 * It certainly takes Goldfin some time to return from her drop-off. She keeps her ponies waiting on the scale of minutes! Nevertheless, she returns to the harbor with a triumphant flip.

Goldfin: "I got him! How's that for catch of the day?!"


 * She splashes down and then launches herself ashore, landing mere feet away from the Ponymobile.


 * The ancient brig groans as it coasts away from the mangrove marsh. As it makes its ungainly way for sea, Dollpony may spy a matte-black speedboat being carried off the aftercastle, newly revealed by the setting sun. It is likely Manta's mode of transportation.

Death-Stalker: "The Gravity Gun and some other armaments may be a total loss, but the Death's-Head will keep us on the move. Make way for full sail."


 * Manta uses this time to speak over whatever communications device is built into his diving suit.

[Whirr]

Draft Manta: "Manta to Bird. We are going for a cruise. Hold position until further notice. We are preparing to land the Big One."


 * On the way, Goldenheart and companion pass by the trappings of school days—posters for student council campaigns, magic fair presentations, and textbook buyback offers from the bookstore.


 * Following the checkerboard tile floor as directed, they soon find exactly the pony they are looking for: a radiant princess with a flowing mane like the sky at dawn. She is bidding farewell to a greasy-looking unicorn with a trim beard and a medallion attached to his robe.

Princess Celestia: "And have a pleasant evening. I look forward to seeing the new guidelines reflected in the annals of the EEA."

Flashfire: "Whoa, this is a villainous team-up outing now? Not that I'm any more partial to what Mecha-Mouse plans for the stone, but this is taking a turn I didn't expect."


 * She returns to the edge of the void, expecting Scratches to be no more trustworthy than Shaitan.
