Thinking about earning a few bits, you ask Aqua Skies and Marine Wave if they know where you can find some work around here.
 
Marine Wave: “Hmm, I’m afraid not. I mean, it isn’t uncommon for sailors to hire extra hooves every now and then, but those kinds of jobs aren’t done overnight.”
 
Aqua Skies: “If you’re just looking to lend a hoof to whoever needs it, then you’ll want to talk to Tattle Tail; if there’s anypony in Amblerta who keeps track of those things, it’s her.”
 
Marine Wave: “Oh, that’s true! That filly is always in the know. You should be able to find her down the next road, out and about by the beach area.”
 
You thank the mares for the information, and make a note to visit Tattle Tail after lunch.
 
Moonflower: “How ‘bout’cha, Basket? Are you comin’ with us all the way back to Everfree?”
 
Apple Basket: “Uh, well, it would be a shame not to see this adventure through to the end, right? But I wouldn’t want to make my family worry ‘bout me for too long, either. It’s already been a while.”
 
Moonflower: “Ooh! Why don’t’cha spend the night at your house, and we’ll come get’cha tomorrow? We can totally make the detour, right, Blazer?”
 
You agree to stop by Greenhoof Grove tomorrow. And with that settled, you prepare to carry on with your plans for the day.
 
Marine Wave: “It’s been a pleasure! And if you two need somewhere to stay, you know which door to knock on.”
 
Aqua Skies: “Before midnight, if you can.”
 
Apple Basket: “And I reckon I should get goin’ if I want to make it to dinner tonight. I’ll see you gals tomorrow!”
 
After some hugs and nuzzles, you bid farewell to Apple Basket, Aqua Skies, and Marine Wave, and go your separate ways…
 
A fresh breeze gently brushes through your mane, and rustles the leaves of bushes and trees along the road. You and Moonflower wander the southern city streets, looking around every corner for a certain filly.
 
Before long, you come across one such filly enjoying a frozen treat — but most importantly, matching the description you were given; a beige coat with short brown hair, and sporting a red and yellow cap. You approach her, and ask if she happens to be Tattle Tail.
 
Tattle Tail: “Who’s asking?”
 
You put on your best smile, and introduce yourselves to the youngster. She gives you the once-over, then returns a smug grin.
 
Tattle Tail: “I thought you looked familiar. That doesn’t strike me as Tonsoria’s work, though. Anyway, you were looking for me?”
 
You nod, and tell her that you were advised to see her about earning some bits. She takes a moment to think it over.
 
Tattle Tail: “I get it. So you’re here to help, huh? Sure, I’ve got a few offers that might interest you.”
 
You let her know that you are listening.
 
Tattle Tail: “So, in the market’s toy department, I heard that Ruby and Sapphire Heart are looking for ponies to test out some new experimental flavour-enhancing product. They’re paying ten bits a pair, which isn’t all that much, and it’s a one-time deal only, but it’s easy money.
 
If easy’s not your style, though, there’s also Azure Spark who’s getting low on blue dye. She’s paying up to fifty bits per hoofful of pigment, but how much you’ll actually find out there might as well be a roll of the dice. If you want to know more, you can always ask her.
 
Or, you could do a job for me. I’ve been hearing about some old ruins recently. They say it’s been taken over by zombies, of all things. Sounds dangerous, so I’m not telling you to go there, but I’ve got a hundred bits waiting for whoever can figure out what’s behind these rumours for me.”
