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.

Silver can definitely say he's far cleaner now than he was earlier. Even with the pain of his wounds, he feels far better. He gets out, drains the bathtub water, and dries off with a towel.
Feeling clean and now back to his normal floofy self, he heads back downstairs to join the others.

There are only four towels, but surely enough. Silver gets out, fluffier than before
Downstairs, the creatures seem to have separated. Jubilosa has placed a bottle of wine she found on the table in the living room, as she is laying on her back passed out, with her rogue hanging out of her open beak and her right foreleg on her chest.
Sounds come from the kitchen, the door to outside is partly open, and Keskoo is nowhere to be seen

Silver looks at Jubilosa on the couch, then trots over to the kitchen where Khoi presumably is.

She sits up, and throws her forehooves to the air, in a clear “I give up”
Iron can see her cutie mark: a needle and red thread

Silver goes over and sees Khoi placing pots and pans, as well as some food items on the counters. The kitchen looks fairly nice, with an electric stove and wide sinks. There isn’t much food at all, mostly fish and what looks like squid, and even that is low in quantity. A take out bag has been tossed in the trash, with the trash can being placed out in the open as well. There are not many pots or pans, but a few

Silver gives a curious look at what she's doing before speaking up.
"Would you like help with whatever it is you are doing?"

"I see that. We will have to shop for groceries sometime today."
He looks back at the open door.
"Where did Keskoo go?"

If Mint Marine were here, he could probably identify not only the fish but where it lives. Loputu could offer more useful information, such as whether it was caught in the bay or purchased. But this is Khoi, and she just knows she doesn’t want to eat it, setting it to the side with mild disgust. She points with a hoof past the bar and to the balcony

There is a double door between the dining area and the living area that opens onto a wooden deck, which has a wooden railing. A table and a couple seats, and extends a little further than the second floor balcony. A wooden staircase descends from the deck down to the ground. There is grass an sand on the ground, and as a whole, this property must not be more than 3 or so feet above the high tide mark. By the water is a string of rocks, and a little sand beyond that, as well as a small dock that extends into the water. There is a small white rowboat tied to the dock, bobbing on the waves. And next to the dock, on the rocks above the sand where the edges of the waves meet the land, is Keskoo. She sits there, staring out into harbor bay

She looks over to him, up, and then nods. She turns her head back to the water, seemingly watching a smaller freight ship - probably not ocean going - move across the bay towards the harbor mouth

"Not really. No. I was inland. And when I saw ocean, there were no big buildings like these. It was much colder. More trees. More rocky shore and less sand."

“But I am not from Skynavia. I am from Cubria!” she protests, exhaling through her nose and turning her head. But then she inhales, and answers Silver’s question
“It can be, yes. The growing season is short and not all crops will grow so far north. Some, only further south. The soil is hard and thin. The winters are unforgiving. But we made a living.”

He bows his head to her.
"My apologies, I did not mean to offend. You are from Cubria."
He returns to looking at the harbor.
"It sounds little bit different from my own Motherland. I have heard, though, that *Cubria* has made ponies who are stronger and more resilient than most."

"I have not met most ponies. But I thought we were resilient. Strong..."
She looks out into the bay again. There are several moving objects. Looks like green water freighters and a couple fishing vessels. A naval ship - or more likely, a patrol ship owned by customs - hangs around near the mouth of the bay

"I... don't know... They chained me up in the factory floor in there. Yelled at me. Barked at me and hit me. It was not as bad in the collective factory in Everfrost, but it was not so much better either. I am free of both now. And for that, I should be grateful"
She has tears in her emerald eyes

"Sewing and embroidery, mostly. My grandmother taught me how to make the gákti our ponies would wear. Take dyed thread and mix together blues and yellows. Or even sew metal to leather in the more traditional garb. I can do more, I am sure"

Silver strokes his muzzle in thought, before Keskoo can practically see a lightbulb go off over his head.
"I...think I have idea. There is neighborhood in city with more ponies of your culture. I would have to look at prices, but...perhaps I could help you open sewing and textiles shop there?"

"Maybe, if I can compete with factories. But at least I will not be visited by secret police for 'resisting collectivization' if I embroider a wedding dress for money."

"You have couple of things factories do not. You know how to make fabrics in your culture's traditional style, which factories cannot replicate, and you can get to know your customers on personal basis. I will do whatever I can to help you get started, even if I have to pay out of my own pockets."

Silver stands up, and offers Keskoo a hoof for her to get up with, too.
"I just hope Khoi and Jubilosa do not get in too much trouble while we are gone."

Damn it. I guess I should. I used to make floor plans all the time in Home Architect
It did not have it's own bathroom
They don't have bandages there to replace them with

He heads back inside, Keskoo presumably following. Before he actually leaves, he checks in with Khoi.
"Keskoo and I are going to Redheart. Do you need anything?"
