chapter ten
While Lianya placed her sword onto her back Myra investigated the other body and was surprised to see a gorgeous gold diamond necklace, and a gold diamond ring smiling to herself she nodded and went back to the group making a mental note to have Asadelf enchant them for her later. Myra got up nodding to the rest of the group as they headed back towards the entrance moving past the corpses of the dead frostbite spiders. Upon exiting the cave Gila's ears immediately perked and she started looking around which immediately caught the group's attention before Gila took off running toward the steamy hot springs. The group struggled to keep up with Gila because she had the speed and agility mainly because of her lycanthropy. Jumping over boulders and Diving under branches they finally caught up to her as she was nursing a wolf pup who appeared to have had a broken leg caught in a bear trap and letting out pained whimpers. " Sh Sh Sh, it's alright little one I've got you now..." Gila softly cooed to the wolf pup who whimpered and yipped in pain in response. Gila knew that there was no way she was going to leave this little puppy alone picked it up into her arms and let it snuggle into the savior's hide cuirass as she lightly carried it in her arms before examining the bear trap sure enough a low deep growl escaped her throat. " Those milk-drinking fuckers at falders tooth, I'm going to rip their heads off, hang them by theyre guts, and eat every one of their hearts!" Gila roared in fury as Lianya nudged Ebon-shi to get his attention, the dark elf noticing that their new teammate wanted to talk he turned his head to her so they could speak. " Yes, what is it Lianya?" Ebon-shi asked. " What's with Gila? I've never seen her so angry in the little time I've known you guys." Lianya said as she looked to him for an explanation. " You see, from what Gila has told us of her childhood she grew up under the green pact. and that basically means you never kill unnecessarily and when you do kill an animal you waste nothing, you tan the hide you eat all the meat you drink the blood and you make their bones into arrows at least that's what I gathered from her explanation." Ebon-shi explained " However she is very kind towards animals and she has no tolerance for abuse or neglect so if she finds an animal who is in pain and suffering she will nurse it back to health if she isn't going to eat it. But from what she said about those bandits that occupy falders tooth west of Riften" Ebon-shi began before Gila cut in with a pissed-off tone in her voice "They cage fight wolves and they only use their pelts and their meat, they waste everything else. Plus the fact that they do it for sport pisses me off even more!" Gila growled as she sat on a rock and lightly petted the puppy's head as Ebon-shi walked over and placed a gentle hand on Gilas shoulder and nodded to try and calm her down. " Since we are back in the rift hold, how about we go pay those bandits a visit and make them pay for what they did to this little pup?" Ebon-shi suggested to Gila as she looked up wide eyed for a moment before a vicious smile appeared across her face as a reply. " Hey boss, there's a personal situation I have the deal with next time we enter Falkreath hold, Would it be all right if I took a break from the group for about a day?" Shadow-step asked speaking softly. " Absolutely my friend, If it's something personal then I won't pry into what it is, If I recall there's a small mining settlement nearby here we can go there and look for a job that takes place in Falkreath hold, and then when we head over there you can do your thing and we can meet up at the abandoned Falkreath watchtower, or somewhere better." Ebon-shi said as Shadow-step nods. Gila looked up and nodded in agreement along with the rest of the group as Gila pulled out her makeshift telescope to scout out where the small mining camp was. " The mining camp is approximately south of us, about a five-minute walk." Gila said holding the pup close. After a five-minute ride on the horses, the group came to the mining camp which much to Gila's irritation was being attacked by trolls. Carefully handing the injured wolf pup over to Sabrina, Gila pulled her steel warhammer off of her back which was called Trollsbane. Letting out a roar of fury she charged head first in and began to clobber the three normal trolls and the single frost troll. " Take this you ugly three-eyed freaks of nature!" Gila yelled as she busted one of the troll's skulls in before jumping onto another one and bludgeoning it with the sharp pointed end of the hammer into the side of the temple of the skull pulling the bloody hammer from its resting place she dived at the singular frost troll and the remaining normal troll the frost troll seeming to be the leader as Gila gave a feral sneer before cracking her neck. "C'mon then, you want fresh meat, don't you? Then come and get it!" The regular troll pushed the frost troll out of the way as it charged on all fours and lunged only to be met by a brutal upward swing from the two-handed warhammer the sharp spike going up through the thin film of the flesh of its mouth in the tip going into the brain before she brutally spartan kicked it to the ground putting her foot down on its corpse before stomping on it skull eyeing the frost troll with a sadistic grin. " Saved the best for last huh?