Ankyra Sound Dancing on the Edge

This happens right after he speaks with Caiaphas.

Spyridon knew what had to be done, and after agreeing to meet Caiaphas on the morrow, he went to seek out his target. It did not take him long, for the male's scent still seemed foreign and easy to pick out of the plethora of female scents. Initially, he had intended only to seek out his target from afar, but when he spotted the drudge speaking with an outsider, he knew that he could not stand by and watch their secrets spilled.

He made haste toward the two, his hackles raised and teeth bared as he inserted himself between Nishu and the stranger. Spyro glared at the drudge, every muscle ready to pounce if the man did not back away. This was not the way that strangers were to be dealt with, and Nishu was not qualified for such a thing anyway. If he did not back down, things would get violent. Spyro gave the girl no acknowledgement, but if she knew what was good for her, she would high-tail it out of her sooner rather than later.
