"Well, sir, I'm currently looking for work and was wondering if you had any positions available." The Pegasus said, making sure he appeared harmless. The less threatening he seemed, the easier it would be to hide in plain sight.

 

This stallion seemed to already have an opinion of him, possibly sizing him up as poor or perhaps easily led. Though his exterior didn’t change, the dark grey Pegasus smirked internally. Though he made note not to be overconfident. He, of all ponies, should know best that not all ponies are what they seem. This one might have a trick up his sleeve.

Noble Persona la Silvercolt

 

The morning sun felt nice… Noble Persona, current head of the Silvercolt family, laid back against a tree in his courtyard, reading a book in the peaceful morning. Well, aside from the explosion some streets away, but he didn’t let it bother him. It was practically his alarm clock by now. As he read the book, he felt a pang of longing… wanting to go on an adventure again. He had servants to help keep his business afloat and balance out the books. One such servant came looking for him, interrupting his thoughts before they reached drama levels.

 

“My lord?” She asked, almost making him drop the book.

 

“Ah! Oh, sorry. I was...I was lost in thought. What is it, Ms. Honeysuckle?”

 

“I’ve just heard that Princess Luna has left the castle. She’s meeting with a pirate captain of sorts. I’m rather concerned what this would entail.”

 

Noble thought about it for a moment. “It is a good reason to be concerned. We should send somepony to investigate the matter and find out just what he’s after. How soon can we have somepony down there?”

 

“I can have a Pegasus down there in around 10 minutes, give or take. You aren’t going personally, my lord?”

 

“No. The other nobles have enough to scheme about. It’s better not to put ourselves in unnecessary risk by having a high-profile target show up. Besides, the next batch of weapons should be ready soon and I will be personally overseeing the delivery.” Noble said, picking up his book.

 

Ms. Honeysuckle nodded. “Very well. Your usual refreshment, my lord?”

 

“Yes, please. Thank you, Ms. Honeysuckle.”
