Ulysses' journey leads him to the mountains. Here in the rocky mountainside he's slipped and tumbled down some of the rocky hills more than he likes to admit. He's a prideful man, but even he has to admit when he should give up and pursue another, more safer route.
The final moment in which he makes this decision is when he's heading up a steep, rocky cliff side. The wolfdog is attempting to make it to a grassy cliff that leads to an opening of a cave, but life has different plans for him. One slip of his paw on the gravelly pebbles and he's rolling and tumbling down.
By the time he makes it to the bottom he's got a few scrapes and bruises, he's going to be a little sore but that won't be a problem. So from there he takes it upon himself to go the safer route.
Ulysses sidles into the forest, passing by the thick oak trees. His nose instantly presses downward to pick up any scents of possible prey. Instead his senses pick up something else, it's distinctly wolf maybe something else. The trail has a more musky scent, hinting at it being male.
Nose to the ground he follows the scent for a while. Then he finds this stranger, curled up against the thick bark of an oak tree. He can see by the weariness of the others expression that there's not something quite right. Ulysses takes the chance and pads his way over cautiously. Making more noise than he would if he were actually attempting to sneak up on him, he has no intention of spooking him.
Large ears pointed back in anticipation, he stops about five feet away. Ulysses' large form stands over him even at this range and his ghostly eyes watch over him, awaiting for his presence to be known.
