The female, Spectra, certainly had a love for danger. She reminded him of his beta Finley and the way that she had seemed excited at scoping out the Caldera's mountain for potential dangers. "Of course you can," he replied to her question about calling his Fitz instead of FitzDutiful. He really had to change his name - he was fed up of being reminded about his father and mother's illicit affair that had produced him.
