It was a strange thing for the male to be out at night, especially these days. Though it was true that most wolves were active at night, Wretch and Siku usually slept and therefore Saul slept with them. Still, there were occasions in Dahlia where he left the cabin at night to hunt or to walk amoung the stars. And this was a time where he was happy to leave them sleeping. Wretch wasnt up to much still and she needed all the healing sleep she could get. So the male had left the confines of the office building they had temporarily taken up residence to come out here. And he was glad he did. He felt like her were on the edge of the world, teetering and wheeling his arms to try and stay on dry land. It was not an unpleasent feeling, the vertigo of being on the edge of the island and know there was nothing you could do to stop yourself from falling. The silvery male he had found started at his voice and Saul smiled softly. A man of very little words it seemed, for he said three.
"Saul Stormbringer"
He offered in return, settling down with his strong arms looped casually across his knees drawn up towards his body. Not a defensive or passive position- his limbs were too far apart to be accused of such a thing. His feet dug into the sand, still warm from the heat of the earlier day. Green eyes were wide as they gazed up, trying his best to see what the male beside him saw. But the more he stared the more blurred the pinpricks became and he blinked rapidly to get his eyes to focus again. With a soft sigh and a shake of his head, the male turned back to the one named Noah, wondering where on earth he had learnt to read the sky like that. Comparing the dots of charcoal on the silvered mans paper to the sky above, Saul found a surprisngly accurate image of the stars on the page.
"How did you learn to read the stars?"
He asked quietly. The peace of the night washed over the agouti male and he smiled softly to himself. He hadnt understood what Nayru and Razekial had been on about when they proposed the move, but the Stormbringer was beginning to see it now.
