Having let his guard down for a few moments, Xephyris was caught off guard by the approach of a stranger. His ears tilted backward as he heard the voice speak suddenly; his body froze and he caught his breath, preventing himself from jumping or exclaiming from startle. However, the hackles along his entire spine rose, an indication that he'd been surprised and was slightly unnerved. Normally he did not allow himself to be caught unaware of his surroundings. He rose to his paws and turned to face the stranger. He looked the massive brute up and down, examining his features. He was a formidable wolf, and Xephyris narrowed his silver eyes as he wondered what the man wanted.
At least the towering wolf did not appear hostile. He'd stopped an appropriate distance from Xeph, leaving his personal space untouched. He perked his ears, nodding his head once in response to the man's simple query. "I suppose," he answered simply, a man of few words. His tone was a deep, rumbling monotone, somewhat guarded, but not unwilling to answer. He didn't have anywhere to be, no duties to fulfill. He had no reason to deny the stranger. So, he waited quietly to hear this man's request, wondering what on earth a stranger would possibly want to ask him about.
