Description:
Emerald agrees to stay behind, but quickly asks for a board game or two to pass the time. Joyride pulls out what looks to be a checker board, and the two play checkers for a bit. Ruby doesn’t know the rules at first, but she picks them up quickly.
They each win two games and are about to play the match breaker when Hope appears from out of the doorway. Emerald and Ruby quickly shovel the pieces into Emerald’s bag and they all make their way over to the mess hall.
Luckily there is an area where the Ponycare agents and guards are allowed to eat in peace. If Emerald had to guess though, it’s not for any particular comfort reason, but because the workers have to shovel down their food quickly to get back to their shifts. The three are handed clean, slightly dented metal trays onto which a scoop of mashed potatoes, greens, and beans are placed.
The food is alright, actually. Nothing special, but it is nice and filling.
Emerald asks how she is, and if the bandits gave her any trouble.
“Well, not me in particular, but they did attempt to raid us several times. Occasionally they got away with stuff, but for the most part we made it out alright. Now that we are properly camped and fortified we shouldn’t have any problems with them. Hopefully….” The mare says, looking down towards the colt.
Emerald says he wants to show her some spells!
“No spells at the dinner table, you can show me afterwards.” She says with a kind smile and a nod.
Emerald beams.
End of Chapter 36!
