It wasn't that often that he got a call from the border to answer and when he heard the howl calling for someone to answer he was quick to his paws. It wasn't a voice he recognized so as he moved toward the edge of the pack's territory past the castle walls he wore a pleasant, friendly smile. Now that Eska was getting back on her feet he felt like he could breathe slightly easier - not that the thought of hunting down her attacker had really left his mind. However, as he promised, he would help Eska train and get her into the shape where they would feel confident going to find the bastard together so she could get her revenge. As much as he wanted to tear into the man himself, he wanted her to have her peace even more.
As he passed through the opening in the castle walls and rounded the border to head toward the border his eyes landed on the young man and woman sitting there waiting and his blood ran cold. For a second his steps stuttered and hesitated, blinking as he looked at them. For the briefest moment he thought that it was Aranea and Allegro - recognizing the black and gold fur patterns from the trip the man had made to The Hallows with their children. The girl was so similar to Aranea in her stature and coloring that it was staggering. However, when he blinked again he started to notice the differences. Markings that Aranea hadn't had, the difference in the patterns and face markings that make the boy's appearance different from Allegro's. He still felt like he had seen a ghost, but his mind was no longer playing tricks on him, making him think that Aranea had somehow come back from the dead.
However, he knew without a shadow of a doubt that these were her children. Somehow he managed to keep his paws moving toward them with just a slight hesitation and he came to a stop in front of the pair of yearlings. "Hello, I'm Ulric," he said simply in greeting, settling back onto his haunches while he tried to put the smile back on his lips. For a moment he didn't know what to say and just gave the children space to introduce themselves while he continued to try and gather his thoughts. "You're Aranea's children, aren't you?" he questioned even though he already knew the answer, feeling as if he had to try and make conversation somehow.
