Reporting for duty

He didn't have to wait all that long before a figure appeared on the opposite shore and the jiggling and movement of the ferry as it was pulled flush to the shore he was sitting on brought his gaze down to it. He put the pieces together easily and got up to move onto the ferry, standing on it as he was pulled across. It was certainly unlike anything he had experienced before, but it was definitely better than having to swim every time and he imagined it made moving larger items across the water easier than it would be with a bridge. Once he made it to the beach of the island, he hopped down off of the ferry, the movement jostling Aquila on his shoulder and making the black and chestnut eagle flare his wings for a moment before settling back down.

Turning to take in the black and white man up close for the first time, Ezra dipped his head politely in greeting. Even before he introduced himself, Ezra could guess that this was the Chimera that Artorias had told him about—or warned him about more like. They were matching in height, but obviously was a bit more filled out and muscular since he was older. He held himself like someone that would own an island. He was a bit surprised to notice Chimera's teeth as he spoke—catching a glimpse of the unusually sharp teeth that mirrored his own. He was sure most wolves wouldn't notice as quickly, but he had gotten into the habit of looking for them as a pup since he hadn't met anyone besides Resin with teeth that had formed like his and that habit hadn't died as he got older.

He nodded at the question he was asked, giving Chimera a slight grin. "That's right. I'm Ezra, Templar of the Hallows. Nice to meet you." he said in return to introduce himself. Aquila took off from his shoulder, taking flight across the island to start getting a lay of the land, but Ezra didn't pay him any mind. He had grown up with the eagle so the feeling of his take offs and landings were normal and expected now. "Artorias told me a little bit about your pack and what you needed help with, but I'd love some more specifics. Is now a good time for a tour?" He noticed the blood that speckled over the man's legs and didn't want to interrupt whatever he was working on so if he needed to wait he certainly could.
