"A merchant came here last night, to Cocktail's bar. Said he knows a place that could very well be a source of clean freshwater. Not that I believed him, of course, but the place he pointed on the map is also marked on one of our old maps as a place with... well, a hole. Big hole in the ground, the technique that was once used for tunnelling through bedrock to get to various resources. This makes me believe that even if we won't find a water spring, there might be some other resources with value. So, after buying him a few drinks, he was more than happy to tell me about the place now, what dangers to look for and such. Not that we didn't knew about the place, but we have many of them on the old maps, and we learned very soon that the old maps are simply... unreliable. However with his confirmation, I'd like to go and take a look there."
"Anyway, I went on a tangent. Fact is, simple and straight, I need few ponies to come with me on this, reliable ones, so I decided to ask you. In any case, we leave tomorrow, so if you wish to ask, ask now, before I manage to get myself drunk."
Arc looked away from the glass, at the ponies and zebra in front of him.
