Redtail Rise We all see the door, hoping it'll open something in a major way.

Redpath.  It was similar to Redtail.  Redd noted this, but she did not comment on it, choosing instead to study him for a long moment.  He appeared strong, but she knew little of him aside from his closeness to Masquerade.  Their scents mingled often in passing.  Perhaps they had brought him here.

Redd sat, relaxing back onto her haunches.  She would not press her rank on those unfamiliar unless necessary; it was her own job to earn their trust.

Redd.  It felt unfamiliar on her tongue, she spoke it so infrequently.  Not her true name, but the one she wore that suited.  Avicus had rarely called her anything else.

You joined with Masque?  She asked this completely unaware of the potential double meaning.
