The mare Blue left sighs and picks up her pick and resumes working.
Angrily, the changelings turn to Blue but her changeling escort gets them to stand down. They scoff at her and roll up their whips, resuming their duties.
The whipped stallion trembled from the painful lashes across his body. His wounds bled.

As soon as the changelings were gone Blue released the shield and concentrated her magic on healing. The stallions pain was gone almost instantly and his wounds slowly closed up, not leaving even the slightest mark. "Are you ok?" She asked and panted once.

The stallion stands up nervously and stares at Blue. "W-what was...why did you do that?"

"Um... I need to ask you a few questions..." Blue said, although it must be pretty obvious that its just an excuse. She was silent for a little bit, than spoke up. "There was a mare with a serious head injury taken from around here some time ago, do you know anything about it?" she asked.

"Her? I didn't know her name, but she worked right there." he points to a spot just across from himself where another pony is working now. "I was busy digging when I heard her scream out in pain. I turned just to look and saw her bleeding on the ground from the head and her own pickaxe lay next to her. I saw a burly looking changeling running off pretty quickly too..."

"We can finish this conversation in private if you wish, away from the wardens eyes and ears." Blue interrupted him with a suggestion. She didn't want him getting into trouble.

"um..y-yeah. H-he might be watching..." the stallion nods. The changeling takes the stallion's hoof and guides the two of them to a small hole that was going to be a tunnel but wet mud was found inside and there's no value in that form of dirt. He lets the two inside and places up a magic barrier so the two can't go anywhere.

Blue looks around. "There... Before, you said he might be watching, do you know who did it?" she asked.

"He...he's often called 'Smasher', because he's...good at that. He's usually just smashing things to be intimidating but I've never...seen or heard of him smashing a pony before."

Blue coughed a bit, covering her mouth with her hoof before she did so. "Sorry. What is your name? Do you know at all why he would run from the scene? I mean..." she looked away. "...we are less than dirt to most of them, i doubt there are any repercussion for a changeling needlessly killing a pony." Now that she was not under the changelings eyes the full gravity of the mines got to her, she started to shake a bit.

"But he doesn't work here! His job isn't based here in the mines! He's one of the slave peddlers. He brings in his own captives and sells them for a profit!...like me...but not her! He never owned that pony, he should be a criminal for that!"

@midnight Shallow Heart takes a look at Chrysteel and nods. "Yes, we were about finished before you fainted." she chuckles. "I hope you don't mind but I took a couple extra blood samples to keep around. The one I took from you had...expired when I took my attention elsewhere."Chrysteel nods in understanding. " Did you find anything interesting? By the way, Caretaker Shallow Heart, you wouldn't so happen to know what a flutter pony is? When I fainted, I was confronted by a being calling itself a flutter pony. It said beware the curse of the flutter pony. It also said to save the changelings one of mixed blood must grow. After that I woke up before I could ask it anything. I just thought I would ask you." Chrysteel seams to be back to her old self now but she still shows no signs of remembering her little episode before fainting. she does remember fainting though by the seam of it.

"...I'm sorry, a what? A flutter pony? I've never heard of such a thing. I think you were just having a dream, sweetheart." Shallow waves it off. "I haven't noticed anything more interesting than the odd cells in your blood."

"He...he's often called 'Smasher', because he's...good at that. He's usually just smashing things to be intimidating but I've never...seen or heard of him smashing a pony before." Blue nodded. "Thank you for your cooperation. You may go." she whispered and thought of her next course of action.

"O-Okay...I'll get back to work now..."
The stallion is let out by the changeling escort and the changeling approaches Blue. "So..how'd it go?"
