Ouroboros Spine aftaim

It amused him faintly to see a bit of confusion and surprise on the male's features when he was spoken to- but like Adrastus, he conformed quickly and easily to respond in like. While he was aware of the fact that he had little sway over making decisions about taking new wolves into their village, it did please him to meet someone who was supple and courteous. Kukutux and Sialuk would be pleased, he thought, to meet someone who would share in their ways, or so it seemed. So a faint smile and a nod were given to him- reassuring him that his greeting had been appreciated and accepted. 

As soon as he mentioned the word Moonspear, Adrastus's lips parted slightly in surprise. "Yes," He blurted, and he felt his heart thrumming in his chest. Fate had brought them perhaps another survivor? Was this male a former packmate that Kukutux and Sialuk might know? The prospect of delivering them an old friend- or perhaps even a family member- excited him. The women had mourned for days- so there was hope that perhaps this man's return was a gift. "They relocated here after the star fell and struck the mountain. Are you of Moonspear?" He asked. Normally, Adrastus was a bit more calm and reserved- but he was eager to know if he'd finally chanced upon the opportunity to reunite his packmates with one of their lost folks.
