After a successful looting, trading in that loot for pure coin and prizes is a pirate's priority. And what better place than a real trading post city. The soaring towers and crisscross streets make it a bit confusing and crowded. But there are plenty of signs everywhere, so soon your own shopping endeavors were successful.
Of course, the down side of a place being so hard to regulate is that its also a bit hard to secure, on the way back to the ship you hear rumbling of a crowd shouting, a sound of gunfire and the sound of gears turning.

 No.628676

>>628675
Eh, nothing out of the ordinary there… I just hope it isn't coming from the direction of our ship!

 No.628677

>>628675
Flip flop my ears around.
"Uh oh, what's that?"
Hop towards the nearest goat tower!
I must climb it to see what's going on!

 No.628680

Now, how much does our fortune amount to?

 No.628685

>>628677
>>628675
Her floppy ears pick up the sound of the gunshot, and worry immediately washed over her
"Butters, stay close to me!" She said trying to catch up to the goat as much as she could

 No.628686


 No.628687

>>628685
"You don't need to worry about me!"

 No.628688

>>628676
>>628677
Going to the top of the tower you can see a fight has broken out between a pirate ship's own crew. They are actually making a bit of damage to a different tower in their fighting. Its also in the way of your best path to the ship.
>>628680
By my last count there was a total 1100 'silver' not split up yet

 No.628690

>>628687
"Butters I need to constantly worry about you! I can't imagine the shenanigans you could cause if no one keeps an eye on you!"

 No.628691

>>628688
Ah well, too bad for them. I'm not stopping or turning away; I've got to get this stuff dropped off at the ship, so if they're smart they'll stay out of my way.

 No.628692

>>628690
"You cannot contain the goat!"

>>628688
Ooooh!
Is there popcorn anywhere nearby?

 No.628693

>>628688
"What in the world?… A fight breaking off right here? Are there no guards around to deal with this kind of thing?!"

 No.628696

>>628692
"Butters that is not popcorn, that's a shootout!"

 No.628697

>>628691
Sure, but you might want to fly around their fight so you don't get caught in the middle.
>>628692
Popcorn, well you could look around, maybe somegoat dropped some.
>>628693
Leonis catches up to you panting a bit from the effort.
"I'll protect you Princess!"

 No.628699

>>628696
"Same thing, really!"

>>628697
'1d20+2'
Time to search for popcorn!

Roll #1 2 + 2 = 4

 No.628702

>>628688
Well then, I think it's high time we armed our new little fancy vessel with some proper teeth, no?
Set aside 500 of those silvers and set forth towards the docks, where my ship is grounded.
I need to find an armory!

 No.628704

>>628697
Around? Very well, if you say so…
If I wasn't pressed for time, I'd go straight through

 No.628711

>>628697
"Ah, there you are Leonis, I was wondering where have you gone off to. Can you believe it? Pirates attacking, right here!"
"… Oh and.. Did you brought our food? "

 No.628714

>>628699
All you find is this bucket of old bolts.. At least they look clean.
Oh, and Leonis got snacks for you and Dania, some large fluffy cotton candy.
>>628704
Fair enough..
You reach the ship after a short delay. The Techicolor Fools ship is just as you left it, Andy that moogle is sitting around staring at the sails.
>>628711
He presents some large fluffy cotton candy sticks with a larger grin.
"I did! Its not as sweet as you are, but I think its close."

 No.628715

>>628714
"Ooh, thanks! That looks much more tasty than old bolts!"
Start chewing at the edge of the cotton candy!

 No.628716

>>628714
"Now where would the armory be…"
Stop somepony working at the docks and ask for directions.

 No.628717

>>628714
She puts a hoof in front of her mouth and giggles before taking a little piece of the cotton candy.
"I bet you just bought this to make a joke about my Wool too, huh?" She poked his side.
"Also, I believe we should be heading back to our ship. The captain must have heard the shooting too, and I'm certain he would have done the logical thing of meeting back up with us there."

 No.628718

>>628716
"Ah, you are actually pretty close, just stick to this path here, and you're good. They put that close to the ship docks so they don't have move the heavy stuff too far."
>>628717
>>628715
The cotton candy is soft and sweet, melting away in your mouth and leaving its strong sugar aftertaste behind.
"Arr, I be glad ye ladies like it." He bites into his own and makes a scrunchy face at how sweet it is.
You get a nice view of the fighting from up here, but only about half the pirates are still fighting, it could be over very soon, before guards could actually get over there anyway.

 No.628719

>>628718
"Smart fellows!"
Off I go, to the armory!

 No.628720

>>628718
>>628718
''Hmn…I wonder what is the reason of all that ruckus…a bar fight I suppose…what you think Leonis?'' she nibbles a bit of the cotton candy

 No.628721

>>628720
>>628718
Nibble nibble!
"Or a tragic fight over one's love! A story full of drama and plot turns no one sees coming!"

 No.628722

>>628721
''Butters have you been reading those sappy novels again?''

 No.628723

>>628722
"Keeping your eyes and ears around here is much more exciting than those!"

 No.628724

>>628719
You follow the road and the scent of oil, metal and smoke hits you pretty hard, followed by the sounds of clanking metal and wooden boards being nailed together. There is actually a large space here for ships to land and be repaired or heavily upgraded, as well as let the ponies do more complex work outside.
The center of this is a black tower, but you can tell its not black by intention, but by years of gunpowder being blown onto the thing.
>>628721
>>628720
"Hmm I like the version with a fair lady waiting at the end." Leonis decides as the combatants dwindle down to just four who burst out laughing before brawling with their hooves.

 No.628725

>>628724
"Ooh, maybe this is one where old friends meet and it starts out as a fight but they realize they cannot defeat each other and also that friendship is totally magic and they all have fun afterwards!"

 No.628726

>>628724
''This situation gets more and more strange at the minute…Nom nom'' She was almost done with her cotton candy. she hums a bit in delight, the sheep had quite the sweet tooth

 No.628727

>>628724
Stop and ask one of the workers for the quartermaster.

 No.628728

>>628727
The first group you come upon is working on a catapult.
"Looking for Old Man Striker then, I'll ring him for ya."
"Nope, you gotta stay here and finish those hinges"
"Come on' Mark can do that."
"Nope." A large goat with an almost as large hat replies. "You're supposed to."
"…Ah darn it.." the pony replies and keeps working while the goat moves easily around the yard guiding you into the tower, and shouting. "HEY STRIKER! GET DOWN HERE!"

>>628726
>>628725
Whatever it was, it was over just as fast as it began, and the bunch of them are mostly cleared out. You see a pair of goat guards on what can best be described as personal air ships, with propellers instead of balloons. You see one of the pirates dart to the tower under your ship, in a effort to hide.

 No.628729

>>628728
This pony needs some FREEDOM in his life.
Soon.
Wait for Striker.

 No.628730

>>628728
Giggle and finish off the cotton candy, complete with eating the little thing it was on, then hop off towards that tower fast and without a word!

 No.628731

>>628728
''Ooh, I could use one of those'' She eyes the personal air ships with interest as she hops down and heads to the tower their ship was docked at.
''Come on you two'' she stops for a moment to turn at Butters and Leonis, a bit of cotton candy stuck on the corner of her lips

 No.628732

>>628729
What a pirate pony, already trying to steal crew members.
You wait only a moment longer and an imposingly large red earth pony makes his way to the base of the tower, with a slight smile behind his grey'd beard.
"This pony here wants to see you."
"Ah, so that's what you were hollaring about. Well, here I am, I'm Iron Striker, been running this part of town for as long as anyone can recall. What can I help you with?"
>>628730
>>628731
Leonis carries your stuff with a love struck expression as he chases after you both to the tower. You can hear the soft panting as you approach, and in the window of the tower you spot a diamond dog wearing bandanna.

