Up in the North, the ponies have successfully found who, or rather, what was damaging the mine. But their quest is not over, as they go to look for the source of the trouble. In Baltimare, Iron, Silver, and Dark Star enjoy the fruits of defeating the cultists, while Midnight herds the remaining rescues.

"Let us go!" Loputu says with a smile

Loputu makes a suggestion, but after hearing that it is partly rundown, Keskoo decides to push her luck for something newer

They go into a an apartment set along "Wintry Street" (The main street), and after talking to the landlord, go up to see a room on the second floor. The stallion running the block, a brown pony who looks most like a severyanan, explains that this particular set of apartments was renovated after being seriously damaged by artillery fire in the war, and thus looks new.

Openning the door, inside is a central area with a tiny kitchen off to the side, a bathroom, and a small closet

Loputu:
"And a view to a garden"

Silver trots around to look at the apartment. He might not be living there, but he wants to make sure Keskoo will be getting her money's worth.

"I think it looks nice, but...what does Keskoo think?"

There is a fairly high deposit, a restriction of only two adults living in the apartment, separate fees for water and trash, restrictions on letting zebras stay for extended periods on the premises, restrictions against meetings of certain natures, a required one month notice period for leaving, and a month by month roll over period for rent that theoretically allows for changes in the rent between months

She looks to Loputu
"Are there other apartments worthwhile?"

"There are more. They can be bigger or cheaper. These ones have the advantage of being small, but more recently renovated. Most apartments in Redheart are old, but this is one of very few to be rebuilt after the shelling."

She looks up to him, then looks down, then back to him, and then with a glow of dark green light, she takes the pen, and signs the contract. Her face gives the impression she is not entirely convinced she hasn't signed away her soul and first born

He tries to give her a smile to disarm that feeling, and that he's not trying to exploit her or anything. He takes the paperwork to the landlord.

The Landlord nods, as he continues his smile, while Keskoo pulls her lips back a bit

Keskoo: "I suppose I do need furniture, yes. Though forgive me..." She looks away. "I am... I am skeptical of what is free. Or even what is cheap. Even those who believe they give out of the goodness of their hearts, give out of their idea of good. A good they want to impose."

"You are forgiven. I understand your skepticism. I am old pony, Keskoo. I have lived for many years, and I am ashamed to say that not every action in that time has been good, or moral. I want to do what is right, for what comparitively little time I have left."

"I know... It is just this is a big moment for me. Where I live will affect who I interact with, perhaps who I marry, if I am a victim of crime again... I cannot see my family here. Loputu I suppose is the only pony I know. It is big decision, while I know so little."
