Ebony returns to his desk, setting down a vanilla folder with
several stamps of the Royal crown, the word "Confidential" shown
in black ink. "Just one? Was it in Saddle Arabia, Equestria? Did
he say what his task was?" Before he could let Tinder answer the
captain gets up and trots over to her, removing the cuffs from
her ankles and placing it on the desk. Returning to his seat he
looks over to the mare for her answer.

Tinder smiles as the cuffs are removed, glad to be able to move
her hooves freely again. Taking this second to reach into her
bag and grab the bottle, taking two pills from it and then
putting the bottle back. She holds them in her hoof and nods,
"Yeah, it was in Saddle Arabia, and he did indeed say what his
task was." She figures that he already knows what the task was
so she doesn't bother to elaborate, just pops the pills into her
mouth and swallows as she watches him.

"I'm assuming it was the town of Calais. Take out a rogue
General leading the insurrection." He reaches over and opens the
folder, attached to the side of it are photos of the town after
the flooding. The buildings are badly damaged, structures torn,
if looked at carefully enough, bodies can be seen floating in
the water. Ebony flips the folder around and slides it to Tinder
for her to look. "Things didn't go as planned, he succeeded in
killing the general but at the loss of the whole town. What he
didn't know at the time was that Calais produced a third of the
country's crops. The Saddle Arabian government placed the blame
on his target, destroying whatever support was left for the
resistance." The captain leans forward, his tone becoming more
somber, "There are those who believe otherwise, and are still
looking for Foxtrot to get information about that day."

Tinder takes the folder with her magic to look at the pictures,
she hadn't realized the amount of damage he had caused. He told
her the story but she hadn't pictured it like this. She
continues to look at the picture as she speaks, "I know they are
looking for him, that's why we met. He was running and I helped
him get to safety. But I really don't know where he is, so I
don't know how I can help you."

Ebony remains silent for a moment, thinking of what route to
take in this situation. The captain gets up, and trots over to
the side of his office to a giant map of Canterlot, several
marks and numbers are drawn throughout it. "Canterlot is a big
bucking town to get lost in. But why here? Why Canterlot?
There's too much risk involved coming here..." The noctral looks
over to Tinder, "Did you meet him here in the city? It doesn't
make much sense that he would come to such a populated area."

Tinder watches him walk and shakes her head, "No, I didn't meet
him here. I met him in Ponyville and let him stay in my
apartment for the night. We took a train to here to meet one of
his contacts." She leans back in her chair and quickly checks to
make sure that her bag is closed securely, so none of her stolen
goods will fall out.

Ebony suddenly stops his pacing, "His contacts? Could he
mean..." The captain goes to his desk and pulls out a red
marker. "Knowing him there's only one contact he trusts enough
for something like this." He reaches out and circles a single
point on the map. Taking a few steps back he looks at the map
then returns to his desk. "So we have a lead. There's little
time to waste and it is of the essence." The noctral looks over
to Tinder, "You're free to go. I gotta find him before things
escalate out of control."

Tinder stands up as she's told that she's free to go, she turns
around for a second before turning back to face him. "Can I come
help you? Because I really want to know that Foxtrot's okay, I'm
really worried about him. And I can help you, I have some skills
that could prove useful." She smiles at him and waits patiently
for a response.

Ebony rummages through his desk, pulling out his standard cuffs,
badge, and a crossbow (yes he keeps a fully loaded crossbow
under his desk, he's that prepared) before locking and loading.
"Alright, I'm short on backup and I don't have time to wait.
Stay close, don't do anything stupid, and keep an eye out. One
mistake and an information leak later and we're gonna have two
countries tearing each other apart. Any questions?"

Tinder shakes her head, "Nope, no questions. I understand, so I
promise I won't cause any trouble." She fixes her bag to make
sure it's covering what it needs to be covering and smiles at
him. "Oh, and just say if you need me to do anything or if you
need to know anything."
