Apologies [open]

She assured him that he was not needed, but the Warrior wasn't born yesterday. He knew better than to leave a stranger on the borders unaccompanied.

Crown would dip as his Uncle arrived on the scene. Leon was happy he did not have to linger long in awkward conversation with a she-wolf he was unfamiliar with. Something told him that despite her beauty, her heart was elsewhere - not with Valhalla. As Cairo spoke biting words, Leon's brow raised ever so slightly. He'd never heard his Uncle use a tone such as that, but somehow it seemed to be fitting for the situation. The girl went on to speak her piece, asking for forgiveness and telling her tale. Leon waited until it was courteous for him to take his leave, and he did so without much of a fuss. A simple nod was given to each of them, along with a final parting word to the woman. "Good day to you, Asheni." He turned to his uncle, a soft smile upon his features. "Cairo," It wasn't much, but the mere utterance said that Leon didn't understand what was going on, but he stood behind his Uncle no matter the situation. With that, the man took his leave, disappearing into the land he called home.

Exit Leon.
