"Ain't much to date in a Royal Guard. They are married to their duty, after all.

"Let him in."
The assistant looks surprised, then annoyed
"Please go in. He is expecting you."

Nearby, a pale-coated pony trips over her uniform, dropping her luckily still empty tray.

And don't you dare spoil it by telling the faculty!"

[The Collection's location is not marked on any of the floorplans of the academy, unless there is a more complete version in the Canterlot Archives.
It has to be hidden in the sub-basements as the upper levels simply do not contain spaces large enough to hide it.
It could be linked to the Proving Halls, Underhalls or Catacombs, though the latter is unlikely due to the sacred nature of the catacombs themselves, and the risks involved.
I have yet to ever see the Proving Halls or Underhalls, but reaching the Dungeon is easy enough, and it should contain entrances to both.
There are unused marginal spaces in the ceiling structures and inside some walls left over from construction. These have proven invaluable for avoiding detection.
Stories mention the Dead Guardian watches over the Collection. This probably refers to the body of Highflanks.]

Very respectful and proper.
The Headmaster's office is a veritable collection of curiosities and trinkets. The headmaster himself is an older pony with a long wispy beard on his chin and a sharp, almost piercing look in his eyes
"Welcome, Cadet. What ails you?"

She dusts herself off
"Yes. Just got a little… distracted is all. Didn't look where I was going."

Yes, all different year uniforms are colour coded.
Gold and blue for cadets
White and blue for paladins
White and grey for sworn paladins
The maps show entry points to the dungeon, reliquary, bestiary and sanctum, all located in the basement levels, as well as three entry points. One by the custodian's room, another in a small corridor flanked by two large dressing rooms, and a third that leads outside.

"Thank you."
Seat myself.
"..Many reasons, I suppose. If I can, why not? To serve our rulers is to serve our whole nation, and to serve the nation is to serve the ponies. Well, not to mention the honour and glory with it, you know? Now, I understand that there are going to be lots of things I'll have to do, but… I'll do it. Heh… maybe I'll even bring some nice associations with my family name."

First of all they look at every cadet's performance scores, then interview those they deem good enough."

Depends on how well you can pass as a fully graduated paladin. Few even stay for a fourth year, and they all carry unique weapons.
Simply changing your clothes is not enough.

Straighten up.
"Well, my name's Cherry, I'm a bard.
When Sidus told me about the both of you,
I figured both of you could be the subject for a new song to write, to share your upcoming adventures with the world.
And to do that, I'd like to get to know the both of you.
So I can know how the song starts."
I show my kindest smile.

How the both of you met,
whatever you'd like to share.
I write it down,
follow your future adventures together
and once we've got enough material,"
I raise my hoof dramatically.
I'll turn it into a song every bard in Equestria will sing and everypony will know about Sidus and Burning, 2 lovers who braved all dangers and triumphed together…"
I lower my hoof and look down.
"But, of course, if you rather wouldn't have that,
I suppose I'll just have to find other ponies to write about…"

>>360063
"That would be nice… I'd ask to eat with you but really… I think I'll just have a little something and take a nap…"
>>360064
"I guess that depends on how comfortable Sidus is with the idea."
>>360065
"Not really. But I can keep your name in mind when the evaluators arrive.
There is some reading material in the library if you need it."
>>360066
"Well~
If you like the idea, I won't oppose it either."

I nod at Sidus and turn back to Burning.
"But you both have to agree with it.
If one of you rather wouldn't, I don't think I can make a good song.
Love is a central piece in my work, otherwise it would become just another unemotional song of praise."
>>360072
>>360075
"And what was the first spark?
Was it love at first sight or how did you feel?"

Still, cultural differences can be hard to truly overcome."

Dinner + train afterward I'll wrap this up.
"So how did you…"
I take a look around.
"Oh excuse me, maybe that's something we could discuss later. I'll have to write all of this down before next class.
Don't worry nopony will ever read those notes it except me and you two.
Other bards sometimes try to steal those notes for their own songs so it's best to keep them hidden."

What luck.
After you reach the support beams, there is a small space tucked away near a wall. Probably originally a part of some kind of storage space, but sealed off from the main room because it was not needed.
Someone even left a pair of blankets in there. So I guess you aren't the first ones to find it.

"Many things. For one, it is hidden away somewhere deep below the academy. I have only gotten so far in infiltrating those parts.
And I know that even if I did find the door, it is secured by many locks. Devious locks."
He pats the pillows next to him.

"Now, does anyone here know about Ursas?"
"You sure?

It really hurts to walk.
It probably really hurts to do anything right now.
She has clearly done this before. A lot.
>>361446
"Well I think you might want to focus on disarming first. How's that sound?"
>>361448
"Do share with us."
>>361450
He gives a half, faced grin and rolls over one pillow closer to you as well
"Oh yes. Or, so I've gleamed from the clues I have found.
Locks designed to be opened not with keys, but series of codes.
Numbers, symbols and the like."

Looks like Steamship is on duty today
"Good day cadet. What ails you?"
>>361456
"No. Almost a year in and I'm still far from it.
A tragedy, really."
He stops coming closer, but places a hoof on the pillow next to him.
>>361457
"Right. Now then, lets say you were unarmed, and I had my sword. How would you try and disarm me?"
>>361459
"Good start. Others?"
"They explode when they die, much like stars do."

"Easily said, but hard to pull off. As far as I know, the entrance is somewhere behind the dungeons, or at least below that level. It may be in the vicinity of the proving halls, but I can't find a way there."

Then again, you did break into the storage area to steal the pillows.
I like that. A girl who plays by her own rules."

We'll have a short break before the next lesson. Get some drinks, use the bathroom, stretch out, whatever."

"That's good to hear. I'm glad I could teach you how much it matters to find the right thing. And it must have took you great courage to train with that old geezer!"

"If you two had a fight, it's probably better to just air the dirty laundry, so to speak. If she's here, which she shouldn't be, since this is the male dorm, she probably already knows you're upset at her and that she should give you a little space for a while."
I'll glance around the room for a second.
"And I don't know how she'd get in here without me seeing her, since I've been sitting on that bed ever since I got here. And there are only so many places to hide in here."

Let out a deep breath.
"Let's just say earlier today we had an 'accident' which hurt her bad, but I did my best to make up for it and she forgave me.
Then, she said she wanted a new weapon style instead of her current one, that's why we were on the training field, remember? So she got some spiked gauntlets, and we started to train.
She started to lose, and then… something went wrong. Very wrong. Her eyes were burning with crazy. And yes, you got that part right, but this wasn't an accident, she knew where to hit to hurt. So I slipped up and knocked her out cold the first chance I had, then she got to the infirmary. And I got some painkillers too."
Nod my head towards the table.
"Found that note on my bed. Just put it away and started to get my mind off of things. She tried to help from the shadows, but I refused. Then she left that candy there and left. I think I upset her, but I'm pretty sure that I have every right to be upset at her at least for a while. It's not like I'm planning to abandon her."

I'll lean back a little against the headboard of the bed.
"Just one thing, Sidus. If my ma has ever shown me anything, it's that mares forgive, but never forget. So just remember that even something that seems unimportant can come back to bite you later."
