Without any hesitation, Ty followed Geneva's orders and tore off towards the lake. However, he overheard the criminal's name before he left. He should have guessed it was Lucifer, the wolf meant trouble the minute he stepped onto Phoenix Valley territory. However, he never thought the dark wolf would actually go so far to do such a thing to her, but Lucifer was much more disturbed than he previously assumed.

Ty was quick to get to the lake, getting a spare bucket from a shack to grab water from the water. However, the lake was almost entirely frozen over, at least half a foot thick in ice. But Ty was resourceful, digging around in the snow to find a large rock that he could use. Finding a stone about the size of a human head, he pounded hard on the ice, each strike chipping away at the icy shield until it eventually gave way to the liquid water. After grabbing a bucketful of the chilling water, Ty darted back to the villa, dropping the water off with Geneva so he could have hands free for wood. when he stopped by, he could see Falgar and Geneva were taking good care of Jace.

But that didn't stop Ty from feeling he had failed twice. Even as he searched the broken houses for wood he could still feel his overwhelming sense of failure. This was the second woman who he let get raped in Phoenix Valley, the second one he could not stop. Even though he barely knew Jace he knew she did not deserve the fate that she received at Lucifer's hands.

As Ty returned with the wood, he said nothing to interfere with Geneva's and Falger's care taking, and quietly set up the wood to make a fire. This was not his affair, nor was it his business to bring any attention to himself, hence his silence as he lit the fire. However, it did not leave his mind that Lucifer was probably still out there, most likely in the Valley.
