Haunted Wood derivative

Her name suited her dark pelage, he remarked, and absently he wondered about this Caldera that she mentioned.  Perhaps if she stuck around long enough, he would bring it up.  He watches as she makes herself comfortable and shifts his weight evenly

She introduces herself briefly, and he absently wonders about this Caldera that Raven speaks of.  Perhaps, he muses, if they converse long enough he might make mention of it.  Varick watches as she makes herself comfortable but remains standing, weight distributed evenly between each of his long legs.
