Cross was from the North. Basilisk knew this much -- he had no idea precisely where they resided, or if they simply wandered as they pleased. Since his mother had suddenly reappeared, as though she hadn't abandoned him for nearly a season, he had been more distraught than ever. How dare she sudden show her face, to stake her claim on Tortuga and likely assume that he would willingly join her in her endeavors? No -- she had failed him, as had Kaios. He was disappointed, and though deep in his heart he felt an undying loyalty to her, he was not at all impressed. Nor was he going to bend to her every whim, as though she was entitled to such a thing. He knew that a plot for revenge was forming, and he wanted no part in it.. not yet, at least. He wondered how Cross might react to such knowledge, and this was partially why he found himself traversing so far north, a bit further than where he might normally find himself.

It was early morning. A beautiful sight indeed, if he was phased by such things; with brilliant pink and orange light spreading over the horizon and illuminating the earth. He hardly paid attention to such things, and instead his mind swayed as he wandered further away from his familiar territory, straying into the unknown once again.

Soon, he found himself greeted by the sight of ocean and sand. Not an entirely unpleasant thing, but also not one of his favorite places in the world. The sight of a small child crept into his vision, and he found his curiosity piqued. His ears flicked idly atop his large skull, pace slowing slightly as he continued closer. His purple gaze followed her, watching as she ran and played in the sand. How innocent. Still, as he crept closer, he recognized that this was foreign to him. He had never played like this, even as a young boy. How could so much joy be found in nothing? Brows furrowed as he approached, wondering if she would notice his approach -- or even care. He would be surprised if she wasn't startled, for he was growing to be even taller than most adult wolves he'd met, and even more bulky. "What are you conquering?" His voice boomed out, loud even over the gentle crashing of the waves against the shoreline, eyes narrowing as he watched her.
