Remus wandered across Boreas and Auster in the time since he arrived here, occasionally stopping by the castle dwelling pack to check in on his brother, but mostly just keeping to himself. He didn't necessarily dislike the solitude, but the longer he was by himself the more he thought about all the time he had spent growing up with their family and how close they had all been. He kind of missed that constant companion ship and was tempted to at least join up with the pack that Romulus called home just to have an excuse to be around him at least, but he also didn't want to just continue riding his brother's coat tails or disrupt this thing that Roman had going on. He had a life and a girl and all that. He couldn't just drop everything to hang out with his brother and Remus knew that.
So that left Remus wondering how to fill the time. He often thought about the pretty mottled girl he had ran into a couple of times now, maybe because of how interesting she was, maybe because she was really the only wolf he had spoken to much since he arrived here, maybe because he couldn't really get the moment out of his head when he asked about her pack and she just seemed so strained by it. She was even younger than him, but she just seemed to be so stressed about things regardless. He obviously didn't know the whole situation or what was going on, but why not try to brighten her day a bit. He did just a little bit of prep work at a near by beach, just clearing out a little spot for them to lounge and tucking away some dried meats in case they got hungry, before he went to the border of the pack she lived in to find her.
It was still pretty early in the day when he got there—maybe a couple hours shy of noon—and instead of calling for her he just found a spot a comfortable distance from the border and waited in the shade of a tree. He figured a princess would probably be patrolling at some point or would at least come close enough to the border for him to spot her at the very least so he just waited so he wouldn't risk drawing the attention of anyone else. Sure enough, she caught a glimpse of her familiar coat through he pale trees and he grinned, getting up from his resting spot and trotting over to the edge of the border. "Ike! Psssssst! Ike!" he called in a hushed voice, waving his paw to get her attention and flag her down.
