🗡️ - His ear twitched at the question, oh, he couldn’t help but think: - would the same have ever asked from Nicodemus? Man whose ideas everyone seemed so fond of - despite lack of solid proofs. Jenner himself considered himself to be the second patriarch of the colony, right below Nicodemus, the leader of rats.
The two notable figures since the forming day of their union had slowly driven apart by differing views about the colony’s future - one seeking freedom, another seeking to keep building what they already had. Had he sought to be the next in line, it seemed the elder in rule had found a younger, more naive heir to his throne. Well, as long as Jenner stood in good health, he would push the views towards more rational direction. Yet, another travel through wilderness, in search of a land there were no other proof existing than the leader’s word - was foolish!
❝ Are you questioning your superior, Brutus? ❞ With sharpness, he turned, arching his brow at the younger rat. A soft grunt in his throat, he eventually hid his bared teeth. Brushing away the irritation. ❝ We’re heading out. Before sun rises. ❞