 No.628733

>>628732
Can I hop in the tower some way?

 No.628734

>>628732
Give him a hoof.
"Sudden Chance. My ship just rolled into town."

 No.628735

>>628732
''YOu there, gentleman.'' She calls for his attention before whispering to Leonis
''Leonis, get your guard up, we do not know if it will attack us…''

 No.628736

>>628733
You can roll uh, acrobatics, to jump in the window, or roll it twice to climb the side of the tower, or just walk in.

 No.628737

He shakes your hoof.
"Nice to meet you Mr. Chance, if its a ship you'd like help with, I'll need to know her name."
>>628738
>>628737
>>628739
With a bleat and a hop you are climbing like you were born to do it. A hoof in this window, a hoof on this stone, and a thrilling rush to your head as you land on top of the tower. No way a dog would out match you! You can easily slide onto the ship or descend from above, or just stand here at the top gloating.
Below you see a few passing goats whistle and hop in place as congratulations for your swift tower climbing.
>>628735
"What? Me? I was just resting here. I swear." A female voice calls back to you. Ah, yes, Upon closer inspection the diamond dog is a female, with tan fur. It is a bit hard to tell with these two legged creatures thou. Their snouts are all so similar.
Leo has his spear drawn, and a shield up just in case he needs to block.

 No.628742

>>628741
Just straighten my back to goat.
I mean gloat.
But just for a few seconds.
Hop inside the ship to have a look around first!

 No.628743

>>628741
"Technicolor Fool.
The Fool for short. I'd like to arm myself, me and my crew hunt monsters, you see.
Specialize in taking them alive. That's why we are gonna need harpoons."

 No.628744

>>628742
It smells like victory.
Or maybe that's the air of gun powder and snacks.
The ship is intact, Andy the moogle greets you with a wave as you come inside.
>>628743
"Hmm I see, going after the sky fish. How many harpoons are you thinking?"

 No.628745

>>628741
''Resting huh?'' She takes a good look at the dog
''Now, I will have to ask you two questons. and I sincerely hope you aswer them truthfully, or I may have to call the guards here. We saw the rumble just a few minutes ago. now aswer me. Where is your captain?'' she speaks calmly, but firmly

 No.628746

>>628744
"Just two to begin with. The ship itself isn't too big and we are just starting out."

 No.628747

>>628744
Wave back.
"Hi, not much time to talk!"
Grab a snack then head back, down the tower!

 No.628748

>>628746
"Two harpoons for The Fools then, would you like hardened iron, mythril tips or to spring for full mythril?"
>>628745
"Uh, my captain? I'm not sure, I mean he lived I'm sure of that, but he might be at the Lighting Hunter or something."
>>628747
"kupo?"
You grab a few bites of that sweet metallic cereal and race down the steps to see the sheep and the unicorn corning a Diamond dog girl. She's got a bandanna and matching loose clothes on, and a small a pack on her side, but not much else on her.

 No.628749

>>628748
Hop next to her.
"Hi! I'm a goat! Who are you? Why are you hiding? Will you answer truthfully?"

 No.628750

>>628748
"What's the difference in price we are talking about here?"

 No.628751

>>628749
''She will Butters, don't worry…''
>>628748
She approaches the dog, clearing her throat
''Ahem. This is Buttermilk, and I am Dania. Now, why aren't you there with him then. hmn?'' She says while taking a good look at the dog girl, checking for bruises or maybe even hidden weapons…

 No.628752

>>628750
Iron is 250 each, tipped with mythril is 310 each, 500 each for full mythril.
>>628751
>>628749
"I just got separated, and didn't want to get captured by the guards. That's all. I ain't lying about that. Now uh step off hooved ones!"
She does have a few obvious bruises from the fight, but nothing serious, and hidden weapons wouldn't apparent so you'd have to roll to find it.

 No.628753

>>628752
"I think Iron will do us fine for a start!"

 No.628754

Psst.

I bet you can tell me something nice about this dog!
Free hint!

 No.628755

>>628753
"Alright, that's 500 for two, where did you park her? Or.." He looks outside. "Yea, there's a spot for the Techicolor Fools there, you can just bring her around."
>>628754
Your free hint is. she's a good sniper/ranged specialist and if you recruit her she'd help out by manning canons and such for you. She also doesn't like her captain much after that fight.

 No.628756

>>628752
''Calm down, calm down…'' She raises a hoof
''We are not here to harm. come with me, you seem pretty beaten up, you can rest at our ship until the situation is clear and it's safer to leave. we can even help you meet up with your captain again if you want'' She motions to the Technicolor Fools Ship

 No.628757

>>628755
"With pleasure!"
Time to move my boat and get us some equipment then!

 No.628758

>>628755
Clear my throat.
"Hey, I know you had some beefs and whatnot with your captain, you got into that fight even though you didn't want to, and you are a sniper anyway not a brawler! Why not join our ship instead! Our captain is the best and he would treat you the best and we'd get to be friends and everything!"
Smile at her like it's completely normal I know all of this!

 No.628759

>>628758
>>628752
''Now now Butters, we must respect her loyalty to her captain don't you agree? after all she must hold a lot of respect for him, I mean, it's Captain Lightning Charge we are talking about after all! she must have a deep admiration for him''

 No.628760

>>628759
Blow a raspberry.
"Sudden Chance best captain!"

>>628756
>>628758
>>628759
The dog girl Seems very very taken back at your knowledge of her. She quickly covers it up by overconfidence. "Oh my. Well, I guess it makes sense that you've heard of me. I am the best paw that ship has ever had aiming their cannons and rifles. Ha, and to think they involved me in their little tussle, and Ginger in a nice soft name too, rolls off the tongue."
>>628762
"Arr!" Leonis can't help himself anymore and cheers along for the praise of captain Chance.

>>628757
You fly over to the boat, and you hear the chatting of some of your crew in the tower below it.

 No.628767

There is a tan diamond dog female your crew has cornered here. She has a few bruises from a recent fight but nothing too serious. Her outfit is a loose cloth number, and she wears a bandanna on her head.
"Whoa wait, so you're trying to tell me ya'll are pirates? I guess that means you aren't actually gonna call those goats over.."

 No.628775

>>628774
Raise a brow.
"Pirates now?
What a dreadful thing to say."

 No.628776

''I helped…'' was all she said
>>628774
''No need to worry, I know you and your crew just came by to spend your gold.''

>>628776
''Whaaaat?'' She flutters her eyes with a grin

 No.628781

>>628780
>>628777
>>628775
She laughs and eases up a bit. "Ya'll are silly hooved creatures, you knew I was a pirate already you didn't have to hide it. Captain Chance.. Captain Charge is a pegasus too, I don't suppose you like to pound stupidly large drums during battle? That's not a pegasus tradition right?"

 No.628782

>>628781
''I believe not, but why trust me? I'm not a pegasus.'' She shrugs.
''So, will you be coming with us in the ship? guards might jump here at any moment.''

 No.628783

>>628781
"Oh no, the drums are my resort!"

 No.628784

>>628781
"No, I just shout one liners instead of orders to inspire fortitude in my crew!"

 No.628785

>>628782
"..alright alright.." She says with irritation and dusts herself off. "You're a pushy little poof ball."
"Ehem, Dania is a proper lady. Don't be insulting her, ye not be a member yet after all." Leonis says with a glare.

>>628783
"…I see, but yours can't be that annoying, right?"
"I swear I will go death if I stay with these guys.."
>>628784
She stares a moment and then giggles into her paw. "Sounds better already."

