We conquered and crumbled

Within moments, his younger brother had also arrived at the scene. Seeing the golden male brought an uncomfortable feeling gushing over his emotions. Addressing outsiders wasn't his duty; had Solaris come to relieve him? Was he the one who dealt with it? Either way, his features denied such a possibility, which gave the earthen man some relief. However, he spoke to the female using her name of which she responded with a shortened version of his. Obviously, they knew each other and had to be feeling intruded upon by his own presence. No wonder she hadn't said much, especially in reply to his earlier inquiry. At this point, awkwardness had overcome his mind. What if the call was directly for his younger brother only? Before he could edge away in the fear of worsening the situation and interfering too deeply, the ash female spoke something that his hearing couldn't quite catch but repeated it in a shrilling scream. The noise startled the gentle brute, making his ears splay in surprise and shock. Silvius echoed the same frightened actions, shrinking back behind his skull. With eyes widened and his mind oblivious to what she was referring to, he barked a demand instinctively whilst facing the woman. "Who's gone?"

Turning his head to meet his brother's orange gaze, he tipped his chin to one side and softly asked with concern, "Do you know her?" It was a rather blunt query, but he had to be certain. Besides, he had no idea what the relationship between them was. Acquaintances? Friends? More than that? What if this was all a private conversation, not intended for his ears to hear? Feeling guilty because of it, he had already engaged, despite the fact it was an impulse. However, a strange feeling inside of him made him consider that what or who she may have spoken of held a distant relation to himself, or at least his family.
