You skip formalities and just ask her if she’s seen Bon-Bon. A little surprised, she looks down at you, thinks for a moment, and shakes her head. You then ask if she’s seen Lyra, although you expect a similar answer. She pauses for a moment to think again, then tilts her head as though she’s now thinking harder. She suddenly jumps, widening her stance as she lands, and nods to you. She’s seen Lyra!

You ask her when the last time she saw her was, which prompts her to begin pantomiming (which is a big word for a filly your age). She puts her back up to a wall and begins inching her way toward a corner, stopping to look around like she’s watching for somepony following her. As she does this her mail bag, thankfully held on with a belt, wiggles and sways, but nothing falls out. She eventually reaches the corner and slides around to the other side. Though you follow her from the street, it seems she’s done performing and backs off of the building, which was somepony’s house. A few other ponies are watching both of you at this point.

When she returns to your side, she points high and off in the distance, in the clear direction of Princess Twilight’s palace.