 No.628786

>>628785
"I only play annoying music against our enemies!"

 No.628787

>>628785
>>628786
"Trust me, it's effective.
So what say ye, did we gain a new crewmember?"

 No.628788

>>628785
She was about to speak before Leonis does it for her
With a smile she places a hoof on his shoulder
''It is fine Leonis, I was not expecting her to be polite at first with us. after all we just met, besides, I must say I am a tad pushy sometimes am I not?'' She giggles

 No.628789

>>628786
>>628787
"Hmm.. A crew that might actually appreciate me does sound a mite nice for a change.. Alright Chance, Ginger is officially on the Job, what's the name of this crew? Something good like the Black Pearl?"
To the goat she shutters and replies.
"Promise ya'll give me a signal so I can plug my ears."

>>628788
Leonis blushes at your touch, its a bit of a stretch to reach his shoulder properly since you're significantly smaller than him.
"Awh okay, sorry for bein' so harsh with the lass."

 No.628790

>>628789
"But then you might miss out a fun song!"

 No.628791

>>628789
"Living in the sudden dread of her killer tunes is part of the pirate life!
Welcome to the Technicolor Fool, Ginger!
Now let's get the ship off the docks, I ordered two harpoons and we have to mount them at the armory!"

''It's fine dear, now come on, that cotton candy was nice but I need something filling. Is it about dinner time already?'' She licks her lips, thinking of delicious foods

 No.628793

>>628790
"I need my ears more!" She declares with a slightly worried look.
>>628791
"Harpoons? Aye, I can work those, actually, just about ranged device really." Ginger declares as she strides after you onto the ship.
>>628792
"We can get whatever like Princess.. but first we ought to move the ship with the captain." Leonis replies in 'smooth' tone.
Ginger rolls her eyes at this.

 No.628794

>>628793
"Good, then you will be able to tell if we are getting ripped off!"
Let's take her out, captain.

 No.628795

>>628793
''Of course Leonis, of course. would you like to join me for dinner then, once we are done?''

 No.628796

>>628793
"I'm not taking your ears away, duh!"

 No.628797

>>628796
"I'd have to take away your drums if you did little goat." The dog rubs her tan paw on your head affectionately before getting a look around.
>>628794
"This ship is pretty nice, I'm not a shipwright but It looks like she can handle quite a few upgrades ifin' y- we get the parts for it. "
Your new diamond dog says in conclusion as she watches it float over to the armory section.
>>628795
"I'd love to uh.. es-cart you somewhere Princess." Leonis replies and nearly drops the ropes he was using with telekinesis..

 No.628798

Giggle.
"You'd put them on your head as ears?"

 No.628799

Whistle over to the armory workers, signaling we are ready.

''Oh, I apologise, I just hope I am not breaking your concentration with my constant bothering'' She smiles and scoots away from him, watching him doing his work

 No.628801

>>628798
She giggles back holding a spot on her side that had been hurt and sitting down on the deck. "You're okay, ya know that?"
>>628800
"No.. I like bein' bothered.. I mean, ye not be a bother.."
>>628799
You see the smiling old smith pony wave back at you and team of pegasus start hauling up your harpoons, guided by the large goat from earlier standing on the back of a gryphon they look really, really sharp.
The goat hops on deck signalling them to just wait a moment and turns to you "So, you just want these one on each side or where?"

 No.628802

>>628801
Nod.
"I know! You don't look fine though! Do you need a bandage or something? Ooh, or a healing song!"

 No.628803

''I can bother you during our dinner, but if you mess up because of me the captain will be all over my wool and you know that''

 No.628804

"Ha, I could do this with a blindfold on, not a problem!"
He laughs heartily but his magic is a little weaker and slower while he talks to you.

"A song that heals? I think my ears would be mighty grateful for that." She leans back and sighs.

You both notice the pegasi setting down harpoons on deck and looking at the captain to see where they should be actually mounted at.

"Gotcha." The goat nods in confirmation and hops over giving out orders to the ponies about the proper angle and to use more back into it.
With a real team working on it, its relatively quick to install. they are halfway done even.
>>628806
The unicorn nods. "Of course I won't delay us, don't worry Princess."

>>628807
Playing on my nostalgia are you little goat?
You pull out a tiny flute an play the notes properly, the diamond dog seems somewhat soothed by the music and sways along with its tune until it completes, she still has bruises but they don't seem to bothering her.
"Hmm this kind of music I could get used too, thanks goat kid."

"Hmm" She jumps up and in a very invasive way hops over the ponies and goat patting the harpoon and touching the springs in the launcher.
"Oh my. These are nice. New. Why I can still smell the forge on this one."
"Of course, we don't sell junk here." The goat with the large hat replies smugly to her.
"..this chain looks amazing too, its iron alright but light enough to travel through the air easily."

"A park? …" The diamond dog girl fidgets her banana around on her head in a concerned manner before smiling at you. "…you're a sweet little goat ya'll know that? I can tell just from a few minutes with ya'."

>>628813
Leonis grins a mile wide and rubs the back of his head with a slight chuckle. "Uh, so.. what do you like to eat?"


The pegasi from the shipyard have finished their work installing the new harpoons and gone off somewhere else. The large goat is about to leave on his gryphon companion's back, but is hoovering nearby. "If you need anything adjusted, or want else just stop by and ask, we always remember a ship."

In the distance you hear the crackling of canon fire, and something like a roar of a dragon. There is a faint air of smoke on the wind.

 No.629282

She's shaking her head at you and looking off in the distance with a shutter. "Sounds like they discovered the Lightning Hunters.. guess them guards aren't incompetent after all."

The tan diamond dog, Ginger kind of shrugs as she leans back.
"Way I reckon, that's the pirate life, making a ruckus, gettin' chased out of ports, even brawlin' in the streets drunk before the end of lunch. They're happy with their choices, and heck, they'll probably get away just fine.."

Leonis frowns a bit. "Or just unlucky."
>>629293
"Oh, that's the name of my old crew. Captain Lightning Charge, and the Mighty Lightning Hunters." Then she does a silly looking pose that resembles a thunderbolt. "WE BRING THE THUNDER!"

You hear a few more rounds of cannon fire and a vague sound of drums in the background.

"As the lady says, keep ye wits about ye Butters." Leonis chips in with a cheerful nod.

>>629308
You are soon trotting away into the noisy crowded city in search of something suitable for someone of your class to eat. It has been so long since you had a proper meal, these food stands and candy treats won't do for your figure!
The search is rather grueling and you pass by so many of these low class stands that you begin to believe the rumors about goats eating anything!
But at last you see a tower well decorated with awnings, places to park personal air-ships, and simply full of balconies with private seats. There is even a butler goat at the door.
>>629309
>>629310
For a girl goat, you make a convincing little boy. This ragged hat and coat, complete with a little pan for collecting coins, and wiping a little bit of oil from the engine on your fur really helps sell it.

>>629314
Ginger laughs. "That's what Captain Charge would have wanted you to think. Its just a special horn.. unless the guards got serious since the last time we got away from here.."

The moogle has come to your side and is shivering ever so slightly.

 No.629322

Turn in surprise at the moogle.
"What's up now?"

 No.629324

>>629320
''Ah there's a nice place Leonis.'' She walks along with him to the goat ''Excuse me, we would like a table for two''

 No.629330

>>629322
Sure, you bring one instrument with you.
No one notices you for a while as you move through the confusing net of streets. As you stop to let a herd of buffalo pass you by you hear them chatting.
"Did you hear that this' place's guard's captain brought in 4 new bounties?"
"FOUR?"
"Yea, I'm sure glad I told my contact to use this place."
"You mean that cook Darrik?"
"Nono I mean the trader, Gilded Lily."
"Ooh, I heard she's from the northside of Lawforge."
They drop a couple of small coins into your pan on the way by.

