Odysseus' characteristic frown deepened as Shaye asked his opinion of the situation. To put it simply...it was complicated. Far too complicated for him to feel comfortable presenting his thoughts to his alpha on such short notice and with so little information. But that's exactly what he was going to do.

He felt Olafur's fingers tighten on his scruff and knew the macaque was equally displeased with the situation.

The titan sighed before rumbling back in a low voice meant for Shaye's ears only. "We are outsiders with very little information to work with and a scene so chaotic I still don't quite understand all that was going on." Odysseus paused to consider all that he had learned about Leera and Tyranis - which was admittedly very little. "These are what we know to be facts: Leera came to the battlefield in support of her packmates and it was only once she was accosted by Acere that she changed sides. We can only speculate as to her motives. Was she a captive and cowed into supporting Evorare today or did she come of her own freewill? Is she a vixen with ulterior motives? None of this we know."

"We know she claims that Tyranis is a danger to her and possibly to their children. We know that her fear seemed genuine." He paused again and then slowly parted with the words, "And we know Tyranis came to the battlefield covered head to toe in ichor and proclaimed himself to be a lightning demon knowing full well that he would be seen and judged by outsiders."

Alright, time for his opinion. "This is my opinion: Tyranis' behavior didn't strike me as the behavior of a sane man and for that reason I'm inclined to believe Leera." Was this a perfect assessment? No, not even close, but he had been presented with fragments of information and expected to intuit it what was best for an entire family. "We also have the dependency of the pups to consider. Will Tyranis suckle them at his belly if that is what they still require?"

Odysseus shook his head in exasperation and then glanced back in the direction of the crowd. Of course he couldn't see them anymore, but he knew they were there. "It is my opinion that Leera keep sole custody of the pups until we've had time to make more sense of this problem." They needed to speak to Leera, to see what her plans for the future were. If she was just using them as a launch pad to put distance between herself and Tyranis for no other reason than that she was done with him then they would be incurring the wrath of another pack for nothing. "By siding with Leera we will no doubt be putting ourselves at odds with Tyranis and his pack. But...it's my opinion that if Abaven is the pack I think it is we are morally obligated to accept that risk."

  "Odysseus" and "Olafur"  


Odysseus has a male rhesus macaque companion named Olafur. Unless he's mentioned IC it's safe to assume he's not with Odysseus.
