The group of Hallows wolves started to move toward the border as they gathered everyone to leave. He hung toward the back of the group, partially because he was a bit worn out from talking to so many wolves today and so he could be a bit of a guard for the back of the group. He didn't expect them to run into any trouble on the way home, but with all the saber cats running around he felt like they couldn't be too careful. Just as the group began to shift and move he heard a voice behind him, calling and asking for him to wait. His ears perked with surprise and he turned to look over his shoulder, his pale blue gaze landing on one of the young ladies that had been beside Venom when they arrived. the pattern of her fur and the two toned antlers beginning to grow from her head were pretty distinct so she was hard to forget. Really, if he was being honest, all of the Empress' children were pretty memorable. They were all beautiful or handsome in their own way even if they were still very young.
He glanced back at the group who had continued on without him, but he could easily catch up. They weren't in any hurry after all. He looked back down at the Princess with interest, curious to see what she had hurried over for so urgently. He gave her a little smile when she stumbled over her words a bit, waiting patiently for her to explain how she had wanted to congratulate him, but that she had been tongue-tied before. Ezra gave her a friendly, toothy grin in response as he said, "Oh, that's alright. Talking around that many wolves is kinda hard anyway. But thank you, I appreciate it." He gave her a little dip of his head as he thanked her, making himself remember the manners he had been taught. Even if he was tired and ready to go hide out in the woods for a while to recuperate from all this socializing, he couldn't be rude to her. Her shyness was really endearing anyway and he could easily sympathize with how hard it was to talk to others even if she had wanted to.