>>629323
Ginger frowns at that. "Goodbyes are terrible, and anyway, they don't usually back track fer crew that dun went astray…"
The moogle whispers to you. "I came to make sure you were alright, kupo, I heard loud sounds."

>>629324
The butler goat bows to you, he even smells cleaner than most of the city. "Of course, do you have a reservation Maim?"

 No.629332

>>629330
Tip my hat at them and mutter a thanks!
Hmmm… we better not start trouble here, that guy or gal sounds serious! Keep going to where the battle was!

 No.629334

>>629330
"Speaking of crew which took and went awol…"
Shift my gaze through the incredibly silent deck.
"Where are those two chatterboxes?"

 No.629336

>>629330
''A reservation? For Mua? no I believe I do not, sir'' she glances and whispers
''Play along with me here''

 No.629339

>>629280
"Honestly, I bet its my crew causing that rabble."

Sigh, and start heading towards the noise.

 No.629353

>>629332
The sounds get louder and louder the more you travel into the city, AHA! Above you are two mighty ships, twice the size the Techicolor Foolz and these have a metal coating on them. The Lighting Hunters is easy to spot, their ship painted with a thunderstorm and their ship rocking with the sound of drums. The guards' ship is plain in comparison bearing only the name 'Zero Hopper' and the greenish goat tower emblem.

A small crowd has gathered here to watch and they almost overshadow you, but there is one Nanny goat with a fan that glances at you, and chats to another goat nearby.

>>629334
Ginger snickers. "Two of your crew are on a little private lunch, the lady of the pair wearing a very expensive looking get up. Butters said she was following her goat sense and would be okay alone."
>>629336
Leonis Stands tall and puts on his most 'proper' speech. "Ay- I mean, Yes. We don't have one. But we be.. in need of a fine dining table."
The goat hums to himself and checks a list behind the door. "Ah, we have a nice balcony seating, on the third level, available for lunch, are you interested Sir and Maim?"
>>629339
Its growing fainter by the moment as you work your way through the crowds. It might be hard to get there in time…

 No.629357

>>629353
Sigh.
"I will have to start looking for another beast expert soon, won't I?"
Pick the compass up. Where is it pointing me?

 No.629358

That's what I have wings for. Take to sky and follow the scent of smoke.

 No.629359

Put my little pan in front of me.
Time to blend in as I watch how the battle goes.
Start strumming the guitar.

She raises an eyebrow
''Only on the…third level?'' She looks up at the tower, measuring it with a long hum
''I thought there would be a better seat for a fine lady and the impecable gentlecolt…But if you think this is as much as we deserve, very well…I will remember to report this back to the captain and his men about how our proud people stand in such a low raking by your standards'' She lifts her snout and slowly walks inside ''Come Leonis my dear'' she pulls him closer, walking at a gracefully slow pace

"Another?" Ginger frowns but the Moogle Makes an energetic gesture and perks up at the idea.
The compass says you can track: a thief guild, a smith recruit, or surprise side quest
>>629358
Of course, this gets you above the ground bound members of the crowd and eases your traveling, you spot the two ships battling it out, both metal plated and twice the size of your own vessel, one has paint decorated like a thunderstorm on the side, and one has a simple green stripe and green tower, the emblem goat cities.
They thunder storm vessel is slowly making headway out of the city.

>>629359
A few members of the crowd sing along to your tune, getting the words totally wrong, and clopping their hooves at the wrong times. The Lady goat has inched closer to you in the crowd to the point where she and her servants are nearly on top of you. She is giggling and waving her fan over her snout. You can see now she's a little bit older.
>>629362
The butler goat sighs, and pulls over a waitress goat, they whisper a bit and he turns back to you. "There is a place on the fifth floor that will be opening up in just a moment, if that would be more acceptable for the lady."
The interior is just as classy as you expected, crystal chandeliers shimmering and spreading soft light into the velvet carpeted' room, the decorations are classy vases, high quality wood siding, and tables. A few floating trays allow the wait staff to take on lager order alone. There is a bar on the inner circle where you see well dressed customers sipping on drinks.

 No.629389

She rolls a coin in her hoof and leans down close to you smiling kindly. "Aren't you hungry dear? Do you want something to eat?"
>>629377
The wait is pleasant, the scent of perfumes and a clean room, the fresh salad and toasts wafting a relaxing aroma, gentle music plays from somewhere and everywhere at once. "As long as its good enough for you my Princess." The lovestruck unicorn replies.
After a short wait one of the goat staff attends to you, a smallish female goat this time, she looks to be about 30 and is confident and cheerful to you both. "Sir, Maim, your table awaits you, if you would please follow me.. I'm Nancy and I'll be serving you today."

>>629380
The tan diamond dog smiles at you and tightens her bandanna, replying with a calm. "Aye! been a while since I had a proper adventure that weren't firing at a flying squid."

>>629382
You land on a tower nearby and duck behind its strong stone walls, quickly discovering its actually half full of eager young goats trying to watch the battle.

The lady goat picks up your hoof in hers. "Come then, lets get you something.. Something with a bit of 'crunch' " and she tries to urge you along with her.. It looks like the thunder storm patterned ship is managing to outrun the goat guards' ship. The sound of their drums are growing a bit more distant. You can see some pegasi kicking the air in frustration above the goat ship.
>>629391
"Buuut the action!"
"We're safe up here!"
"Yea, we're not too close!"
"Its impossible not to look at something like this!"
"It is a little scary thou.."
"Don't be a wimp!"
>>629393
"Onions are okay, but I like them over rice and wrapped in spinach leaves." She replies as you go through the city toward the shimmering tower. Andy the Moogle hesitantly stays back with the loot stash while you go.
The ground shakes a little under you when you get closer and most of the crowds are inside. A faint scent of water is on the air here. Ginger looks concerned. "..There isn't supposed to a lake or anything over here.."

 No.629408

>>629406
I guess they managed to get away… and hey, some food is nice!

"If there is anything I can do to make your visit with us more comfortable don't hesitate to ask!"
Following the goat lady up the stairs to the fifth floor, you notice that there are many curtains that 'seclude' each of the balcony areas she peels back the curtain for you to step inside to a heavy wooden table with a silky table cloth, the table set with a decorative cloud sculpture of a cat sitting as the center piece. Leonis seems overwhelmed at first, but with a slight cough from the waitress he pulls out one of the chairs for you to sit at.

>>629408
roll 3d4 for how much coin you collected. She's taking you to the nearest nice place to get food, which is a stand with a variety of quality foods, smoked veggies, carrot sticks and cheese, a wide variety of icecreams with 'extra crunchy cones'.
"Oh, I just can't stand to see a young kid suffer. Do you have a favorite food? Perhaps something you had a home? Oh, look they have icecream." Her attendants are keeping close as well.
>>629409
"Hmm its happens once it a while."
"Happens all over the world."
"A lot more interesting than monsters"
"Monsters are really awful, this is just a good clean ship fight, don't hurt much."
"And someone might get caught!"
They laugh a bit and look disappointed when they thundercloud painted ship seems to be getting out of sight.

>>629411
There is a shrimpy looking earth pony running around looking in each door way and speaking to everyone inside. There are some guards lazily walking around, and a bit of water is pooling up around the base of a tower with runic flags decorating it.

