He may of laughed had he felt the situation far lighter. Gabriel did indeed look neither like a wolf nor a coyote, but rather a dog—a canine domesticated and modified by humans to suit their capricious whims and needs. A slave to the race long since deceased, it was a peculiar appearance since their blood had been filled with wolf and coyote for the last few generations. But no, it should be what one’s soul looks like where judgment arises, however too many are blind to true distinction and choose to simply see only what was right in front of them and nothing beyond. Before anyone’s eyes Jael was a wolf and Gabriel a dog, but that was not where their actions lead them. The Aquila continued and his words came as a surprise to the youth. He was.. useful because he looked like a wolf? It did make sense, but he hadn’t even thought of the possibilities before. The wolves, and everyone else, for that matter, would see him as one of their own. Other than the scent of Inferni on his coat he could easily pass for one of them and not arise suspicion with the larger canines.
“Really?” he said, the surprise remotely evident in his voice. He allowed a small smile to cross his features in response, quickly fading back into determined indifference. “Is there anything specifically I can do for you now then?” the boy asked, aiming to be useful to his pack leader. He didn’t know the area and surrounding packs very well yet, but for the sake of politics and the safety of Inferni he’d get to know it quickly and scout out the surrounding wolf packs.
