It's been awhile, where should we begin?

Ulric gave Sirius a faint smile when he agreed, asking what he needed. "A miracle perhaps?" he joked with a little shake of his head. "Just... some advice I suppose." He nodded for Sirius to follow him and he led the way out of the castle walls, walking around the grounds along the wall at an easy pace to give them a bit of privacy while he tried to figure out where to even begin. A little background perhaps? "Resin asked that I take over the pack from her over a season ago if anything were to happen to her, at least until her children are ready to lead... I agreed, but I honestly never really expected to need to follow through with that promise and... especially not like this." He kept his eyes on the path ahead of them for the most part, but would occasionally glance over at Sirius as he spoke.

"I'm trying to figure out where the balance is.. between alpha and father. When I joined The Hallows and began dedicating all of my time and energy into helping Resin build the pack, my family began to slip to the wayside... Now one of my daughters is gone and my mate along with her." He wouldn't just share these details with anyone, but he respected and trusted Sirius. Even beyond his experience with the man, he knew how much Tamsyn and Resin trusted him as well and that was enough for him. He looked over at Sirius again with a soft frown. "I can't lose any more of them."
