"A Shifter." Winter repeated his friend's words as he zipped his bag up, it was still half empty, but then there were his mothers supplies to take into consideration. He turned to look at Whit as he stated that he should've told him a few things like this as soon as he figured him out. Winter couldn't help but nod in agreement, seeing as all the facts seemed to lead back to him. He'd heard of shifters before but he'd never really looked at his own abilities and put two and two together on his own, though he guessed it seemed to make sense.

"I'm not the same as a shifter either though, am I?" He more told Whit than asked him. He was pretty sure Whit probably knew more on shifters than himself, but he knew enough to make his point. "I can't change fully like they can." With a heavy sigh, they were pulled onto the topic of Fior. He took the half empty bag from his bed and slung it over his shoulder, moving towards the doorway.

"I hadn't even thought of a trap. I've been thinking of how I'd track her." He stated, frowning a little at Whit. If it wasn't for his friend he probably would've gone running off blindly into the wild following after Fior. "You know how I like to go charging ahead without much thought."

He glanced over at Kaia, checking that she was still asleep. This conversation didn't need to go any further than himself and Whit.
"If that guy was a shifter, then those attackers were shifters and mages. I don't understand what we're getting ourselves into yet, but it's definitely going to be something much bigger than a simple search and rescue mission. Hunter is the only source of information we have, we need him at the moment until we've got enough of a grasp of what's going on to go it alone. Trust him or not, we're sticking with him for now." He told Whit, knowing how much it took for Whit to trust somebody.

With that, he slipped past Whit and began plodding back downstairs, planning on receiving the supplies from his mother before saying his goodbyes.
