 * The tavern's barkeep notices Strongheart and slides down the counter. He eyes the unicorn as he wipes a tankard clean.*

Barkeep: Welcome to the Timber Fang. You look like a first-timer... What can I do for ya?

* ''There is some muttering as the tavern's eyes find Goldfin. The patrons—a gaggle of ponies, bat-ponies, griffons, and even a couple minotaurs—glance occasionally at the two newest visitors, but at least nobody has drunkenly raised any attention yet. The band in the corner adds a plodding background melody fitting the candlelit interior as several card games continue their flow.''*

* ''Eventually, Glaive and the dark blue phoenix touch down on a skyscraper's rooftop in Maretropolis. Glaive pulls a slim device from his pocket and taps some commands on its screen—moments later, a 3-D hologram of Captain Orbit is projected, and Glaive shows it to Nycto, who has perched on a low wall.''*

Glaive: Nycto, this is Captain Orbit. Apparently he's been on a trip to Draynia, north of Vanhoover.

* Next to be projected is a map of Equestria, and Glaive points out Draynia's location.*

I need you to do some hunting for me.

* ''Glaive produces his secondary communicator and slides a small audio recording device out from its side. He presses another button and begins recording.''*

Captain Orbit, this is Glaive...

* ''...A minute later, Glaive has finished his message. He ties the recording chip to Nycto's leg, and the tall bird gives a questioning squawk.''*

Glaive: Get this to Orbit, Nycto. Bring him home.

* ''His orders acknowledged, Nycto gives a bird-of-prey scream and leaps into flight. The slender phoenix turns and glides toward Draynia.''*
