Redhawk Caldera I'll interrogate the cat.

Right off the bat, Elwood mentioned something that piqued her interest in spite of herself. Sebastian had lived here previously? Towhee didn't know whether to place this fact in the "pros" or "cons" column, really, but she filed it away as an important piece of information nonetheless. In her momentary processing state, she missed a couple of words—the mention of Sebastian's interest in obtaining the medic trade—but when her orange eyes refocused on her uncle's lips, they widened a bit to hear that Sebastian had been involved with Finley's sister. Before Towhee could wonder where said sister was now, her godfather revealed that she had passed away. Sebastian had evidently helped with her final arrangements before leaving the pack on good terms.

Towhee took a few moments to turn this information over in her head. She felt a little pity about her unknown aunt and Sebastian's loss but otherwise she wasn't particularly moved. Why had he left? And why had he come back with an entire pack with him? Why didn't they just find their own territory? Why did they need to invade the caldera like this?
