All You who are Weary and Heavy Laden

Octavian had already been in the lands and had come to the meeting rather early yet had sat and watched while listening patiently. His black ears listened to the words of his king as news of every kind was mentioned. Through everything his face showed no emotion as he sat there...listening. Only a small smile appeared on his face as Gerhardt mentioned his promotion as he did his sister's.

A grateful nod was given as he then heard Loccian's congratulations.

"I am proud of you sister as you are of me." he said in return to her.

This was good news but the news before that would make the smile fade. It was sad to see two split apart but Octavian knew what would be in order. He would probably have another chat with his King as he had picked him up a while back as well. Octavian owed it to Gerhardt but at the same time wanted to help. With one death of his love in the past he knew what loss felt like even though Adette was still alive.

No words were spoken or fell from his lips; he still sat there calm and intent on his haunches.

So much news was now received and Octavian had acquired quite a bit of it. As the meeting ended he stood up. With a swift nod to his king and a friendly nuzzle to his sister he was off on his way with a mind full of knowledge. Octavian sought to roam the forests for a bit more before e would have a chat, brute to brute, a friendly conversation with each other.
