Noting the presence of the Hyena, Ulysses turned his attention to the man with the most presence in the room who beamed at his arrival.
"If it isn't the pride of our Nester family." The man remarked as he arose and beckoned for Ulysses to approach.
Feeling embarrassed, Ulysses did come closer before suffering an incredibly tight embrace from the older man.
"I can hardly breathe, Father." Ulysses strained a few seconds later causing the man to begrudgingly let go.
"Tell me, how was your supplication?... Any revelations from the ancestor?"
"None at all, but fate is in our favor so all is well."
"That is good news as I wish for us to head out as soon as possible, we cannot afford to waste any more time, especially with the situation on the continent."
"Is the Hyena to be our guide, Father?" Ulysses inquired with the man nodding.