 No.629425

She giggles a classy kind of held back giggle. "You are adorable. Sir, we'll have the sampler platter, with a nice vanilla scoop on a crunchy cone for dessert."
"Coming right up Miss."
The goat behind the counter passes on the order and soon there is steam rising from behind the stand and another goat grilling while one slices and pours various things.. and finally the original goat from the counter scoops out a vanilla icecream and asks you. "And what topping would you like on that lad?"

>>629430
"Pfft this isn't dangerous! Its just a ship, long as the cannons don't fall on you its fiiine." one of the goats says with a cocky tone.
The way back is smooth enough, there is a ragged looking goat kid getting some lunch bought for him by a nanny goat. On a cloud just under you is a ragged looking chocolate colored bat pony mare. She appears to be trying to sleep.
>>629433
This quarter has towers made or marbled stone, they shimmer aren't built too high. The one with water leaking around its base is similar, but uses a reddish colored brick and has dark purple flags with bright green and orange 'runic' writing on them. The center of this quater has a very tall and thick tower made with sliver and golden material, but it seems to not have a door. The quarter here is relatively small actually, having less than 15 buildings in total, the runtish earth pony stallion has already covered the area and comes over to you out of breath. "Ah, Um, Hello. Can you tell me if you've seen someone, a goat. A goat with a very very fancy scarf, he's got white fur and orange spots and-" he stops talking out of breathe.

 No.629439

As for the Bat Pony,

I try not to giggle at bothering her.

 No.629445

>>629423
She gracefully sat down at one and looked at the sheep, not even bothering with a menu
''I would like a simple cucumber and tomato salad along with a vegetable soup for us to share, does that sounds good Leonis?'' She leans on her hoof with a smile.

 No.629446

>>629439
I could just pinch those cheeky cheeks of yours little goat.
The goat running the stand laughs and puts some of everything on the cone before handing it to you and giving the tray of goodies to one the lady's attendants.
>>629440
"Short Scroll sir, and its very important that I find him.. Clarence is the only one who can get my stubborn boss to listen to reason.."

>>629443
the bat mare opens a yellow cat eye at you and groans. "Can't you see its noon! I'm exhausted."

You gobble it up like a starving little goat, its creamy and smooth and sweet and crunchy. It settles in your belly and makes you want to bleat with delight.
"Oh, please try some of the other things while we walk, we simply must get you out of this sun and into a proper bath.."
One of the attendants lowers the platter to your level so you can easily see it. There are a variety of steamed, grilled and fresh veggies. Cheese, Ranch, Peanut Butter, and Sour cream for dips, a small personal salad, a pile of toast: at least three different colors of bread! and butters and jams for you to use on them. The group is urging you on somewhere else in the city, maybe to get more free goodies!
>>629448
The stallion nods with a heavy sigh. "That's the long and short of it. You sure are a lot smarter than you look. No offense of course."
>>629449
She grumbles. "The goats are always practicing their climbing on those. I figured up here, at least they can't jump on me." With a stretch she sniffs the air. "Got any fruits? You smell a little citrus-y.."

"Hmm yea, soup is great. And some bread too."
"Bread is complimentary sir."
He chuckles a bit "Ahaha, then I want that compliment bread. And a salad for me too."
"And what would you like to drink?"

>>629452
You keep moving after the tray of goodies, past buildings and goats and ponies. The scent of the air gets cleaner, there is more plant life around, and a few well kept green patches of grass. Your group stop briefly at a gate, which is opened after a short delay in which the old nanny seems irritated. An earth pony with a suit and tie approaches the group.
"I'm so sorry for the delay Madam, it was completely my fault."
"Its fine, tell my husband that we have a special guest." She nods towards you before stepping forward. Looking up you see a lush hilly yard, trees with apples in them, and the center of the whole enclosure, a very tall stone mansion, its so clean looking its as if it had never been climbed.

"Uh, a lemonade.." He says looking over the choices quickly.
"Of course, I'll have those for you right away. Please enjoy your stay."
The view from up here does lift your spirits, and the sight of the orange unicorn sitting awkwardly in his seat and smiling at you is lightening as well.

"This is my estate dear, you need to get cleaned up right away.. You poor adorable thing, what's you name?" She dotes on you and leans down to see your face better.

"Well, flapjack. You can't very well meet Lord Suri if you're not dressed, it simply won't do. He's such a traditional stallion."

>>630444
"Ye handled the ruins most boldly, Dania." He comments eagerly and sighs onto the wind. A staff member sneakily sets your glasses and a plate of warm sliced bread down, complete with a little plate for the butter, and two little plates for each of you to use. You hardly even saw them and from Leonis's blink of surprise he didn't see them at all.
"You were really brave carrying the golem core away back then."

The goat lady giggles and waves her fan in her face. "Why, he's my husband we've been married for so long now.. I'm Lady Suri, Lady Vennia Suri the 4th, but you can just call me Miss V." She stand properly with an excited sparkle in her eyes. "You are just prefect! I can't imagine he won't like you, but to be sure we should bath you and get you into a proper shirt and coat.."
Without waiting for you to object or agree she nods and trots toward the manor. "Come along Flapjack."

>>630447
"Uh.. that makes ye all the more brave, bein' not as strong as the captain' and all.. ye didn't act scared of anything."
The drink is kind of sour and milky, as expected from coconut water, but the scent gives you a refreshing feeling as you drink.

"Nice to meet you, Missus V! Thanks for calling me perfect, but perfect for what?"

She was okay with sour, but this drink needed a lot of more sugar.
She looked around at the table to see if they had any sugar. if not, she would call Nancy to provide some
She giggles at his comments on her bravery
''Brave you say?…No I don't think so Leonis…there are much scarier things than facing a dungeon with monsters…'' Her smile fades away into a more neutral expression as she places a hand on the knife, catching a glimpse of her own reflection on it before cutting up a slice of the bread

 No.630451

>>630449
She hums pleasantly as the servants open the door for you both revealing the plush carpet of the manor, and the scent of polish hitting your nose, after that a light scent of flowers and lemons. At your question she gives you a concerned expression. "..Flapjack do you have any family?"

>>630450
There is a bowl of sugar cubes with a small spoon in it for scooping out, your drink will be sweeter as a candy bar after a few of these melt away into your glass.
"Aye.. yet we didn't see some of the truly terrifying beasts. The things of legend like the cat sith, deadly fast, cat like reflexes, a body like a diamond dog but skinnier and with a tail of a lizard. Ruthless to anyone who crosses its path. Those who've looked into the eyes of one and survive say they can never sleep properly again."

she barely heard what he said when she got lost in her own little sugar world. putting three sugar cubes on her cup before looking around
''Oh is that so? have you ever saw one? I'm certain you could wrestle one down to the ground if you tried'' SHe smiles. and once she made sure no one was looking, she popped a sugar cube in her mouth and giggled…then put three more in her cup…this sheep really loved sweets…

The carpet is kind of bouncy yet soft and lets your hoof sink in just a bit before springing back up just as it was before. Missus V nods and pats your back and gently guides you down the hall, past doors and the movement of servants from place to place. "I see.. Well there's no need to worry while you're here."
>>630452
"I haven't seen one, but the stories even give me chills. They say its so fast that even a trained assassin can't handle it."
Soon your salads and soups arrive, the scent of the vegetable soup with the tomato base overpowering the light fragrance of the leaves and dressing. Your waitress Nancy in a polite tone asks. "Is there anything else I can get for you right now?"
Leonis is practically drooling and stabs his salad immediately.

