Beige one. You will refer to my apprentice as per her title.
[His tufted ears flick.]
What relevance does this 'Steel' have to you? Why do they not stand before me? Why you?

[Hind's features remain neutral]
No. Not really. Steel just told to deliver a package to this area of the woods, said something about not DROPPING it but that's it.
[He side eyes Limeade]
If you don't want it, you can give it to that lime one over there, she seems eager...

[Dim's look sours.]
I am Halhide. I have no family. Who are you to bring this mockery before me?
[With each word, Hind gets a clear look at Dim's fangs.]
I recognize the crest contained therein. Do you, beige one?

[Dim gives Limeade a sideways glance.]
It is a purity stone. To carry it is to declare oneself of worthy heart. This one has been stripped. That is an insult to the next to bear it.
[Ignoring Hind, Dim takes the stone in hoof, then offers it to Limeade.]
It is better served as an alchemical reagent.

I don't know what you mean by that
[Hind slides the parcel back between his hooves, lifting the cover]
[The contents within the box include an irregularly shaped metallic rock and a small note]
"A gift from the family"
[Hind lifts his head and looks at Dim]
"I guess it's for you"

[Dim nods along to Limeade's outburst.]
The package appears inert, apprentice. But your reasoning is sound.
[He glares at the beige one.]
You can open the box, or I can open you.

[The box clatters onto the ground]
[Hind stares at Limeade incredulously with his hooves frozen mid unpackaging, empty]
[Pause]
If it WAS a bomb... wouldn't slapping it out of my hooves be the WORST course of action????

What!?
[Taken aback by the accusation, Hind chooses to focus on the parcel in front of him]
It's NOT a marriage proposal.
[He pauses]
I mean, it could be...?
[the stallion starts idly unpacking the box]
I wasn't even told what was in it, typical...

keep your petty feelings away from my guard.ᐟ

[Hind tilts his head slightly]
Eh?
[He lowers his head, laying the package on the floor]
Isn't it that I'm NOT supposed to open the packages I'm delivering?
[Hind glances elsewhere]
I don't normally do deliveries, so...

[Hind turns to a side, rummaging through his saddlebag]
[A moment passes]
Heah!
[Clenched between his teeth is a wide rectangular box with a label haphazardly stamped on]
["A Proposal"]

[Dim's ears sharply turn. His eyes scan the earth pony.]
Take note, apprentice. This is no local. Nor courier. The beige one bears the mark of a guild.
[He pauses.]
Adequate.

Present your parcel, courier.
