He, too, hadn't been spending much of his nights sleeping lately. Between his slowly resolving sickness and the tension between him and Nirali, he found that his mind was too heavy with thoughts and his chest still too painful to be able to rest comfortably for any length of time. So long before the sun began to rise, he had started arduously making his way through the fog, attempting to patrol their hopefully temporary claim. Exploring wasn't exactly easy with everything that had been going on, and so he assumed they would be here longer than any of them probably wanted while they figured out where to go next. Not that he would have much say in it, which was mostly his own doing; he wasn't sure what Nirali had told her family, but he couldn't help but wonder if they felt the same way she did. So he had been careful to keep to himself, falling into old habits again. It seemed that whenever things became too confusing or uncomfortable for him, he preferred to avoid it at all costs. Which was why when he caught the leader's scent drifting by with the fog, he moved to try and walk in the opposite direction. But when she spoke, he froze. Not only did it sound like she was talking to someone, but she was also a lot closer than he had originally thought. He scanned the fog and trees, trying his hardest to see through the obstructive haze. And when he realized he wouldn't be able to see much despite his efforts, he lifted his nose in the air and inhaled deeply. The sent of a stranger made him tense, ears flattening briefly as he began to move towards his companion, or where he thought she might be.

It turned out his judgment was pretty off. He caught a glimpse of Nirali's dark ears and realized he was too far behind her. He at least had her definite location now, and so he moved forward, coming silently to her side. Disagreement or not, he wouldn't hesitate to offer assistance if she needed it. Regardless of her feelings about his honor, it was still important to him that he do what was right and what he would want if their situation was reversed.
