Return of Inferno

Shortly after the arrival of One Who Flies and Red Raven, a raging fire broke out across the Incursion zones. Locals accused the scouts of starting it. But among Hunters, rumor has it that the new Inferno may have a darker origin, with some claiming a connection to the new Firebreather monster that wanders the bayou and the gulch. They say the man who became the first Firebreather may have had ties to the Turncoat Gang, but that's just hearsay...right?
