It surprised Charon that his uncle Mordecai had left Blacktail Deer Plateau a while ago. In Charon's mind he'd been a part of it since forever, and Charon wondered what had made his uncle leave it. This was no disclosed though, and while Charon was curious about the reasons he was also very self-centered and therefore elaborating about the fight with Dante was higher on the yearling's priority list.

"We fought because Dante is a self-righteous asshole," Charon said, his face wrought into a sneer. "He attacked me and I didn't want to back down. I just wanted to teach him a lesson." While that didn't go over all that well, at least he had also taken some of Dante's face - and hopefully dignity - so it wasn't a completely wasted effort. It was just a shame that he'd got off with quite a few wounds himself.

Charon was curious where Mordecai lived now, but he didn't ask just yet, figuring that maybe his uncle would bring it up himself.
