Description:
Emerald asks why he doesn’t like Guards.
“Always causing problems for me is all. They always give me that sneer like I’m something on the bottom of their hoof. I can’t stand it.”
Emerald asks if Ruby is from Whitherwater.
“As far as I know, yeah. I can’t remember too much before being here, other than my mom and dad.” Ruby replies.
Emerald asks about his parents.
“They’re dead.” Ruby says conversationally.
Emerald apologizes, and says his are too, at least his real ones. Ruby smiles at the Emerald, and he smiles back. Emerald asks where Ruby stays.
“I gotta place I’m squattin’ in with a few stallions. They say I can stay as long as I cook and clean and stuff. Mind you there isn’t much food to cook usually but I do my best.”
Emerald asks what Ruby does for a living.
“I live for a living. For now that’s about all I can do. Get food where I can, beg for coins here or there… Trying to see if I can get into one of those factories on the south side. I hear it pays well.” Ruby says, and then stops when he sees a rather large crack in the wall that reaches from the top past the height of Emerald’s head.
The colt picks at the crack for a while, obviously trying to get something out of it. He looks around to make sure no one is paying attention, and then pulls out a strange, very thin, metallic gray rope that seems to go over the wall and is connected to something on the other side.
“Come on, get up it before someone sees!” Ruby cries, hoisting himself up the rope. Emerald is confused about how such a thin rope could possibly hold them both, but amazingly it does, and they both scale the wall and end up in a tree which the rope is attached too.
“There, see? Wasn’t this worth it?” Ruby says, pointing at the window of a nearby building.
Emerald looks in and then blushes slightly. It’s the locker room for the guards. the Men’s locker room.
