Deus didn't understand, why couldn't they save his uncle? Aureus had already saved Deus, it was his turn to be rescued. Before he could argue his point he was once again in the jaws of another and Aureus' body faded further and further away from view. Only once he could no longer see his uncle did he look up at Eliphas, shuddering each time as rock upon rock pelted at his bloodied coat. The pup's lip trembled and he hung his head, watching the ground fly past as they neared Aerie territory and waiting for it to open up and swallow both of them whole.
Before he knew it he was dropped once more, though much more gently than Aureus had when his uncle returned him to the ground. He rolled atop Eliphas' paws and struggled to stand no matter how wobbly his feet felt. He pressed his white-tipped muzzle into the bloodied man's fur, nudging him firmly. "W-wake up, we hav'ta to save Uncle." His voice had not yet steadied, the shock still setting in and chattering the boy's teeth and shaking his bones. No matter how insistently he tried, still Eliphas would not wake. Eventually Deus' desperation drove him to try harder, and he climbed up upon the wolf to bite hard upon the man's ear and tug. The howl he'd managed meant that someone was on their way now, but for good measure the boy tipped his own head back too and howled a pitchy song to the pack. Where was his mother? She could wake up Eliphas and go save Aurues, of that Deus was sure.
