hide and seek

Hannibal was appreciative of Acere giving the duo some space as they reunited. The albino stared down at his smaller daughter with wide eyes. He didn't to even risk blinking for the sight of his precious daughter was something he had awaited for many moons. As the girl spoke a low rumble came forth from his throat. If Recluse was correct then Mordi and Neph were gone. He doubted she'd stick around in Boreas and with little trace of her being around it was evident she was either in Auster or gone. After a moment Hannibal took in a gentle breath and nudged his daughter's scruff with his nose. "Banshee lives with me in a pack called Ashen.." He offered a very soft smile before his attention was formally moved towards Acere.

As Acere spoke the male listened with slight disappointment. It was a long shot to expect Circe to have been seen up north. Though, that was why he had come in the first place. If she didn't want to be found what better place to hide then a snowy wasteland. Nevertheless, when Acere prompted Hannibal for more information the Alpha easily obliged. "Circe Abraxas. She is a tall female with a slate and white pelt. She has white dappled markings bon her back and white beneath her teal eyes." Circe was beautiful and it was easy for Hannibal to remember her simple yet elegant markings. As well as those beaming eyes. He hoped their offspring would have her features primarily. "Thank you for your help, Acere. It is highly appreciated."

Yet, there was still another matter to discuss. Of course Hannibal would want to take Recluse home with him. But, in order to maintain good faith with Acere they would need to discuss it first. With a little glance down to the albino pup he raised a brow. "I'd like to bring my daughter home with me." Hannibal looked down to Recluse for a long moment, "Only if she wants to come, of course." He was in no position to demand anything of his daughter. But, his heart swelled with hope.
