The weight of history was all he needed to sense for Cormorant to hedge away from further questions of the matter; accepting the answers for what they were, final and clear. He almost envied it, how clear cut it seemed for the stranger, even if it had partly up-ended his life.

Cormorant listened often, and listened well, taking the other's words as gospel, for now. He had no reason to deny it, pain in his hide too fresh a memory to forget so easily. No nomad's land was fit for sanctuary, if it was, it was taken, held and contested by the packs too ready to toil for it. There was a tint to the stranger's words that left him thinking, stewing on it for but a few long moments. Silence, it seemed, came easily to both of them. An old friend, maybe.

Poetic, He mused, eyes drawn low to study the icy grass a moment. He sighed through his nose, a sound forlorn, More poetic than the harsh ground feels on your paws.

It was pragmatic, or some attempt at it. He had no reason to trust the other, but a name was but air, and so he spoke, tipping his chin toward his chest, gesturing to himself, Cormorant.
