Skyrim/Aveloth - [ Private - SlayerofLight & ScarsLove ]

[ScarsLove]

Knowing that no matter what she said, did or acted, it was pointless. Sighing in defeat, Xandra replied quietly, "I suppose."

--

Tali looked at the enchanted elven boots. Slightly, she felt jealous of Eon's gift from king Almond but it passed just as fast.

"Thank you for this wonderful gifts." She said gratefully, drawing the bow and testing it out.

[SlayerOfLight]

''Wonderful.'' said Xaron. ''The dear wood elfies may already have gotten used to you functioning as a nice additional decoration to their already graceful lands, but whatever.''

Xaron tapped the ground with his staff again, and the vines released Xandra, dropping her on her knees.

--

''Oh and since Eon may have no use for it as a full-blown warrior, I think this would also serve you well in times where your bow has no use.'' said Almond as he handed an elf dagger over to her.

Meanwhile Eon was too busy testing out his boots and performing all sorts of crazy stunts, which resulted him falling down and slightly injuring himself.

''Son of a b#tch...'' he muttered.

[ScarsLove]

Xandra felt instantaneous relief in her limbs, grunting in pain. "Thank the heavens." Whined the girl, morphing from her human to wolf form, licking her wounds and stretching her aching muscles. The peace was only momentary and Xandra remembered that even with her new found freedom, she was to serve loyally alongside Eon and Tali, much to her reluctance.

Curling her teeth as Xaron, the black wolf trotted ahead, back to Almonds residence.

--

"Thank you again, Almond." She replied, admiring the dagger and sheathing it in a holster.

When Tali turned to see how Eon was adjusting to the boots, he landed firmly on his backside. "Smooth moves there Eon. What do you think you are? A ninja?" Remarked Tali, finding herself in a giggle fit at the amount of ridiculous stunts he tried.

[SlayerOfLight]

''No, an elf. Obviously.'' replied Eon with rolling eyes.

''It may take some time for a human to get used to those boots, but you'll do fine. Soon you'll be able to perform those stunts flawlessly.'' said Almond.

--

Xaron followed Xandra back to Almond's dwelling, and entered it with her.

''I'm back, and guess who's here with me.''

Eon turned around.

''Oh thanks, looks like you brought us our pack mule. Right?'' said Eon, as he eyed Tali.

[ScarsLove]

"Not an elf, but a clumsy fool." Tali retorted, laughing while Eon straightened himself up.

''It may take some time for a human to get used to those boots, but you'll do fine. Soon you'll be able to perform those stunts flawlessly.''

Suddenly, in came Xaron with a very unhappy wolf tailing behind him. Xandra felt her lip curl into an angry snarl as she approached Eon and Tali.

''Oh thanks, looks like you brought us our pack mule. Right?''

She smiled quite cocky, patting the wolf on her head, "That's right. You hear that, Xandra? You're our personal pack mule. Enjoy."

At this Xandra morphed into her human form, gaping in shock, "It's not bad enough that you kidnap me, restrain and torture me but now I'm supposed to carry all of your [censored]. You've got to be kidding me, I can be put to better use than that. I can fight, I can stalk, I can run fast. If I'm forced to be your follower, don't belittle me like this!"

[SlayerOfLight]

''Now hold on there for a second,'' said Xaron. ''I merely brought you here to be their pet. So whether or not you'll be their pack mule isn't up to me to decide. You should negotiate that with them. Though the only worthy advise I have to offer if you don't want to be a pack mule, is to be a good girl.''

''Well, I just hope that loremaster rehabilitated that crazy hellhound enough.'' thought Eon to himself.

''Anyway, the three of you should leave soon, for every second as we speak of, the time goes on and we don't know when Vuldred will launch the attack on Daryon.'' spoke Almond.

[ScarsLove]

''Anyway, the three of you should leave soon, for every second as we speak of, the time goes on and we don't know when Vuldred will launch the attack on Daryon.''

Shifting to her feral form, Xandra gave them no time to react or discuss what they intended to do with her. She was her own being, her own wolf. There was no way that she would idly submit and be a little pack mule, at-least without Xaron around. They'd have to force her.

Worst case scenario was an arrow, dagger or sword in her face, for which she would return with her teeth and claws. 'Equally sharp and dangerous as any blade' Thought the wolf, beckoning Eon and Tali with her tail. 'The sooner we get on our way the better, then I can say farewell to these humans and their pesky elves.'

Assuming that their stay was pretty much over, Tali stretched out her arms and yawned loudly, "Just what I love to do, travel with little to no energy in some foreign woods." She said to no one but herself, pulling what little gear she had over her shoulder.

"Thank you for the gifts, Almond. I'll put them to good use. And Xaron, would you like a goodbye hug? I'm sure you couldn't live without it."

[SlayerOfLight]

''Sure, go ahead by all means.'' said Xaron.

''Hmph, stupid loremaster.'' thought eon as he turned away and crossed his arms.

''Oh and Xandra, be a good girl okay? Then maybe during my next visit you'll get a nice bone or chew toy from dear uncle Xaron.'' said Xaron as he patted Xandra's head and wolfy ears.

[ScarsLove]

Xandra stood complacently, waiting for Xaron to get done making a fool out of her. 'Chew toy? Nice bone? Elf, I will make you my chew toy and eat your bones. Just you wait, dumb elf.'

Once he was finished, Tali came over and gave him another joking bear hug and a pat on the head. "We'll be seeing you."

Called Tali, waving goodbye as she made her way out of Almond's Dwelling, "C'mon Eon. Didn't your mother ever tell you if you keep scowling like that your face will freeze?

[SlayerOfLight]

''We'll be seeing each other again very soon child. Oh damn, I was supposed to meet the other loremasters at Arang Nolsur. I gotta go now, bye!'' said Xaron as he teleported away.

''No she did not.'' he responded sarcastically. Let's get going.''

Before they could leave, they were halted by Almond however.

''Sorry to slow you three down, but I forgot to mention something.'' he said.
