Normally they might hesitate at trying to hunt alongside someone they barely knew. But since assuming their new title, Masquerade felt deeply energized and would do just about anything for the sake of the hunt. Besides, they couldn’t help thinking of Riley again and wondering if they might incidentally recruit Phox. He seemed content with his lot and they weren’t sure he’d be accepted as readily as the Redpath, but it was a curious thing to ponder.
