continental trip round 2: auster

The twins watched and waited, Sol's eyes roaming the castle's expansive walls while Khonsu's remained fixed forward to watch for movement. This would be the first Auster pack they were to visit - would the culture here be different, seeing as it was a different continent? The living arrangements sure were a far cry from the packs scattered throughout Boreas. "Do you think it's very dark in there?" Sol asked his brother while they waited.

Khonsu shushed him gently as a wolf came into view, a male whose fur was as visibly thick as their own. It sparked interest in the fuschia eyed twin, who knew a kindred spirit when he saw one. This man's soul must have been once housed within a mountain just like theirs had been. "Greetings, Artorias." Khonsu began with a respectful dip of his head. It was rare a wolf was polite enough to ask aloud how they preferred to be addressed, it spoke good things of this man's character. "I am Khonsu and this is Sol." He gestured to his brother, perhaps superfluously. "We are two souls and prefer to be addressed that way. Thank you for asking."

Sol gave the stranger a shy smile before taking his turn to speak, beginning his well-rehearsed explanation on their presence at Artorias' border. "We are new to this land as I'm sure you can tell." His cobalt eyes dropped a moment in nerves, flicking between the grass and the alpha, and seemingly unable to decide where to direct his attention. "We are in search of a home, and have petitioned every alpha of this land to hear an explanation of their packs before deciding where we might fit in. Could you tell us about The Hallows? That is, if you're currently accepting members."
