Rein began scratching the steel surface of the army tank and immediately, Elias grimaced and flattened his ears to try and dull the sound. He had the sensitive ears of a hunter, and that sound was by far worse than most he had ever heard. He shook his head once it was done, unintentionally mirroring Rein exactly while they both tried to rid themselves of the feeling the sound left behind.
He observed Rein's red and blue gaze when he looked at him, a breath escaping his teeth some as he thought of the demons that might inhabit the boy. He lifted his head with a smirk when Rein questioned him, "I respect them. I want to survive, and I do not waste time with foolishness. I do not think these things were ever living at all, so how could they be dead? They smell of underground metals, and yet here they are.. on the surface, lying in wait.. what brought them here?" He flicked an ear, curiously watching his son.
"There are too many questions revolving around them that I do not know the answer to, and until more of the mystery is solved- I will be avoiding them. They are here for a reason, and I will not disturb them." He turned to look toward the direction he was heading.. thinking.
"You're one of Odett-- er, Aures' children, if I am not mistaken." He nearly forgot she had changed her name.
"I am Elias Praetor, your father. I was hoping I would run into you again when you were older, and now here you are. I wanted to know you back then, and I still want to know you now. I will be securing a pack within the Eastern Mountains, you should come and find me." It appeared Elias had his heart set on getting out of these lands and continuing with his work, but it was clear by the way he looked at Reinhardt that it was hard for him to just simply walk away.
Disclaimer: Elias suffers from schizophrenia and occasionally has violent outbursts.
