She barely pays the passing landscape any mind. Lovely as it is, she’s seen it all before. Her inclination for spying is hardly something she bandies about, but any who know her well know she sees far more than she should. No doubt her grandson already has an inkling, though she doubts he yet understands the true scope of her knowledge.

He seems intrigued by the thought of an aunt, and if Longclaw had never mentioned Rapture to him, she could understand why. Who wouldn’t wish to know about a heretofore unknown twin to one’s father? Perhaps they would even grow to know themselves as family. Although, given her daughter’s flightiness, she does have to wonder if he’ll actually find her. Even she has a hard time keeping up with Rapture.

With a rather impish nod of her head, she accepts his standing invitation. “You can be certain I will,” she replies with a dry humor, before continuing in a more serious tone. “And know that I will be here if you need me.”
Her gaze lingers for a long moment on the stripped stallion before she offers as soft farewell. “Until next time, Wolfbane.” With that, she turns north.
