The third time Wilder met the strange girl, Richard hadn't been there when it happened. It was a year after they met her the second time. He had chased after her at that time but didn't see even her shadow. The only thing he had found was the dog, which had run for its life.
They had received information about a man who knew some details about the witches' hideout. Richard had led some people to find them, while Wilder had taken a different route with some other men.
When Richard met them again later that night, he noticed the tension in the air and the fact that one of the men was gone.
