His head turned to the voice, icy blue eyes settling on the stranger but only one was able to truly register him.
"Ulf." He spoke hesitantly as his accent came through, shining a light on his foreignness to these parts. His brows briefly furrowed as he tried to recognize the stranger but nothing seemed familiar about them. Granted he had seen the same twisted snarl and lifted tail before but never on this figure. The male let his ears settle back against his crown.
Ulf knew that you and here were not words that belonged together. He knew nothing of this place. The male had never stepped a paw in this place before — at least not as far as he could remember.
His head shook side to side. "No." Ulf was not supposed to be here. While it was not a bad place to be, it was not home. There were no rough voices here. "You know here?" Perhaps this place was the stranger's home. If that was the case then Ulf knew he had to keep moving on.
Travel. Yes, he knew that word, his father had used it occasionally when the northern creatures had to move about. A question hung on the tip of his tongue but he was beaten to the punch when the stranger asked something first.
"North." He didn't have a specific location to give. "You?" He asked as his head gave a gentle tilt to the side. Ulf craved to know more about the strange places and the stranger he had found himself with.
A fellow northerner. Ulf wasn't sure if that made him feel better or worse. A bit of both really. Better because it meant perhaps he hadn't gotten too lost but worse because it seemed like neither of them knew where they had wound up.
Zeus.
He repeated the name softly with a small wave of his tail. It was a rather nice name even if it rolled off his tongue heavily. Where go?
The canine asked with genuine curiosity.
