Jakub’s midnight eyes cocked sidewards at the pegasus and then nodded understandably as he declined his offer to help. The man that he had encountered years ago at the battle, seemed as if life had started to catch up to him, wearing him down little by little but Jakub would only ponder on these things, never really putting much concern towards the man who had broken him in battle and who had tried to break many more innocents.
Before he could say anything further or in this case not say anything at all, just stand in awkward, weighted silence Leliana appeared. Her presence had always been a pleasant one for Jakub. He turned towards her as she pressed her muzzle to his bulky shoulder, and he smiled gratefully as a warmth of peace filled his body allowing his muscles to unknot and his stance to relax. He would forever appreciate her for the way she cared for others, a stark contrast between the two present before him. Leli was kind, and Wolfbane uncaring, or was he?
As Vulgaris and his rulers youngest joined the trio Jakub could sense a change in the immediate atmosphere. He could see how Vulgaris attempted to warm the welcome party to Wolfbane, presenting himself as if the two were still old friends even though the circumstances at hand must have changed their relationship to some degree in the slightest. His midnight eyes watched the two exchange words and noticed years of age, worry, and stress place themselves upon the warriors in front of him. He watched the cautiousness Wolfbane administered in the presence of a child, and he scrunched his nose slightly as the feeling of, respect, creep to his heart. But that was all he was here for right now, was to watch and listen and to help in any way that he could.

and out he came, holding his brothers heel
