Mulherin had returned to report in, setting Redd more at ease with a subsequent departure. She disliked the mistrust that had seemed unshakeable, now reduced to patience. He had not found what he sought, and tasting the scents, Redd found none familiar. She would have kept her distance either way.
She would linger in this place a while, both to hunt and to learn what she could from a distance. It was rare that strangers settled here.
