(Spectra)
For now, Spectra would not focus on Yuma. It was clear that the more time would go on, the more awake and aware Yuma would be. Soon enough she'd be able to see what were happening with her own eyes once her mind got settled into its new position. As Spectra arrived at the docks she would search around for the boat - half expecting it to be gone. As she moved about she'd keep her eyes darting around. From the trees, to her sides - to all possible angles. It were a natural response from someone as skilled at combat as she. Perhaps it wouldn't so bad to put her new body to the rest. Though knowing Spectra, she preferred to avoid obstacles and move along merrily.
"There's no time to explain, there is someone dangerous on the loose here. My partner, the stallion I was with had been hung on a tree. I don't want the same happening to you. I have an idea of who it is or what it could be, and if what I think is true - you don't stand a chance on your own." Spectra said to the Zebra, not even allowing him any explanation based on what happened with the bodily transfer. He didn't need to know that. Spectra had a few spells at the ready here as well as her famous blade. Perhaps there would be a chance for blood to be spilled in it's name soon, after all. Because of Yuma's body, there would be no way for him to tell this was the same mare he had dealt with before.
It all depended on who was moving about and what they were planning on doing. Spectra didn't really care about the Zebra that much. He were a pawn. Pawns were useful. It were better that that they remain alive and do their part. If the Zebra were to perish here, it would be unfortunate. It would be annoying for her to go back, get Operata and teleport all the way across the river. Spectra could do it. She just didn't want to.
For now, Spectra would plan to stay with her back against the water - looking out over the trees at the ready. There were more time needed to determine what was at stake here.

(Stern)
"I remember something about the Guard actively searching for better veins of metal for many years. I didn't really think they would be able to find a better one, but hey, great to hear that they finally found it. I'm fine with the armor I have gotten, it's certainly an upgrade from the old stuff. It will do the job just fine on the mission I am going to be involved in." he nodded with a grin and then would address what else he said about being in Equestria. "I'll definitely be around to talk in the future. Let me just say that things are getting more dangerous and it's likely there will be some kind of incident in the near future so I would just be prepared if I were you. I have a lot of old stories to talk about, if I were to get into it, we'd be here all day." Stern Steel would chuckle, and then look over at the sword.
Looking over at the sword that had been prepared to him - he would take a few moments to look it over. It were glistening, fresh and at the ready. Stern would take it in his hooves and test out the balance of it. Then he'd see how well it were when put into it's holder on the armor. It was light. Better quality and better weight than the old stuff he worked and trained on years ago. Stern didn't seem to care that it were something that had been shave down from something else. He were just thankful that it were finished. "Razor sharp, light weight - just my style. You know, the training swords I had trained with were just awful things, really. Then when we got into the guard, we were given access to better stuff but none of that compares to this fine piece of craft here." he'd say, then testing it out how it stuck to the armor like a magnet. Even better than putting it into the holder. Made for a much faster way to be prepared for combat situations. It were the precious seconds in situations like that - that made the difference between life and death.
"I like that feature. Does that job. If that will be all, I have to attend some important matters. Thank you for the craftsmanship." he nodded in a respectful fashion, but it was clear he wanted report for duty and get involved with his mission. He were a guard after all.
If nothing else, he would return to the room with the Orbs - ready to join up with the other guards.
===============================================================
(Magloria)
Magloria would nod silently and follow out of the cafeteria. It were a nice cafeteria and she honestly did not mind mingling about the guards here. Just that her mindset was that she didn't like the Monarchy at all. Luna though - there were something about her that was different from Celestia. Perhaps Magloria thought that Luna wasn't so bad after all. Either way, Magloria were ready to see what had been done with the orbs in her absence.
Following into the large room the orbs were kept in she would observe the ones that were marked off. It were obvious that the Centaur, and the large dragons that were kept in larger orbs were put on the high danger level with warnings posted on their orbs. There were others who seemed to be put on some medium grade - which looked like they could possibly be dangerous. Regardless, Magloria would agree with Hailstorm's assessment. "Hm. Perhaps this one?" Magloria would ask, pointing to one of the orbs that had been marked off as a low level danger. Inside the orb, was Spoiled Rich - a business mare, a Canterlot upper-elite mare, actually. That one had been gone for the past 3 years. The mare weren't a dangerous sort in any least, was a rather high profile missing case, however. After it was found that her mansion in Ponyville had burnt down with no body or perpetrator being ever found. Of course, Magloria didn't know of the story. It were likely some of the other guards here would, however.
