Though things between he and Sparrow had been rather - uh, strained as of late (and that was putting it lightly - he never expected her call, summoning the pack to meet, would sound quite so.. forlorn? It instantly made him frown, looking forward to this meeting even less than usual. He had no real interest in who was taking over Abaven, but he had a duty to his pack - and his family - and though he wasn't the boldest wolf, he was honorable in his own right. Protecting them meant everything, and if all the Abraxas wanted was to rule, if it meant he and his children had a home, well.. he'd let them play their games. While others wanting an uprising, he merely wanted peace and quiet, the ability to live a simple life - and he hoped this Archon would allow it.
He was slower to respond to the meeting than he should've, and by the time he arrived with Corvus quietly padding behind him, he noticed that his mate and Rhea and Aiden were already there. The boy bounded over to his brother and sister, visibly uncomfortable but not without a childish grin. Though their children were growing older, nearly filling out their bodies by now, they still had that innocence that only a child could - the kind of innocent Lark couldn't even begin to pretend he possessed. He sighed as he settled down at Lillianna's side, leaning into her for comfort and emotional stability.
