Description:

Emerald thanks the guard and makes his way over to the large building.

As he walks the amount of people increases, as does the bleakness of the scene. Emerald notices that those who are walking around are the ones in prime age and condition. Most seem to be looking for food or work, while others speak and give condolences to others. Emerald sees a group walking purposefully with some of the Ponycare workers carrying shovels.

Some people have tents, but others have put together shacks made of old wood planks and bits of metal… Whatever else they could get their hands on. The ones who are sitting near the tents are those too old, young, or infirm to be of much use. Most of them are laying down resting or otherwise making themselves useful. A few are weaving the rough orange grass nearby into baskets, or attempting to fix up their shacks.

The trio approach the wooden building near the center of the camp and notices he was wrong about the building. Initially he thought it was a quickly put together, but it appears to actually be a derelict building that is slowly being repaired. Even as he watches he sees some camp workers holding tools and stacking wood, speaking with the Ponycare and guards, clearly discussing what to repair next.

The group makes their way inside and sees that it's made up of cots pushed up against each other, full of injured people from door to walls with a rather large space in the middle that doctors and Ponycare agents are hustling up and down. It's quieter than Emerald would have imagined. Just the whisper of the workers and the occasional scream or groan punctuate the air.

Joyride pulls aside a worker and asks if he knows who Hope is, and when he nods Joyride asks for her whereabouts. The worker says he's up on the second floor with with Doctor Bronzewing.

The three make their way upstairs, and Emerald sees her. He suddenly gets a bit nervous.
