Redhawk Caldera speaking of

Although Fox didn't refer to Lagan or Lucy by name, Elwood had no suspicions that she didn't know what his children were called. She mentioned the other losses they had experienced this year -- Peter and Ferret -- and Elwood cast his eyes down for a moment. It had been a hard couple of months for the children of Redhawk Caldera, but he could only hope that Lucy's story wouldn't end as tragically as Peter's or Ferret's.

At about that time, Liffey arrived with a mouth full of leaves; the sight was enough to bring the smile back to Elwood's face. "Hey, Liffey," he said, then shifted back to answer Fox's questions. "Finley hasn't checked in at all. You know how she is. She probably won't step foot back here until she has some information about Lucy," he replied with a shrug of his shoulders. "I hope we'll hear from her soon." With that topic concluded -- at least for now -- he turned his attention to Liffey.

Lagan had approached his sister and was eyeing her leaves with interest, perhaps deciding whether or not to try to steal them from her. "Whatcha got?" Elwood asked, golden eyes fixed on his remaining daughter.
