come with me now

Honestly Hannibal could completely understand where the sprite was coming from. Not but moons ago he was in a grave awaiting his own demise. Failure after failure beat the beast down enough to where he didn't want to show his face. It wasn't until someone came forth with some tough love and instilled the much needed confidence back into him that he raised back up to his former glory. Perhaps he wasn't the same.. He would never be the same. But, he was alive and motivated. Maybe Dutch just needed some time and attention. Hannibal was willing to give her whatever she needed.

Hannibal moved his gaze over to the pups once again. Observing the tiny blobs of pure joy. He gazed over the fiery markings of Godbrand, the earthy tones of Gimli, and little Beryl with the same look of both Recluse and himself. He couldn't help but to feel pride before looking back towards Dutch. "There is discussion about splitting Ashen into two allied packs. We are beginning to get over populated as well as lacking resources that are native to these lands." A pause. "We will be hosting a meeting soon to discuss our options but Deathbelle and I both agree that another pack may be in our best interest. One of which I will lead. If this happens you and our pups will have their own home to thrive and grow within. You can be a crafter and perhaps even work your way up to a higher rank. Something that may have been impossible in such a crammed pack." The prospects were looking up and hopefully the gal could see it.
