Soro was very capable, so anyone who could defeat him would need to be quite dangerous. Tell me, if you will, the killer was here not long ago, his scent is all over the area, does he bear any pack scent that you recognize?"

Even though he had seen his mentor defeated at the hands of a non-expert, he still held unshakable confidence in this fact.
"I may not be able to do anything about it, but it would be comforting to be certain if it is who I think it is..." or to know where to find who I know it is, he finished in his thoughts. Lies, lies, and more lies. He had told them long before coming to this place, but it was here that he began regretting the absence of truth that seemed to pervade all his words.
