im not calling you dad

"I would expect nothing less of you, Empress." He smiled, a light bit of humor added to his voice with a small chuckle at the end. She went on about her leg and how she had broken it and he winced for her. A broken bone was painful, even after the fact. His ribs had been broken by the bear, but nothing weight baring like a leg. He couldn't imagine how painful it must've been to break it and continue on with it like that. He could only hope she was taking some strong painkillers, otherwise he wasn't sure how she was making it around. Suddenly his blindness didn't seem so bad, or at least pretty equal.

"That's unfortunate, I wish you a speedy recovery." He nodded, eyes lost in the direction her voice came from, struggling to locate her exact position. He had missed the squirrel that had accompanied the Empress, and barely even heard it talk of echolocation. It wasn't something he was familiar with in the least, and wondered if it would work. If squirrels used it, could wolves too? He'd never known a wolf to use it, but he also had never known a blind wolf.

"That's an interesting concept, perhaps I will try it." He didn't know what else to say on the subject, really. If all he had to do was make sound and listen for... something, then it didn't seem that difficult. Hopefully it was as easy as the squirrel made it sound.
