Elias heard him approaching before he ever saw him; the sound of heavy paws disturbing detritus quickly gaining his attention. He forfeited his attention on the trail to twist his neck around and look behind him, his hackles beginning to prickle slightly in defense as he prepared for the utmost worst- it is what he was used to, after all.
What appeared was an enormous beast of equal size to his own, but those tusks that protruded from the other's lips painted a visage that Elias would never be able to forget. His eyes widened slightly in his moment of stupor, caught in awe as he admired the gift in genetics that the gods seemed to bless the creature before him with. As if to further this hallowed creature's appearance, Elias' eyes drifted over the red markings that adorned his silvery, shaggy fur. His hackles had been smoothing out through-out the entirety of his observation and slowly, Elias turned to face him and bow his head in respect as the other voiced his greeting.
The question brought a coy smile to Elias' lips as his skull canted slightly, wondering inwardly if this beast was offering to aid him or preparing to run him off. His ears flicked toward the word that concluded that question, it was not one he knew but the free usage of the other's native tongue inspired him to answer with his own in pride. "Veto, I am." A grin started in his cheeks, pulling his lips across his smile as he looked on to the man before him in similar appreciation.
Whispers meant for only himself to hear swirled in his mind, speaking fondly of the strength within the ghostly creature in front of him; Elias was forced to listen to them, his ears flicking gently in different directions as he continued to stare, admiring Aki. There was a warmth radiating beneath his skin as he felt in the presence of something almost holy. "I'm not sure what it is that I'm tracking, to be honest. Though, you are welcome to accompany me, providing it interests you, if in return I may ask you a question?" He'd never been one for trading before, but perhaps Dagmaer had started something? He had no use for material ownerships, but a constant thirst for understanding- in his mind, the trade was fair without doubt.
