Nobody's hero

Xephyris nodded in understanding when she said Bass was her uncle. He supposed that meant that the man had passed away by now. It unnerved him slightly, knowing he wasn't too far off in age. However, he'd always done what he could to keep himself in top shape, and he hoped that his efforts would give him more time to tread the earth. The thoughts were washed away as Shaye continued speaking, and Xephyris listened to determine whether he'd heard of any of the wolves who had run Abaven before her. He had never heard any of those names before. But, it was good to at least know their names, to know how the history of the pack had unfolded since he'd been gone. He wondered what else in the lands of Boreas had changed. Which packs had fallen, and which ones remained? He wondered how many had risen from the ashes, only to be snuffed out before they'd made their mark on the continent. Most curious on his mind, was which pack held the most power now? Perhaps he would discover these things the longer they spoke, or their exploration of the lands could lead to answers.

The older brute was pleased when Shaye said she'd be happy to take him up on his offer. It would be an interesting way to pass the time, and it would certainly fulfill his desire to create new memories to help him erase memories of a long ago past. "Excellent, he rumbled in delight, falling quiet once more as she described the plans she had in mind of what information she wanted to collect while she was here. He nodded, taking in her words. She seemed like an intelligent and capable woman, a good fit to be leading her pack. Obviously she had their best interests in mind by subjecting herself to such a long journey and facing dangers unknown. He was interested in getting to know her further, for it seemed there was much more about her to be uncovered.

"Well, let's not waste any time," he said, rising to his paws and stretching out his limbs, "I can show you around the cove. Perhaps it could make a good place to rest, as there are many hidden caves." He tossed his head in the direction of the high lava rock pillars, which hid countless small resting places. "Then we can search for traces of the pack you seek, and take note of anything interesting we come across along the way," he said, hoping to get started right away. Shaking out his gray-hued coat, he looked down the beach, then looked back to her. "Shall we?" he inquired, turning slightly and preparing to make his way across the sand and past the northern palm trees.
