The excited little girl was obviously happy to be out and about, and the agouti male was proud to see her getting stronger and braver. She wasnt quite ready to be out talking to others yet, he could tell she was still quite and reserved around those that may end up living with them- Nayru, Melee and Range especially. But she would get there, he knew she would. He laughed softly as wide green eyes looked at all the buildings around them. It was going to be hard to find one suitable for all of them. Wretch voiced his opinions and Saul nodded softly. "Yep, all of us. Siku, you and I, Gideon, Melee and Range... maybe even Nayru." He offered, although he wasnt sure about Nayru at the moment. As a leader he respected and liked her. But as a friend and a potential breaker of his brothers heart, he wasnt so sure at the moment. He intended to speak to her in the next couple of days, although he didnt mention any of this to Wretch. She probably would have understood, but he didnt want to voice his opinion at the moment.

As he nudged her she giggled and Saul felt his heart lift. Though not technically his daughter, she was so like a daughter to him in so many ways. She spoke again and Saul gave a soft nod. "Lead the way, little one. We'll go wherever you want." He said with a soft chuckle of his own. He ambled behind his half-daughter, critical green eyes still noticing the slight limp to her walk, the hesitancy to put all her weight down on it. Despite being fully healed, there was still muscle mass to build up, to train once more. And her bones needed to get stronger again. Still, she was doing well as it was and he let himself get distracted by the sounds of her voice coming towards him. She exclaimed about it being like a forest in the city and Saul smiled. "An urban jungle" He offered to his half-daughter before she bounded off.

Her insistence that it would be here they lived made Saul take a good look around. It was a nice neighborhood, a little higher class. But as with everything in these times, most of the building were in a state of needing some serious repair works. Still, he nodded towards Wretch. "I like it around here... lets go and have a look at some houses eh?" He said, titling his head to allow her to lead the way.
