Trust had to be built up from nothing between the two wolves but Dexter had grown in his time away from Taviora. He was more outspoken than in the past where he kept most of his thoughts to himself. He was better at communication and though he was used to working in the dark alone, he was getting better at working with others as he had shown in his hunt with Talien and his predator hunt with the rest of the pack. He could already tell Alistair was an intelligent wolf with a great mind and he was going to enjoy investigating this crime with him, watching the many angles they can go at every obstacle to get the best results. He was actually starting to look forward to this. He could already see some sort of dark emotion boiling in Alistair's eyes when he asked after Solaris. It seemed he was going to get some bad news but he pricked his ears attentively toward the other wolf anyway. He listened carefully as Alistair listed Solaris as friend and mentor. They must have been close. He could practically smell the disappointment in Alistair that Solaris had left.

Dexter tilted his head in intrigue when Alistair said that Solaris and Eden used to speak to each other in Latin. He scowled thoughtfully, knowing the language seemed to be ruled only by assassins and those of the Angel bloodlines. He shook his head in disappointment at Alistair's question.

"I can speak some mean Nahuatl from my father's side, but unfortunately my mother never could understand Heyel's gibberish."

He shrugged lightly, hoping it wouldn't hold up their investigation too much. Would they have to find someone else who could understand Latin to help? Maybe they could just work around it. He agreed wholeheartedly about Eden having an alibi by now and scowled thoughtfully when he heard Alistair sigh. He nodded in agreement again when Alistair brought up how Zelda had a lot on her plate right now and they needed to make this investigation as smooth as possible. He was entirely agreeable with that. He knew it wouldn't be perfect and they would have obstacles and pit falls but he was willing to slow down anytime they needed to and work through it one piece at a time. He watched as Alistair smirked when he asked which direction the other wolf wanted to go in. His ears strained forward, eager to hear his plan.

Alistair told him that he had a sibling in Glorall and she would be a reliable source and otherwise he had a plan B. Dexter smirked in return and nodded.

"Sounds like a solid plan to me. Guess we should head that way then."

He scowled thoughtfully when Alistair told him to take a similar route if he had friends there. Dexter shook his head sheepishly this time. He had never made friends in that neck of the woods. He looked down at his paws.

"I don't have friends...but I do have an ally...of sorts. It seems my sister Zeltzin got a little cozy with Eden while I was gone. I just don't know if I want to bring her into this, especially if she still has feelings for him."

He scowled at Alistair, waiting to hear his thoughts on the matter. No matter that they just met. He already felt he could trust Alistair's judgement. He knew enough about his own sister to know that she would wear her heart on her sleeve and she wasn't a fling type of female. If she had any kind of affair with Eden, it was because she cared about him and you don't just get over that. He didn't want to drag her into it if she knew she might end up hurting Eden and he certainly didn't want to trick her into giving out any information. That was even if she knew anything. Surely Eden wouldn't oust himself to the sister of the male he had poisoned or something like that. He was way too intelligent for that. DExter wasn't sure which direction he should take. Maybe Alistair had some ideas.
