A loud tapping sound echoed through the halls of the courthouse as Regner made his way along, the heavy wood of his staff beating against the stone floor in time with his steps. Regner had good days and bad days with his leg and this was one of the bad days; the muscles in his elft leg were stiff and weak and the scar running down from his thigh across his knee hurt like somebody had put a brand to it every time he moved his knee, much more painful than the dull ache it normally merited. Normally Regner would not have been active on such a day but he refused to miss Adelle's ceremony just because his leg was hurting.
Slowly but steadily Regner made his way from the room he shared with Adelle, who had already vacated it in a rush earlier, to the great hall where the ceremony was being held. Walking in he saw that several members were already there, one of whom was a large white and black dog that he wasn't familiar with. Hadley was a more familiar site and Regner nodded to his as he limped past, offering a short "Hello Hadley." as he looked curiously at the being, a fox he realised after a second, that Hadley was holding in his arms.
Finally Regner reached his goal. Leaning heavily on his staff Regner inclined his head and ears to the black alpha, greeting him shortly as he had done Hadley, "Jazper." Then he turned his attention to Adelle, pride glinting in his eyes. Painfully Regner bent down, letting out a grunt of pain as he jarred his leg. When he was kneeling he reached one hand out to Adelle, stroking the back of the puppy's neck as he spoke. " Jeg er stolt af dig Adelle, man vil vokse op. Deres forældre ville være stolt, hvis de var her." His piece said, Regner pushed himself back into a standing position and backed off, leaning against the wall next to Hadley.
