[se] are we all caged in?

NOAH

Noah hadn't expected to see anyone this early. Most of the city still slumbered, and those that he encountered that were still awake were crawling now into bed. Eira alerted him to the woman before she spoke, causing him to turn his head and take her in. He stood from his crouching position, and Eira took her space between her bonded and the stranger. Though she seemed friendly enough, the griffin was still on edge in this mostly unknown place.

"Oh, I couldn't sleep." He said, turning to look briefly at the ursur as it stirred behind the bars. "I was just wandering, and found myself here." He was honest, and a small smile broke over his features. "I'm Noah." He introduced himself, hand reaching over Eira to offer to Lena. "I've never seen them look so docile." He gestured at the ursur within the enclosure, a chuckle forming on his lips and causing steam to puff from his mouth.
