern farm. I have assembled a large group of ponies - sailors and townsfolk - who have never trusted Curwhinny in his decades here, and who are ready to put an end to this menance to all who live. Tonight, after Curwhinny makes his way from his waterfront mansion to his farm, we attack in force. Join us at the Old Mare's tavern at 5. Curwhinny has cast a dark shadow over all of Baltimare for years now. We are putting an end to his darkness tonight.

Sincerely,
Whipperwill

"Where else would I be taking you? I didn't trot all over this whole city to find and bring back foals to this orphanage, just so I could drag away others to who knows where?" She says, trying to hide her annoyance
"Now come along. You've got a lot of explaining to do, conjuring fiends in the middle of the night. Naughty, naughty.. You're too young to know the full implications of what you've doing.." She adds on chidingly

On the other side of the wood, Caleb approaches the filly, with an expression that seems almost disappointed on his snout as he examines the naughty foal
".. Woof.." he lets out softly, before he sniffs the filly up and down, checking for injuries

This pony and others were rallying to stop him. They...did not succeed." He takes in a deep breath. "I fear, if he did not leave for Dread League in Griffonia, then we have Lich on our hooves.

Sister Ash leads the colt back to the orphanage, taking the knife from him and wrapping it in a piece of fabric torn from her shawl. All the while she chides about the dangers of improper conjuration and the need for foals to get 16 hours of sleep every night, in a nagging but concerned tone. She doesn't let him leave her sight even once on her way back to the orphanage.

Caleb eventually nuzzles the filly to her feet, and points (like a hunting dog would) towards the orphanage, before looking back at her expectantly.
".. Woof.." he barks once more, pointingly