"You're a brave child Flapjack, do you like.. airships?" She guesses at a thing you might like as she approaches a door.
>>630456
She gives you a smile before leaving again. "Ah, I like that one as well, I'll bring it around when you're ready for it."
The soup is thick and creamy, its veggies stirring around happily and soaking in the rich flavor of the seasoning that was used, but are still firm enough to bite and give you a pleasant texture.
The bread would be nice to dip inside of this, you think, but a bit uncouth to do.. and then you see leonis dipping a slice of bread into his soup and eagerly eating it, he looks really happy with the meal.

At this the servant earth pony that was following you chuckles along with his Lady's giggle.
The door is opened and you see a room with a bed, the sheets are air-ship print, the walls have various creatures painted on them in colorful style, the floor has toys, toys of airships, a toy train set, a box of blocks, a set of pose-able toy goats, sheep, and ponies with little armor suits on, they have different tiny weapons they can hold.

You feel strong hooves catch you as you faint, and the vague doting tone of the Lady goat.
A few moments later you wake up in that magical room of wonders and see the butler pony kneeling next to you. "Feeling okay Flapjack?"

there was a sparkle in her eyes as she slowly picked up the dessert spoon and slowly, veeeeery slowly, cut off a piece of the mousse and brought it to her lips, the second it touched her tastebuds, she lets out a gutural moan, her eyes rolliong back a bit as she places a hoof on her blushing cheeks. ''OoooOoooh M-mercy…''

You hop off the bed, using the coils to boost you all the way up to the top of the book shelf and the butler pony is left behind on the ground with a scowl of determination. He moves the chair over and uses it to help himself get up higher. "You're going to get your ears scrubbed exceptionally hard, young Flapjack." He threatens you.

He scoots a bit closer to you, the chair scraping against the floor, and the table giggling as he awkwardly fumbles and tries to cover for it by looking more imposing leaning his shoulder back and tensing his muscles. "Aye.. lets share."

And so, the excited crew of the Techicolor Fools spent their day shopping, visiting the various towers that were each like their own individual world, navigating the crowded streets and clouds. They arrived back at their ship in the evening, at some point procuring a set of paints to use on their ship. But the smallest member of their crew was nowhere to be found, the little goat buttermilk skies, and all her best musical instruments were left behind.


Flapjack.
You've been playing chase with the butler for hours now, but he managed to get you cleanish, and into a blue and frilly sailing outfit. He sighs adjusting his tux back into place and looks at his watch.

The sound of your music fills the room, the violin sings to your soul, resonating loudly and echoing down into each room.
You hear hooves in the distance, but don't bother to look at them, the violin needs your attention, you hear a voice start to speak "Flap-" and then it stops short gasping at your harmony with the song.

The streets are empty merchants and shoppers now, only those going home, or those tired souls that are simply returning to work another shift still wander here. The soft lights illuminating the stones, showing higher quality ones as you go on, a bit of marble mixed in, a few pillars of marble even. An occasional beggar on a corner looks at your group, confused about why you are following a compass perhaps.
There are gated off plots of land now, usually centering a tower with its own personal spark of light, colored any shade of the rainbow. Goat guards are wandering around wearing different armor than the city's own guards, and they seem a lot less worried about anything.

Approach one of the guards and politely clear my throat
''Excuse me sir, did you happen to see a small goat, this tall, brown and spotted, red hat and big smile on her face hoping around somewhere?''

"I think you just described every goat maim' "
"What's the kid's name?"

Don't even open my eyes, just finish it as it is meant to be!

 No.638921

 No.638925

"When your 'mere tools' bring us ship, loot, hidden temples, new friends and supplies like my compass did, you will get to question it!
And what kind of dense wood do you have in your noggings, talking to guards about our butters?"
Knock her on the head.

 No.638926

>>638925
''Ouch, hey now, have some manners, it is better to ask than to blindly go around looking for her I thought, but very well, if you trust your compass so much, let us go to where it leads us''

 No.638927

>>638921
They laugh.
"Don't be silly No one would be dumb enough to rob this area."
"Yea, we're not city guards anyway, so its not our job."
"Well. I mean, if we saw it we'd still stop it from happening."
They keep moving on from you.
>>638918
It really is a nice big city, trading is a bigger deal than you imagined in this world. But then again, this isn't even a capital.
>>638922
>>638925
The compass is pointing towards the gate melded with Suri on the top. The stone fence is too high to see over, and there is a bell on the side of the gate.

When you finish the piece the lady goat, and an elderly male goat are standing there watching you in excitement and awe, the butler earth pony is standing back with an approving look.

"Um… hello?"

 No.638932

''Ah, the captain is just being himself, I learned to not bother, why do you think Butters admire him so much? You can see it in his face that he is just as chaotic as she is''

The elder stallion is wearing a suit and adjusts his monocle at you. "Good evening Lad. I'm Lord Suri. I see that Clod has helped you get situated, and you even have a few talents."
"Isn't he just the perfect kid dear?" Miss V, the lady you came here with says with a doting tone.

>>638929

The nanny goat and the butler await your respond quietly.

We are down to just three.
I guess I can stop and pick up sunday or the next time more of you are free.

"Just like a lad. If you're done playing put the violin back, we can discuss your.. monster over the meal waiting on us."

 No.638975

Slowly push her away, slightly grossed out.
"And why would they even let us in after that!
No, we need some convincing reason! Like…"
Look at Dania with a grin.
"Being representatives from the sheep kingdom!"

"Hmm of course. Do you know many songs Flapjack?" Lord Suri says as he starts to walk to the dining area.
"I could have song books brought up for the boy Sir." the butler, aparently called Clod, says.
"Oh, Clod. I totally forgot about my appearance thursday. Did you?"
"Taken care of, I have Miss Prose finishing you a new dress, and you have an appointment to get it fitted on your calander, and I picked out a selection of greeting cards for you to review after dinner.."
She hums pleased in reply. "What would I do without you."

You kind of know what one looks like, but the ruffly collar isn't possible with this kind of shirt, so you just wind up unbuttoning it a bit.

>>639005
Having much more experience with help, you shape him up to at least look like a proper butler, and you cover up the bauble in his mane when you fix it to a more formal style.
Its passable at least.

>>639001
"Oh, a friend musician?" The stallion says with a tone that you can't tell if he's interested or not.
You can smell the food before you see it, the longest table you've seen in ages, all set for three places, and covered dishes on the table while a maid ponies quietly lurk by.

"…probably storm the place…"

 No.639036

They both look rather surprised at your response. The stallion looking a bit offended but he sits down at the head of the table. The Lady sits at his side, letting the butler pony slide their chairs in for them. One of the maids slides your chair in as well and looks twice at you, as if deciding whether or not you need a booster seat, you can just barely reach everything on the table.
"Tonight we have a tomato and onion soup, the prench bread, a selection of spreads: peach, orange, grape, a spinach and brocoli salad with shredded wheat and steams on the side for the Lady, A cornmeal dish as requested by the Lord…" He describes the foods as he reveals them, the steam rising up from the meals and the Lord and Lady carefully deciding which of selections they want to have first, which seems to be almost all of them.

I was lured in by instinct, I just KNOW there is something peculiar about this place that makes it stand out in the city and I just had to come see, Silver Plate, come in now, don't be shy, come come'' I call to Arrid to join my side as I waltz inside

The maids actually struggle to keep up with your appetite, setting down dish after dish for you to eat, and wiping away the mess you make in between meals.
The old couple is staring at you a bit, but makes polite meaningless conversation about their day.
>>639059
>>639066
The stallion does let you inside the yard, but seems skeptical about your rationality. "Maim, I'm sure you're aware that this is the estate of Lord Suri, a very fine and unique piece of architechure built by Hans Foster 140 years ago, but you can't just barge into the place unannounced.."
Would you like to add some kind of.. intimidate or bluff to this?

I'll just ignore the untrained thing for today since someone doesn't have a sheet.

