Serpent Lake I don’t recognize who’s in my bed

She could sense his excitement at talking about this war.
Like her, he was also the bloodthirsty sort, and he perhaps wanted some revenge for the unjust attack.

Vanity just wanted to beat someone's ass.

She shook her head too, "Me neither." There were no tracks, no scents.
Evidence in water isn't evidence, unless you were close enough behind.
"They probably went up the water to lose the scent, but I bet they're still going to Ursus."
Or at least a rendezvous where they would then go to Ursus.
Where else would they take the kid?

Before her mind could run with the possibilities, she nodded.
"Ok, be safe," she smirked, moving to bump shoulders with him.
"If you're not back soon, I'll look for you," she grinned, winking. Maybe he'd stay out for extra long time just so she'd have to haul ass looking for him.
It seemed like something Santi would do for fun.
