Moonspear the secret face within the tapestry

Dirge was right to think it was all connected. She had found both men that night, truth be told, and dominated the duo justly. She had forgotten about Vaati in the moment, so focused was she on the justice she had served to the true murderer. 

I found the very wolf that had fled that day. I did what was right, it was clear that Dirge still saw her in the same light. And due to this, Hydra saw him in the same light as well. She drew nearer to him, comfortable. It was benevolent, she agreed with a little sigh, though only you and my parents would see it that way, surely. I ought to have killed him. She repeated her true desire, which she had already stated. He was no stranger to her logic. 

After a beat, she informed him, I found that other wolf, as well. He bears the same markings now as the ones he had given my friend. All my scores have been settled, she said with a wan grin. As settled as they could be (for now) anyway. She still had the itching desire to find and kill Titmouse, and yet... she was coming to accept the decision she had made for others. She could be selfless, sometimes.
