Colvin becomes aware, like a driving lance in his head, like an obstruction he can’t ignore, that one of the Fae Folk is nearby. He’ll likely whip his head erratically to look at it, before setting off on his hunt.
The Wild Hunt recognizes its own kind. Many of the hunt are linked to the Fae and many are such beings themselves, and the spear…adapts to the obsession of its wielder. Colvin’s obsession is his hatred of the Fae. He will stalk to the ends of the world to end them, if need be. The spear is more than happy to feed his hunger, while turning him into a piecemeal facsimile of the beings he hates most.
