The only areas of Boreas that Remus had yet to really explore were toward the northern reaches of the continent so he started to head that way, cutting through the mountains as he went so he could knock out two birds with one stone. He planned to make a bit of a loop through the north and then head back down through the west to get to Auster so he could go check in on his brother. He hadn't been down to The Hallows in a bit, but that was just the way he and Roman's relationship worked. They were close and he couldn't imagine going his life without his brother, but they also didn't mind spending stretches of time apart. They lived their own lives and did their own things and eventually they could come back together again and act like no time had passed. He was just glad he ended up finding Roman when he did instead of continuing to hunt around Boreas and Auster for him all this time.
Remus started making his way through the rocky mountain pass, carefully navigating through the treacherous terrain as he went. If he had known the mountains were going to be this dangerous he probably would have just given it up and gone around the mountains, but he stubbornly went on his way and now he was too far turn back. As he was walking a roar from a tiger made him stop, his ears perking as he listened to both the first call and the one that followed a moment later. He didn't expect to find tigers up here, but Boreas continued to catch him by surprise and put him in the thick of new challenges without him even intending to find them. He huffed and continued on his way, hoping maybe he'd get lucky and just avoid them entirely. Fighting a couple of big cats on this kind of terrain certainly didn't sound like a good time.
He was a bit more cautious as he went forward so when he heard paws moving along the path ahead of him it made him go onto high alert, his ruby and emerald eyes scanning the rocks ahead of him for any other sign of life. Eventually he reached a point where the path he was walking on met up to join with another and he spotted a hulking, purple-marked brute following the opposite path. Since they were both going in the same direction, he gave the stranger a nod and asked once he was close enough to speak comfortably, "Did you hear those tigers earlier? I couldn't even tell which direction it came from since it echoed off the rocks."
