small talk

It wasn't the easiest of news to share, and even after his howl fell silent he found himself regretting it. And yet he knew it had to be done. Maverick squared his jaw and stilled his tail, allowing it to fall comfortably around his hips where it would remain. There was uncertainty in his stare, but not about his decision - rather his choice to bring it forth so quickly as the choice had been made. Time was of the essence, and Maverick would have to push forward with his decision. As she neared he spotted her almost instantly, but instead of letting his head fall in line with her movements, he would remain as still as a statue. The last few seconds before she settled before him were absorbed as time in which he could calculate his phrasing precisely. To misspeak would be to burn a bridge he could not afford to lose. "Destruction," he chided as she came forth and took a seat before him. To see her as a Queen sent a pang of loss to the pit of his stomach, but he gulped it down while she greeted him. Emerald eyes met her single crimson orb. His vision didn't waver for a second. She urged him to speak, and he would oblige her command. "I have spent much time thinking lately, attempting to find myself now that I am without the very thing I was raised to possess. My wife and I have come to a decision," he paused, so far pleased with his certain, yet polite phrasing. "We have decided to leave Seracia. I cannot say for how long we will be gone, but we have agreed to investigate a new fledgeling pack by the name of Ebony - in the West. I would be most pleased to forge an alliance with them if you see it fit. I believe their mindset is much akin to our own." Or what it once was... he noted in his mind alone. "My children are all of age to survive on their own - and each has been given the option to choose his or her own path. I cannot speak for them, but I imagine a few will wish to go with us while a few others remain behind." He paused, breathing a sigh. "Perhaps it is beyond my reach to ask such a thing, but I plead with you to treat them fairly and if anything should happen I humbly request that a message be sent." Another sigh. "Seracia will forever be my home. It is ultimately my intention to visit periodically, if I am permitted to do so - of course." He would ultimately never trespass, if the new Queen sincerely did not want his presence. When he was through his head would dip an inch in respect and reverence. "Also, please know that this decision is in no way related to your coronation." He would tag on the final fact for her feelings' sake.