''Why Silver Plate darling have you heard what he said? we cannot come in unnanounced? My my that seems like he did not hear you…Well that is dismaying, so allow me to make sure he properly understands'' I ignore the stallion for a moment as I talk to Arrid before finally turning to the stallion
''Dearie, let me introduce myself, I am Lady Cashmere, daughter of Baron Amifio N. Clause III himself, and appointed as the official Ambassador by King Lininas himself'' I strike a little royal pose
''Now that we are aquaintanced, I should let you know, that I did not like the tone in your voice mister, saying I'm 'Barging' in and 'Unnanounced', no no that does not makes me feel as welcome as I believe I should be…''
Shake my head dismissively
''I believe you are aware of what happens if I am not feeling quite comfortable and welcome. You see, I was considering returning to my humble abode this lovely evening and write a letter back to the kind himself telling him about how marvelous this city is…But it would be quite a pity if this lovely trip today was ruined, why I could turn that letter of praising into a message telling Lininas himself about all my discontent with this particular place, and I am not sure of what the kind himself might do if he heard such disapointing news…Why he might even be so upset to cut the supply of wool that is imported from our kingdom to this place…And I saw how many clothing shops you have around this place, Oh ho ho believe me I did, and I'm certain no one would want to lose such a precious part of the market…''

"Oh. Lets go to the sitting room, we can listen to Flapjack play and you can catch up on the paper."
"Hmmph very well then. Clod, bring the violin to the sitting room please."
"Right away sir." The butler bows and suddenly seems gone.
You hear a distant but strong ring, but neither of them pay it more than a moment's head. Their dishes all cleared away from them, they stand up daintily.
>>639097
>>639112
The goat hops in alarm, and nods a bit. "Right.. Forgive me Lady ..Cashmere, I didn't realize.. ehem. I'll escort you inside then." He guides you down the main path, past the plum tree and to the door, where a stallion in a plain tux greets you, and not Chance or the guard who look anxious.
"Good evening Maim."
"Uh.. this is.. a sheep ambassador. and she insists on.."
"Hmm is that so.. well a sheep is quite a rare thing, would you like to come inside my Lady?"

You hop after the couple and arrive at the sitting room, there are shelves lined with books, books with tasty paper, and the chairs look so comfortable and nice, not a stain or scratch on their refined material. Lord Suri has a seat and as a maid offers you the violin from earlier.

Behind your group is a the sound of a group of three approaching the butler and.. Dania and a pegasus that looks almost like Chance..

>>639115
The soft carpet, the warm, clean air, the quality of wood used.. its not home, but its pretty nice, just what you'd expect of a noble.
>>639117
He just makes eye contact with you, a judging kind of look without revealing what he judged.

This place. It smells like money. They have fluffy carpet that bounces like new, polished wood flooring and siding, golden framed painting, the door nobs look antique or at least custom made. The butler nods to a goat guard who happened to be inside, and he starts to shadow you subtly.
>>639117
>>639115
You're led down past many doors and down the hall. Eventually you wind up at a room with book shelves and chairs and a soft fireplace. Appearing to have just sat down there is an older earth pony stallion, with a monocle and a nanny goat wearing a nice dress. With them is a young goat boy who is dressed in a fine sailor suit. A maid is offering the lad a violin.

With an audience and this awkward tight outfit its a little harder than you'd expect, but this violin and you have history. Whole Minutes of history even. That's plenty. You get the beauty to squeak out a peaceful song fitting of the mood.
>>639123
The stallion stands up and looks expectantly to his butler.
"Ah this is Lady Cashmere, she's an ambassador from the sheep kingdom, and wanted to meet you sir." and then he turns to you. "This is Lord Suri and Lady Suri."
The stallion does a half bow to you, "Welcome to our home Lady Cashmere, Its quite late, did you only just arrive here?"

Its a quiet evening in the luxurious home of the Suri's. Lady Suri, an elderly nanny goat, seems to have taken in a young boy goat who is very proficient at musical instruments. Lord Suri, an elderly earth pony reacts indifferently about the whole thing, but that might be his reaction to everything from what you've seen. The soft hum of the young goat's music still sings in your ears, and the sweet vanilla cake compliments the tea very well.
However the cake is nearly gone, and the fine rosewood clock in the room is sounding 9 o clock, the time when guests would be asked to leave or invited to stay, and you distinctly feel like you're going to be asked the former.

The guards look over to their lord for guidance and he sighs. "I'll call you if you're needed." They back off from the door, and only the butler remains as with them stubbornly refusing the leave.
"I trust this is private enough for you, Lady Cashmere?" The lord asks with an even tone.

Somehow, drawing weapons on an old nanny and telling her not to shout doesn't work, because she screams in fright before you can even finish. The butler pony circles around slowly so he's next to the lady and the lord pony just looks annoyed.

The mood in the room is extremely tense, the lady faints, the butler looks ready to pounce on you, and then one of the guards backs off, and the others look up at Lord Suri, who frowns and makes a gesture with his hoof, breaking the brief silence. "I'll go with you pirates, guards you stay with Lady Suri, and bring her an aspirin, she can't take this stress."

Inside is a writing desk crowded with papers and ink bottles, scenic paintings on the wall, and a closet door. The stallion approaches the closet door and reveals a numericly locked wall behind it, shining steel in the soft magical candles that float in the room.

The earth pony grumbles and slowly works the lock. Clicking in the numbers one by one.. 6.. 3.. 9..

 No.640026

>>640023
More goats come from the crowd that's quickly forming, a pony shouts "HEY YOU LEAVE SHOEHORN ALONE!" and tries to tackle you but is blocked by a goat.
You feel their soft hooves on you and swing wildly, the lights and the smoke in your eyes messing up your aim..
And then you feel yourself moving, they're trying to take you somewhere! You hear them explaining to you above the roar of the crowded room.
"Stop struggling."
"We're going to put you into a cell until you calm down."
>>640024
>>640025
You run toward the town with the pony on your back, the sheep lugging a crystal on hers, a hat full of gold coins, and the wind in your manes.
The bright lights and crowded streets of the buzzing entertainment district quickly making your pursuers lose you, or so you hope. Still you will probably get odd looks carrying this old man around.

The cool air comes rushing at you, and the darkness of the night sky, mixed with the energetic lights attached to the bottom of the signs and on the street fill your senses.
"We can't do that." Replies the pony- no wait this is a goat, and uniform is green..
You do see an odd group of equines running in the street nearby, a green pegasus carrying an old earth pony on his back, shouting at a blue and black sheep, a bleating goat kid, followed by a bat pony and a gryphon, the gryphon wearing the tackiest shirt you've ever seen, blue and orange tiger stripes? Really?.
"what the.." "Is that.." "Lord Suri?"
"SOMEONE STOP THOSE KIDS!"
And then all but one of the goats loses interest in you and runs after them.
>>640031
>>640030

You pass by a group of goat guards trying to subdue a diamond dog, and immediately a group of them start to chase you.

Adrenaline fuels your hooves, your fliers help by creating a tail wind to slow the goats, who are already in armor.
The docking towards are far enough, something will probably happen, or you can duck into a different road to try and lose them.
Roll luck or perception.

They did provide a distraction for you.. The group of them seem pretty coordinated in their escape attempt.. running toward the parked airships.. well there are a few things on the route there that could get in their way too.. maybe they are smugglers!

goat please, that's too many dice.
57 for you three.

You see a team of buffalo about to cross the street, they are hauling a large cart of metals, and a mirror. They don't pay your group any attention, too concerned about moving their cargo.
You are able to collectively get past this group and leave the guards behind unable to get past the pack of buffalo movers.

