Standing on the shores of Ina'mos, the kingdom he was supposed to be grateful to have been raised within, eager to return to so that he might begin his service, he narrowed pale blue eyes and tried to better glimpse Tas'alea distantly across the water, but nothing seemed powerful enough a force to push him off of the island to formally begin the Agoge. He didn't want to participate, but of course he didn't have a choice; there would be no tolerating a disgrace buried inside of Goliath's lineage. He flattened his ears against the top of his head, pushing the sand around with his oversized paws to waste away the minutes.
Lilith had already left the island, as had the twins from Zohartze's litter. His sister, so driven to impress their father, hadn't surprised him in the least when she ended up being the first to leave. She had a lot more to prove, and this satisfied him, seeing her struggle with something that, for once, her suffocating attitude couldn't change. He had been happy to see her go, but now it was his job to follow her, and to maybe even work alongside her as they trained in preparation to steal an egg.
He would make the most of what little time he had left to be alone. The sooner he left, the sooner it could be over, and then he could return to Ina'mos and hopefully be granted the freedom to pursue his true interest: poison. He wouldn't get his hopes up, but at the very least he could potentially use poisons to his advantage during the Agoge; he was open to experimentation.
There was a figure on the shore with him, he could make out her dark pelt through the corner of his eye, and though he saw her he had no intention of speaking with her - it seemed, however, that her agenda was perhaps a touch different from his own. She seemed to be approaching, and with a sigh he turned to face the inevitable. "Morrigan." He had never spoken to Messoria's daughter before, but that didn't mean he didn't know her name. He made a habit of knowing those that shared his space, even when no part of him sought to truly know them. "Do you greet everyone who comes here to begin their journey to Tas'alea? To offer a pleasant farewell and good luck?" His tone spoke volumes for his disdain towards the fate that awaited him across the water. Eyes were near lifeless as they fluttered closed, savouring the Ina'mos air, offering the she-wolf one of his rare smiles - too rare, in fact, to successfully discern between real or fake.
