It seemed that Surreal got right down to business, there was no beating around the bush with her. He liked that, he himself was not much for small talk. She mentioned Threar's fall, and his lips twitched up into a snarl. No, she didn't have to tell him. He was well aware that his family's pack had been over turned, and his entire mood shifted along with it. "Of course I am aware." He snapped, eyes narrowing slightly. It was not at her that his anger was directed, but somewhere all together. He allowed her to go on though, listening as she spoke about doing something about them on her land. He never saw why wolves were so attached to unclaimed lands here, but he did also kind of understand. He didn't want to see another pack settle on where his family had once been, and he knew that Valentine felt somewhat the same. It was a different kind of attachment, like to that of the land that one was born in. "Hmm, interesting that you mention that. I was not going to sit idly by while that bastard ruled, only because he took down my family. Threar did nothing to attract that kind of attention." They were such a peaceful pack, that is what bothered him most. It seemed to him that Sin only challenged his aunt because he thought that they would be easy pickings. "My aunt and uncle were cast out of their leadership positions and the rest of my family left without a home. Abaven already has far too many members to house them all. I intended to siege Sin's pack, although I am not sure if it is set in stone quite yet. My mate is carrying my pups, and I am not sure I want to risk being homeless until they are at least old enough to leave the den. But time might not be on my side." He eyed the woman thoughtfully, his brow raising. "If you did aid my pack, what are you looking for in return?"
"Speech"