As you approach your ship you spot the diamond dog girl, Ginger, waving at you, and the side 'fins' moving indicate that Leonis is probably working on getting you up in the air.
The tower seems too long as your pumped up bodies tell you to move faster.
But you are able to get on board safely. The wood of the ship creaking under your weight.
>>640044
They all scurry up a tower and onto a ship. Its a modest vessel, something that you'd use for taking goods from town to town to trade, but its size should make it swift enough to get away from large threats, and the harpoons look new.

 No.640051

Grab my rope and tie it to the ship. So I can climb in. If it's leaving quickly, at least I'll be with them. Tie the rope around my waist too.

Quick now, rush to the ship's side, the one facing the pier, Lord whatshisname on my back!

Shout at our pursuers

And after making sure they are down there, kick the old goat off, like a stage diving rockstar, into the crowd!

Then, collapse on my back, laughing my ass off.

Quickly get to my tiny little banjo to start playing an upbeat song that fits the mood! Sing too!
"Found myself on the run again,
but my bicycle crashed into a barbed wire fence
I could’ve sworn you were following me,
in a run away Poniet Ballooner
I saw your face in the rear-view mirror,
I turn around and you're not there
Now I'm trapped in a goat tower and I'm tied to the top,
And I'm trying to make it out before the bomb goes off!

I think I know, it's like I've seen it all before
And I think I know
So please keep quiet don’t spoil the ending!"


Time to go hard on the drums for the chorus!

"I'm stuck !stuck! in a story now,
Feels like I'm stuck in a story!

Just as you fasten the rope to yourself, you find your body floating away.. the ship is taking off with you attached like some kind of dog-shaped anchor swaying in the night skies.

With a lucky breeze you escape the towering city of Piza, you see red alarm lights in the distance over the towers, but you're too far out and too small to catch now.

The sun hangs low on the horizon, you ship coasting westward at an easy pace now that you've left the trading town of Piza Towers behind.
Joyful music still ringing in your ears and your happy bellies still full of mead. The time to socialize and mingle is ideal, and you intend to full take advantage of that.
The ship itself has a number of rooms below, two crew bunk rooms, a captain's lodging, a dining hall, a sizable kitchen, a storage area that could be broken up into three decent rooms if you wanted, the matience area of course.
Milling around near the mast is a lady diamond dog with tanish fur and green eyes, she wears a bandanna and a vest: A golden furred unicorn is sitting at the table staring at crumbs of his meal and the quarter filled cup of booze: A cat-like creature with a pair of bat wings is floating around below deck.

"Hey there, you seem right at home on a ship, been part of a crew before?"
>>642291
You slide next to him in the dining hall and Leonis sighs, "Its that sheep.. She's so pretty and soft and.." He drinks another sip of his mug. "Bah, we had a good day didn't we Arrid?"
>>642292
Nuhuh you know about all of them.

"Hmm.. how can ye tell if a lass be wantin' that? We had a.. a date, I am pretty sure it be a date.. She seemed mighty happy too. But she's a princess.. So not like a normal bar wrench.."

The unicorn grunts and grins at you. "Ye might be onto somethin' thar. A sweet sheep girl like her, I can't be passing this up. I'll just ask her.." He stands up woozily and makes a pose with his hoof out.
>>642299
The little thing is wandering the halls below deck, humming to itself an old tune that you can almost recognize, something from a lullaby perhaps.
>>642300
"Ranged specialist. But I haven't really done anythin' yet, just joined up yesterday. Oh, and I can cook a decent gumbo out of leftovers and monster guts too. Ponies don't always think of stocking extra meat, so you gotta hunt for it and make due with whatever's around."

"There ye be, missy. I've been getting ready fer ye…"
He slowly stalks forward into the light, revealing a batpony clad only in a pair of tinted goggles, carrying several buckets of water, a coat-brush, and something bearing a strong chemical scent.
"So ye've brought a friend, eh? Nah' a problem; Ah've made extra, just in case…" His lips split into a wide, fanged grin as he sets all but one of the buckets down. "Naow hold steady, an' it'll be over and done…"

Today you have been sailing in the open skies for four days. You could say things have calmed down, but a wise pirate knows that the calm is the most dangerous time, it always comes before the biggest storm.
In the distance you hear a roar, a blast of canons and a screeching cry of some fierce beast. You see the shape of a ship, and the shape of many bathawks swarming it. Bathawks are much like they sound, fierce predators with claws, beaks, fur, and wide bat-like wings. They are extremely aggressive, but mostly a nuisance.

Okay. So anyone with ranged capabilities can do the harpoons, 1d20+whatever bonus you have to hit, and 1d8+1 for damage (applied to ship's hull), pulling a ship back is 40 feet a round for something 'light'.
cannons will require siege proficiency, might push that job onto Leon and Ginger. Otherwise you should declare which area of the ship you want to strike with them, which may have other affects on the battle with bigger ships.

You could try to hit some of the crew, but a dart will pretty much never hurt a ship.
Unless you're asking if you can use that bonus to make an attack with the harpoon, which you can.

You hit it, and put a dent into the back, but the ship's movement prevents it from catching, luckily with nothing attached, reeling back is instant, so you can try again right away.

"Bring it on dog! I might have a bone around here for you to chew on." The gem pony retorts back to you, once again bringing attention to you above the other pirates.
The unicorn isn't as well armored as some of his friends, and your spear runs through him with ease, his axe dropping to the ground with his body.

It works pretty well actually. The unicorn in front of you shouts at you "I AM GOING TO GET YOU YOU STUPID LITTLE GOAT!" his horn lighting up and his eyes turning into a glare.

It and all the NPCs do as well..
The northmost bathawk there dies with a shriek, and the southernmost one is forced to land by a weighted rope. One sheep with a spear comes to attack Dania, hitting her for 4 damage, the orange wool'd sheep has a rifle and takes a shot at the captain, but misses. The crystal pony distracted by the goat band misses in his fury. The middle bathawk flies up and draws in a deep breath.
The unicorn and crystal pony both rush for Argo. "Dirty dog. Coming on our boat." The crystal pony says and tries to attack him, failing, the unicorn however does land a hit for 6 damage. The unicorn fixated on butters doesn't do anything but keep shouting at her "You're a bad kid you know? I'm going to put you into time out below deck."
The sheep and crystal pony engaged with the captain do their best to exchange blows with him, landing a mere 8 damage between the two of them. The sheep takes the full force of the pegasus pony's attack and dies rapidly unnerving the crystal pony beside him.

Your second attack missed so its a good thing you didn't try to boost that.

The goat troupe is stopped by the crystal pony's presence, and can only move up this far, their sounds too far away from the pony to have a real effect. Your pony however is completely fustrated by your remarks and can't react properly to the little bouncing goat in front of him. "JUST STOP!"
The crystal pony shimmers with confidence as she lands a blow onto Agro, an amazing 10 damage. The pony next to her misses. The rifle wielding sheep is cowering in fear and can't move, the crystal pony next to the captain is also stricken with sudden fear and can not move.

The bathawk in the middle opens its beak, its fur shaking, and claws scraping at the air as it screeches loudly disrupting everyone around it and causing the ponies next to it shake in fear.

Eagerness sometimes can actually lead to greatness, this bathawk seems a little roughed up, but it was in the back behind its flock, so it has more fight left in it. Your slicing attack does tear its left wing a bit, it will have difficulty flying away now.

The remaining bathawk moves more to the center and puffs himself up full of air, he struggles a bit because of his injuries, and the unicorn and sheep crewmen step after him aggressively, the sheep apparently being out of bullets resorts to his sword to do some damage.
