[The lake has a terrible draw for Waver. Sure, he spent one day nearly getting pulled under water there, but it represents something more important: a part of the world that manifested without the Witch's control. It's a mystery, one he is yet to solve.
So he's there more times than not. Walking like that's going to finally give him all the information to solve the mystery. It's bullshit, of course, but it helps.
Besides. There's always something new, like now. As he heads back. Because there's a bear, hauling branches around.
Waver squints, certain he's seeing things.]
Wait, what the hell?
[Because that's a polite way to react when you're within ten feet of a bear.]
Bonfire
