Redsand Canyon backstreet's back alright

The call was familiar and unique. The scutarius knew instantly that it was the mutant wolf. She had deserted Mereo, and he wasn't sure why she would return now. Maybe she had come to grovel at the imperator's paws and ask to be given a second chance. Kallik hoped Germanicus would turn her down. He barely trusted her before and now he would never trust the flaky woman.

When he arrived, he stood in front of her, his gaze icy. Why are you here? he asked sternly. She was lucky he didn't rip the other side of her face off for her betrayal.
