Silver nods after a couple seconds of contemplation.
"I suppose I would also be distressed in that situation. It would be nice to see pony cultural revival in Red Heart, take this part of city back and clean it up...as ambitious as that idea is."

"That's what the Marelanders claim they want. They can't even keep the anarchists in the west side of the neighborhood from seceding. It's a big task. It's not really safe at night... even now. Though I think you could fight any muggers." He smiles. "But yeah"

Silver smiles back.
"I do not think they could even if they wanted to. It would have to be something residents of Red Heart would have to do themselves."

She smiles, though her lips are tense
"Thank you... It means a lot to me... though I wish I had something like my family plantation to return to... on those rolling hills... to take him back to"
>>125970
"Yes... it probably will. But we're able to keep the griffins, the gangsters, and the anarchists out"

"I suppose that is the norm in Equestria... Yes"

As Silver walks further down Horseman Avenue, he walks past a few factories, but mostly shops, tenements, rowhouses, or shops with apartments on the upper floors. While there are buildings with clear damage from artillery through out the city, it is more common here to see a damaged building than else where. As he goes down further, he starts to see a few more lights on in the shops down stairs. There are burglar bars on the windows replacing the red and black flags from earlier. And there are pony stallions on the streets, who stare at passers by. Just two now, but still it is noticable
"We're entering the neighborhood. There's a road that branches off Horseman Avenue, Cinnamon Road, that is the main road most of it is on. Here. Take a left"

He takes a left. Something about the sight of the artillery-damaged buildings makes Silver a little...sad.
"This part of Red Heart took beating..."

"Yeah, they made us huddle up in the buildings. This part of the neighborhood is on landfill so there is no where to go underground. It was terrifying, the way the walls shook. Listening to the babies crying. It could last hours..."

She is hugged. She has short, kind of course fur that is loose on her body, and he can feel her ribs. She tries to hug back, with very long, bony legs. Her mane is long and wavy, and it flows onto Dark Star

Silver turns onto a new street, with a cobble road, and gas street lights. Mostly shops on the first floor with two floors of apartments with small balconies and brick walls. There are burglar bars on the windows, and again, a couple stallions on the street. Further down the street becomes wide as there is what looks almost like a town square with a market of wooden stalls, closed down for the night, in the center, and what looks like a church and a school house around it. Further down still, past the market are a few much older looking buildings with jettying over the street and white wash walls. At a couple points, alleys that branch off are covered by corrugated steel panels that block the path, and a few garden plots, planted in vegetables, are behind thick fences.
"Here we are. Little Skynavia. We are on a little that pushes out a little into the harbor, between Red Heart and Locust Promontory."
>>125985
"Again, I think you"
She bows her head, and holds out her forelegs, angling her hoof down and touching Dark Star
Glimmering Glass turns around to Dark Star
"Hey, you're back! And you brought friends, it looks like"

"Of course you can" He turns back around, looks through a set of bottles on the back wall, finds nothing, then looks down
"There's no better place to be at ease than the Eastside tavern" Under his breath: "Where did I put that fucking thing?"
He opens a cabinent door, moves some glasses, and then,
"Here we go. One Apple Whiskey, coming up
He pours a glass of straight whiskey for Dark Star
>>125988
"It's not too bad. Most of the ponies work outside the community, but other than that and a few items that you have to buy in town like bicycle parts, there is little reason to leave. This area isn't really commonly for through traffick"
As the ponies go further down Cinnamon street, a Stallion comes up. It's an almost shinning light red earth pony stallion, with a coat almost like a crystal pony, and longer, fluffier fur than normal
"Are you lost?" he asks Silver

Silver shakes his head no, and looks at the fluffy stallion.
"Taking this one back home. Who are you?"

“I am a part of the neighborhood watch -"
Loputu butts in
“Oh back off Talve, you act like you’re an MP on an Army base or something”
The stallion looks back, astonished at the licorice colt
“Lõputu Sügis?! Is that you?”
“Yeah, it’s me, Talve”
“Where have you been? We thought you had drowned or... well I thought you ran away to look for a job or joined the Army Overseas, but they thought you were dead”
“No, I’m right here and alive, thanks to this fellow”
He points to Silver
>>125991
“Hmmm... We’re running low on rooms. But you can do so, sure. Let me just get you...” he bends down and eventually pulls out - “a key”

Silver nods.
"He was foalnapped by griffons operating out of 33 Hoebuck. I was part of group that raided that fortress, cleared it of its inhabitants, and rescued him from what could have been terrible fate."
He looks back to Loputu.
"You know this stallion?"
Silver nods.

