Ash covers his grief at Skye's departure by laughing loudly and leaping into the air and clicking his heels together.
Ash stares at Rhazor as though he's nuts,in fact he thought to himself there are so many nuts in this party I'm surprised we haven't been attacked by the Planter's Nuts Peanut Guy. He draws his sword anyway, even nuts can be right sometimes.The brush on either side crashes as wolves come in from both sides at them. Rhazor's scimitars blur into action slahing wolf throats.Ash's response is long sweeping cut that dismembers the three wolves that have rushed him. There is silence then ,only broken by the sound of thick ,hot,red blood dripping from swords. Suddenly two red-eyes blaze into existance before them and a creature steps out onto the path.
"A wolfwere",Rhazors mutters bringing his scimitars up to a guard position. Ash does likewise.
"I think it's a Greater Wolfwere myself,look at the spacing of the eyes."
"Nonsense,",Rhazor replies,"look at the ears."
"At the Radiant Heart College for Paladins we were always taught that you differentiate the species by the space between the eyes."
"I'm telling you it's all in the ears,smaller ears for the wolfwere,larger for the greater wolfwere."
"Well,if that's a wolfwere it's got the widest spaced eyes of any wolfwere I've ever seen. Let's ask Lord Raptor what he thinks." As Ash turns to ask Lord Raptor his opinion the creature loses patience and lets forth a blood chilling howl and leaps upon them. Rhazor's scimitars blur into action slicing away one of it's arms. Ash,satisfied that his ploy worked,swings the Holy Avenger around over his head too fast for eyes to follow. The end of the swing comes one inch above the ground. Both halves of the creature,split vertically fall to either side of the blade thrashing futilely.
"Let's see you regenerate from that! And I still say it was a greater Wolfwere."
