I really meant it when I said I wanted to view the plateau and caldera as sister packs." With that said, he wouldn't press the point further. If she wasn't comfortable, that was fine.

"Everyone seems to be taking the blame. It's no one's fault," Peregrine said. "How's Dante handling leadership?" he wondered, genuinely interested in the answer.
