Winterhymns couldn't find sleep the first night being within the Palm Glades territory, he knew that he had covered a decent amount of ground yet that unease still twisted within his gut. The small feline had yet to find a place of his own though he was sure that it'd come to him once he was more comfortable and situated into this new place. His mind began to drift away with his thoughts, he would pace back and forth unsure of what his next move should be. "Ah... Think... What do I do next?" He sat down trying to collect all of his thoughts as he lifted a paw to pinch the bridge of his nose, he had put himself into this situation... He would have to get himself out. It had been foolish but his actions were out of good intentions, his younger cousin and brother would be safe... Whilst the soldiers searched for him, this thought alone did unnerve him but grabbing on his satchel and putting it on. He made his way down the beach glancing over at the ocean and unable to help but smile at the moons reflection upon the ocean. "Absolutely lovely."
He was almost lost in thought until the smell of smoke brushed against his nose and made him wince briefly, a frown forming itself on his maw but he only knew of a single individual whom had a cigarette when he had joined. The feline stopped walking in that moment debating if he should go any farther or possibly head in the other direction, lifting his nose to the air would he take note that his heavy aroma of lavender and honey probably caught wind to the wolf. With a sigh leaving slightly parted jaws, Win decided that he might as well make sure that the other man wasn't asleep with a cigarette in his jaws and possibly burn himself. When Win finally arrived did he notice that the other was sitting on his haunches, he hesitated for a moment before easing down as he took a few confident but careful steps forward "Hello there, Magnum."
He would give the other a chance to react to his greeting before continuing with a slow nod of his cranium "It is quite late isn't it?" There was a pause as he shifted his gaze away from Magnum only to look out to the ocean and the stars, a purr leaving him "It must be all the thoughts burdening you... I know that's why I can't seem to find any sleep tonight." The smaller creature would wrap his tail around his forepaws neatly only to pull the satchel closer to his side, he knew that he had a few things in there to remind him of home but they were so little in comparison to everything else. He wished he hadn't left Tanglewood since his brother and family was there but... This was for the best. He knew that they would find him eventually and kill him off, Winnie wouldn't want his family to be around for that. He unsheathed a single claw starting to drag it over the sand doodling something small before sweeping sand over it.
He seemed to have a lot more in common with Magnum, Winterhymns recalling someone that he once called a beloved husband yet that same man had the nerve to call him a whore. Oh, how he had been foolish. Just when Win had thought he had found it... He had been horribly wrong yet that was shortlived when his homeland had been destroyed. His "husband" had died that night but it had taken other lives with it, he never tried to dwell on these thoughts as they brought down his mood but it had proven difficult considering that one of his younger cousin's could've likely had the same fate as him. He had intervened when Eternalknight had consulted with him, Winterhymns could recall the mixed emotions that had pulsates through his body that night... How he told Eternalknight to take away the girl to somewhere safe and he would follow. He did end up following but only after his petite paws dripped with crimson.
His gaze was distant for a moment and he shuddered only to say with a soft mew "Ah, it's rather chilly tonight... Isn't it?" Winter would reach into his satchel and getting a grip of his scarf which he pulled out slowly before flinching realizing that his knife had slid out. He didn't bother with it until he had wrapped himself with the scarf did he pick it up looking at his family crest that was carved into the gold, a small frown on his maw only to slip it back into his satchel without much of a word. He just hoped that he hadn't startled Magnum with it, Win had no intentions of killing anyone or any thoughts like that anymore. Now, that he was safe within Palm Glades.
For now.