~" Gila cooed as the troll started growling and slapping the ground as a futile way of showing dominance Gila was not buying it and let out a yell of her own before charging the frost troll head-on pulling out her glass bow of the stag prince she loosed three bone arrows into its center chest and one into its knee in quick succession before holstering the bow back on her back and pulling the rueful axe off of her back before sliding underneath the troll slitting its femoral artery on her way through before getting to her feet before charging the troll from behind jumping onto its back and decapitating it letting its limp headless body kneel on the ground as blood showered from its open wound. Gila wasted no time gutting and skinning the bodies for the next twenty minutes taking the hides off of the trolls and giving the meat to the mining camp after eating the hearts. The miners were at first confused why she gave them the troll's meat before she explained that the troll's flesh is very nutritious and that the fat is perfect for the body and the meat was very sweet without a gamey aftertaste especially when cooked with salt and leeks. Taking a deep breath she went back to the group with a contented smile now that she got to vent a little of her aggression she carefully took the puppy from Sabrina as she pointed Southeast towards falders tooth. During their time at the mining camp that was called Dark Water Crossing they found a couple of jobs that took place in Falkreath clearing out a bandit outpost coincidentally at the ruins of Helgen, and another bandit lair west of Falkreath. After a couple of hours, Gila froze upon hearing a pained howl and instantly jumped off of her horse and charged towards the sound the group rushing to keep up with her, after a few minutes of running they managed to catch up to her who was eyeing a small clearing with a steel cage with a singular wolf in there. Gila creeps over and lets the wolf out as the wolf exits the cage Gila tackles the wolf out of the way as an arrow hits where they were. " Guys you're all free to loot these fuckers when I kill them, don't interfere, these bastards are going to have a real hunt!" Gila yelled as her voice deepened Ebon-shi nodded understanding Gila's position. As the bandits came around the corner they were met by Gila's piercing golden eyes along with a feral snarl.
She let out a spine-chilling howl as she shifted into her werewolf form now eyeing the bandits with a feral hunger then charging headlong at them followed by the wolf grabbing the bandit who had shot the arrow before slapping his head clean off of his shoulders as she lunged to the other one before grabbing him by the throat digging her claws into his jugular and literally tearing his throat out and jumping over the wall the sounds of ear piercing screams of fear and agony echoed over the wall as the group quickly looted the two that were outside and rushed in after their comrade. The gray stone ground of the ruined fortress was stained red from the river of blood of Gila's massacre at the top of the far tower she could be seen tearing a man in half at the waist and then flinging him down to the ground as she ripped the door off of the hinges and charged into the ruin the wolf following close behind. Upon entering they saw the cages where the wolves were kept were ripped clean off of the steel hinges and Gila was followed by a pack of starved and angry wolves who were wasting no time tearing into the bandits who were using them for their amusement. Making their way through the ruin killing any bandit that was unfortunate enough to cross their paths they made it into the betting arena the wolves immediately dug their teeth into the gambling bandits while Gila and her brute strength ripped the door clean off of the arena letting the ice wolf and the other wolf out letting out a fierce roar as she ripped the door off of the gambling spot that was completely caged in as the wolves pounced and tore into the dealer's flesh. While the group looted the bodies as the wolves continued following Gila out she ripped the door off of the hinges before going up to the main tower where the bandit boss was waiting. " So you're the one who was killing my wolves-" The bandit chief started before turning pale seeing the lycanthrope in front of him quickly pulling out a silver greatsword as the pack of wolves followed behind and surrounded him, Before the bandit chief could even react the wolves all lunged at him and started tearing him apart and mauling him. As the group got up to the main tower they were met by the Gory site of the Wolves tearing the bandit chief into pieces and eating him Gila eating the heart as they appeared to be operating with a pack mentality, the second the wolves noticed them they got ready to attack but were stopped by a firm growl by Gila who immediately went back to eating the other wolves following suit obeying their alpha after looting the rest of the bodies the group reassembled at the top floor where Gila was currently playing and petting with all the wolves who persisted on following her around. Looking up at the group Gila turned back into her human form as the wolves started nuzzling as if she was their mother following down the ruined corridors of falders tooth the group proceeded to loot the bodies Salazar however had torn the arm from the bandit chief before they left the top tower to sustain himself lifting his shellbug helmet up and mounting it on the side of his backpack he started eating the arm while constantly getting begging eyes from the wolf pack. As if fate decided to give the big middle finger to him. One of the wolves as Salazar was laughing ran up behind him and snatched the arm out of his hand before running off with the rest of the pack following close behind. Salazar yelled in the ancient falmer tongue as the group laughed in amusement watching the wolves play keep away and running away from Salazar who was trying to catch them as if it was some sick game. After leaving the ruin and the wolves running off into the wild with full bellies and one of the females adopted the wolf pup and carried it by the scruff of the neck. Returning to the wild where they belong the group proceeded to make their way to where the group had their horses upon hopping onto their respective horses they started riding West towards Falkreath hold in order to get there they would have to go through the ruins of Helgen where the group first met each other so many years ago.
