Although Colt was clearly looking for Finley, the sound of his brother-in-law's voice drew Elwood's attention. He was nearby, enlarging a rather small cache tucked under the roots of a tree -- because even though he was retired, he still had a hard time just doing nothing -- and he paused in his digging. Colt continued to speak to his sister, although there wasn't any response from her just yet; likely she was close by, though.

"You're sure you want to ask her for advice?" he said teasingly as he stepped through the dappled sunlight to approach Colt. He gave a good-natured shrug to match his smile, then gestured vaguely over his shoulder with his snout. "I'm sure she's around here somewhere," he added.
