LAST TIME ON PRISON QUEST

Rickety Crimes and Vexillia were summoned to be informed by a mysterious pony that they had all been falsely imprisoned for a reason.

Except, as it turns out, Vexillia was a mistake. Evidence had apparently been found oh her 'innocence', and she was let out. In her place, however, a pegasus pony has appeared as Helga's cellmate.

It is the dawn of another day, and your cells have been unlocked. Silverleaf wakes up with Delia, while the pegasus and Rickety Crimes are in their cell. Helga and Brendak have just woken up as well.

>Sealing the seal with extra conductive material may help trap back power and inhibit such clamps.
