Because if his time in the Legion Shepherd has a major phobia and dogs, Coyotes in particular. He was a Fumentarii for most of his adult life, and despite the amnesia his body kept score. His phobia of Coyotes and his visceral emotional reaction to Vulpes at Nipton was what inspired him to look into his own past instead of just moving on and leaving it behind

#Nipton was a formative experience for him #its someone the can site as the start of his hatred and vendetta against the legion #he quotes Vulpes own words back to him as hes leaving the fort after killing Caesar #“This is a wicked place debased and corrupt” and #“now go and teach what you learned here. There will be more lessons in the days ahead”#in particular #Shepherd leaves Vulpes alive becuase he feels for a man like Vulpes having failed the legion and Caesar is the worst punishment imaginable #he went to the fort after Honest Hearts so was in his violent retrebution era thanks to Joshua’s influence #its a period of his life he comes to deeply regret BUT he eventually takes it as a lession that revenge will only leave you hollow #oc: Shepherd #character yapping
