Neverwinter Forest eyes on fire

Fortunately, though October looked very surprised, and perhaps a bit doubtful, she chose to believe him and he felt relieved. Too strange to be true, or too surprising to be a lie- either way, his story could have been perceived easily as either a lie or the truth, he was sure someday he'd run into someone who didn't believe him at all. October seemed to be able to see things from Fox's point of view, and Shrike nodded. "Best way to put it." He said, when she agreed that Fox was a mess of emotions and instincts. She sympathized, and he bobbed his head appreciatively, glad she'd chosen to trust him. He'd prove his worth, he was sure, and the truth of his story would become even more obvious, he told himself, when the pack saw him as a worthy man who made sound, rational decisions. 

She spoke about Lucy, and he felt a bit of warmth creep into his heart. She spoke with both fondness and loss, and he nodded. He'd known, by now, that Rannoch was Allure's young brother, which made the search all the more important. "Do you think she got spooked?" He asked. "I heard Trick came here. She wouldn't know him...And might remind her of her kidnapper." He said. Trick had dark fur, after all, and though he didn't have red eyes, he would still be a stranger, and she might have been suspicious of an unknown man who'd come looking for her even if he said he was from the Caldera.
