Shake it off

Waves crashed upon the shore as they reverberated in the male's ears. A small sigh escaped the brute. It was possible that he had gotten side-tracked trying to find Maria, but it was good to get the lay of the lands that he had come across as well. His crimson eyes scanned the proximity of the shore: from the sand that was upon the ground, and the crashing waves that hit the stone rocks some distance away. The feeling of the warm grains against his paw pads soothed the male, but, he knew that it would be best to find the way toward his temporary home and not stay in one place very long. Maria was a young she-wolf, but he did not want to see her get hurt for she was more used to healing than fighting, that much was certain for the brute.

However, upon examination to the land before him, a figure happened to be upon the shore. His cranium tilted slightly to the side in question: who was this wolf, and it was obvious that they were alone so why would that be the case?

The ebony male did not wish to pry into business that was not his own, but, something told him to talk to this wolf and see if they needed any assistance. He was new to these lands, so help with directions was obviously slim to none.

"Excuse me, are you alright?" Shadow asked, his crimson orbs focusing on the strangers own as they held a bit of wonder and question, but, he tried to show kindness as best he could.
