Saul was certainly an over-thinker and it was safe to say that he felt as though he was about to pass out. The doubt and uncertainty racing through his body was enough to give him a serious stomach cramp. It also didn't help that a million different possibilities were racing through his head- the 'what ifs' were beginning to get a little unbearable. He didn't think his insecurities had ever been this bad and it was a terrifying moment of his life. Green eyes were trained on his cousins body as he saw her relax, he felt a spark of hope. Cinnamon backed ears crashed forward as her soft voice came again, the tension in his body lessening slightly. She told him about where she lived as well as the services they provided to be able to stay there. Saul had strived for most of his life to be a useful member of a pack, an asset instead of a liability and he prided himself on the fact that most saw him as such. He knew that if he was given the change, he would do everything in his power to maintain this reputation. Of course, the paranoid part of his mind old him that this wasn't a 'Yes' this was a, 'Wait and see' kind of situation. She'd indicated the direction of the place and Saul wondered how far away from Halifax it actually was.
He didn't say anything for the moment, the nervous ball in his stomach still tight as Lilin continued on to tell him who was there. Although she gave no gender to 'Ariadne', it was clearly a feminine name, so Lilin was not on her own in that department. She turned to Temeraire then, who had been relatively silent at the moment. As he was addressed, the dark furred boy tucked his muzzle into his chin, blue eyes sparkling as he looked up at his cousin. "We can play?" He squeaked, whip-like tail thumping against Saul's leg. Saul chuckled softly as Lilin continued to introduce the others, including Barrett and his 'associates' Axle and Grit. Saul wondered what Barrett used his property for, but he supposed he would find out sooner than later. Lilin finished by telling him that they had a small stable, but it was filled at the moment. Nodding softly, he reached back to stroke Hermes' muzzle softly.
"The boys are used to the cold- they should be alright outside as long as there isn't a harsh frost or anything." He said, before Lilin told him that they should go and find Barrett. Nerves twisted his gut once more as he moved back to take the reins of the two stallions. "Lilin... thank you for helping me." He said quietly, a hand run nervously over his arm as he moved forward. "How did you find Barrett?" He asked, green eyes inquisitive as he moved forward and allowed her to take the lead.