"Awww... I'm sorry to hear that" he says
"Does she need a drink as well?"
>>125994
"He was foalnapped?!? Damn, tell me more"
Loputu says to Silver:
"Yeah, it's a close community. That's Talve Süda he was in school with me, though a couple years ahead of me. He thinks he's big being in the neighborhood watch, but really we know he's just wasting time since they cut his hours at the tire factory."
Talve responds
"Hey! It's an important job! And what about your jumping over rooftops and trying to fish in restricted areas
"Alright alright. But good to see you, Talve"
"And good to see you. Like you returned from the dead"
"Awww... I'm sorry to hear that" he says

"Yes?" she walks up, her hooves making a definite clopping sound
Glistening Glass leans over onto the bar, and says to her:
"Are you Meadows?"
"Yes, I am"
"You're a big mare"
"For you, maybe. But I am a horse from Karkadannistan"
"Yes?" she walks up, her hooves making a definite clopping sound

"Well I know his parents will be eager to see him."
Loputu:
"My house is over this way"
>>125999
Meadows looks at him
"Oh"
She moves her muzzle down even as her steel grey eyes stay on him, and she makes a little smile
"I am sorry, but I do not drink. I appreciate the offer, though"
She smiles at Dark Star
Blue Skies is still best pony

The stallion goes out in front, followed by Loputu
"This way." They go just a little past the town square, past a building that looks like a church with reddish walls and a red tile pyramid ontop of a tower, and to a big, corrugated door
"Let me just"
He pulls out a key chain, and unlocks a lock on the edge of the door. click, and he slides it aside. It opens to a little alley that's dirt but kind of clean with some grass on it, into a central common area that includes a few grass areas with some toys, but also garden plots with tomatoes and cabbages.
"This way"
Loputu takes the lead as they go through the center of the the plot, at most an acre and a half surrounded by tan stucco buildings of two and three stories, down a dirt trail between raised beds of vegatables, until they get to an alley on the other side. There is a small road on the other side of this alley, with a line of buildings that look mostly like single houses, and further to the right is what seems like a larger, almost warehouse like building. Silver can smell salt and fish, and through gaps in the houses there he can see what seems to be the harbor bay on the other side of the houses. But Loputu goes down just a few feet on the left, to an opening on a building that was a part of the apartment block around the garden plot, just on the other side.
They go up a set of external stairs, made of wood, up to a landing on the second level. Silver can't quite see over the houses, but there is nothing beyond them, just the clear, full moon night.
Loputu knocks on the door. Then Talve knocks
"Open up!"

She smiles at him, and for the first time, her long, slender horn lights up a blue-grey, letting the key hover in the grip of the blue-grey aura. She smiles at Dark Star. "Thank you, again. And thank you for rescuing me. I know it could have ended so much worse... I didn't think I would get out of that shell at all. But here I am, because of you"
>>126004
A big, blue stallion opens the door
"What is it, it's 2 in the morning, what could you possibly need me for?"
He has a black mane, and a big, muscular build. His yellow eyes focus on Loputu, and he is astonished. Then he rushes forward and squeaky hugs Loputu
"Little Loputu! Where have you been? I though I would never see you again!" He hugs him more, then turns his head back and yells into the apartment
"Soe! Loputu is back!"

Silver smiles at the father reuniting with his son.
"Your son was foalnapped by griffons operating out of 33 Hoebuck. I was part of group that raided that building, and rescued him. He helped us rescue other people they had captured. You have raised very strong, very brave stallion."

He looks up
"There were Griffins?"
A new mare comes outside, kind of angry. She is also a little big
'What is going on, why you wake me up at this hour-"
She, too, pauses for a moment, before seeing Loputu
"You're alive! What happened to you?"
The stallion responds
"This stallion here says he was foalnapped by griffins"
"Well what were you doing to get yourself foalnapped?" she yells at Loputu, and then slaps him with a hoof "Ow!"
But then she comes in, and hugs him
"I was so worried about you"
>>126007
"Well, I am not entirely a pony"
She tilts her head down while looking at him, as if she is looking up at him
"But you are kind and I am grateful"

"Your son has grown up to be very respectable stallion. Yes, there are griffons that operate-or, 'used to' would be more appropriate, now-out of 33 Hoebuck, capturing local ponies to put into slavery or...worse."

"Griffin slavers?" She says, with horror
"Such terrible things! How can I raise foals in this place if there are griffin slavers"
Loputu:
"Mom, he said 'used to be.' He killed them all"
"He did what?"
"Yeah, he killed them all"
"Well, it serves them right. And you're banned from venturing out beyond the streetlights from now on"
"Mom! I'm almost old enough to join the overseas"
"And you're not going there either. You are staying safe right here"
>>126010
She smiles back
"We Karkadanns have a long and proud history and culture independent of Equestria... But I suppose you mean well by that statement"

"With all due respect, ma'am, as parent myself, this is not on your son. It is not his fault. Punishing him like this will not save him, much less help him."

"What do you want to know about it? It is hard to explain in words, when a culture is something you live in, immerse yourself in, like air, or water, all around you. So much of it, you have to see. The rectangular designs of columns and square walls covered in intricate patterns of blue and white on the old aristocratic houses... like my old family house. The trees on my old plantation, harvested in in the autumn by laborers from the village. The big, free standing columns of the Shah's palace ending in rounded marble tear drops. And the ever-burning goblets of Atar, or fire, at the center of the Fire Temples
>>126012
She looks back at him in astonishment
"What..."
The stallion butts in
"We are very glad to have him back alive. Thank you for bringing him back to us"
