Only in the dark of night
Sah hummed in thought, lips twitching slightly in amusement at Seren's eager question. Her small gesture wasn't lost on him and it made him feel warm. " I can't speak for your typical wolf, my kind were as intelligent as humans. My mind hasn't changed at all even if I physically have." He paused to think about her question deeper. "I'd have to say that the biggest difference is how they connect with others. The whole personal relationships between friends, family, etc. Humans are so much more distant. So less inclined to show their affection and care for each other. It's sad." Sah shook his head, real pity in his voice. "It wasn't uncommon amongst my kind for friends to curl up together to sleep, either for warmth or company. Verbal terms of endearment and other things were equally common between friends as well as mates. Though different terms were used obviously. Here in Caido..." Sah trailed off slightly. "I've hardly seen anyone greet each other with a hug. A few handshakes or pats on the back, sure. But it seems so cold."
Sah's melancholy vanished at Seren's pout. It was rather adorable. "I know. But you can't speed up life experience." He gave a half-hearted shrug. The former canine found himself raising a brow at the demigod's tirade. He understood it completely. "It was the same for me. I was the leader of my pack, and I was far too young to be. Circumstances led to the death of our previous one and she named me her heir. It was an uphill battle to prove myself and I faced the same difficulty. No one knew what to expect from me, or how to treat me. Was I just a juvenile in way over his head, or was I their Alpha? Finding that balance was difficult but after a few years of leadership, we figured it out." He was sure that Seren would also figure that balance out and prove herself to those that doubted her.
