As Ben casts his spell, Graeme is momentarily encased in a light you almost swear could've been sunlight. Despite seeing the sun not many days ago, the dazzling light harkens back to what seems like forever ago. Graeme rouses the wolfman who comes back to consciousness slowly. It's eyes unfocused for a moment, until they narrow and come to violent life. The beast struggles for a moment, just then learning it's been securely bound.
He leans his head back, exposing his throat, growling out, "You should just kill me. Death would be but a sweet release from this torturous existence, and I have naught to say to you."
“Aye, it would indeed.” Graeme says in a rather flat tone.
”I’ll consider killin’ ye if ye tell me - why off the wee lass? I’d guess it havin’ something to do with her da an’ your... condition?” Graeme is now crouched to the side of the beast.
Ben peers around from behind almost like a child hiding behind a mothers skirt, wide eyed at the wolf man when it begins to speak and his breath quick and shallow.
His voice as if gravel, he laughs lightly, "Why does anyone do anything? Why not do as I and find out?" His eyes go from person to person before he continues, "Devils, feline folk, you lot could use it. Isn't there something you've always wanted but were cheated of, deep in your truest heart of hearts? Something lurking just out of sight."

Allen would like to make a insight check to determine what the wolfman is saying.

Graeme, Arabella shakes her head enough so that her long locks dance about, "I'm destined for greatness, and I am a rather important daughter." She flips up her hair haughtily with a smug smirk.
Allen, you gather this wolfman was offering this child up for something he desired. Based on his actions and general demeanor, it seems he believes what he says and that perhaps if you did the same would receive something desired.
Arabelle harrumphs, "As I said, I'm the sole daughter to the Luvash the Lash. He's very powerful, and he would love to have me back. Put the dog down and return me to my father. Those afflicted are beasts, deserving to be exterminated. Return me safely, and my father will reward you heavily." Crossing her arms expectantly, she strikes a demanding disposition.
”Right then.” Graeme says with a huff, and rolling the wolf slightly to his side, he cuts the rope binding the wolf with the fillet knife he acquired from the wolf.
”There! Now ya got 3 options. You can take off and we’ll all go about our business. You can stay and we can talk about your situation without all the shite. Or, you can have another go at the lass there and you’ll be dead before you lay fingers on her.”
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"I say we put him out of his misery..."Rumble growls. "It is merely a beast. Unrefined and a brute. Likley has a pack which will hunt us down if we allow him to escape with our scent." He flourishes his spear. If there isn't any objection, he will strike the neck. Attack: 15 Damage: 8
Ben, the name doesn't sound too familiar, but the name itself doesn't particularly sound kind-hearted.
The wolfman stares at each of the assembled, unblinking, and states, "We're all better off dead. Men are beasts. Beasts are a curse and a curse a shackle. They infest this land, and you each will be one of 'em soon."
He looks off in the direction of Vallaki and then to Rumble with a grumbling laugh. "This town is finished, and so am I. I have none to forsake me for all is long lost." With a deeper look into the Tabaxi's eyes, "Just do it. Set me free."
Ireena puts a hand on Arabella, turning her from the scene, and Ismark covers each of them from direct view.
*plunges spear into throat* "That grew tiresome. Let's get this lass back to her father. Surely he can give us more useful information about these lands than this waste of time." Rumble says, flatly.
The wolfman chokes out a guffaw, "Heh, she's special, but there's only one way t-..." Getting cut short with a deft thrust of Rumble's spear, the wolfman's eyes grow wide in surprise. A flash of fear spreads over the beast's face, then quickly becoming a toothy grin. As Rumble pulls back, the wolfman falls to the ground dead. As a pool of crimson floods the ground around the figure, the bestial form slowly begins to fall away to reveal a middle-aged man with a wild looking beard and unkempt hair.
Ben turns to look at the young lady with concern, one way or another. he is unsure how to feel.
He spoke of sacrifice. Bloodshed to appease the dark ones that i was raised to fight against. Id hate to see your soul lost to an eternity of torment. Surely you are a good person? Surely the wicked dont cast off their own to the ones they serve. But to whom would he follow? What power did he desire,
He continues talk like this but more under his breath, asking names of the fallen gods, all while flipping a silver coin in his fingers, as his eyes drift downwards and to the body of the wolfman.

“I am curious but we shouldn’t take long. We still have to get Ireena to the village and drop off miss Arabella...”
Allen will rest while they interrogate the wolf man. He focus on the surrounding and help Ismark cleaning up the site.
Felix Windfall(Human-V Lv.7 Rogue) killed in ToA, Vallan Houndstrider (Halfling Ghostwise Lv.1 Fighter) in DiARumble also looks on, ready ing a non-lethal strike if it looks like any signs of aggression.

“Well... “ Graeme pauses as he stares at the creature.
”... tha’ was cheerful.”
Graeme turns to the young woman they just saved...
”Ye know wha’ this mad bugger is talking about?”

Felix Windfall(Human-V Lv.7 Rogue) killed in ToA, Vallan Houndstrider (Halfling Ghostwise Lv.1 Fighter) in DiAGraeme, Arabella shakes her head enough so that her long locks dance about, "I'm destined for greatness, and I am a rather important daughter." She flips up her hair haughtily with a smug smirk.
Allen, you gather this wolfman was offering this child up for something he desired. Based on his actions and general demeanor, it seems he believes what he says and that perhaps if you did the same would receive something desired.
Pinching his eyes together, Graeme responds to Isabella...
”And... why... are you an important daughter?”
Arabelle harrumphs, "As I said, I'm the sole daughter to the Luvash the Lash. He's very powerful, and he would love to have me back. Put the dog down and return me to my father. Those afflicted are beasts, deserving to be exterminated. Return me safely, and my father will reward you heavily." Crossing her arms expectantly, she strikes a demanding disposition.
(History check to recall anything of Luvash the Lash, 22 )
Graeme’s face is blank at Arabelle’s response.
”Right then.” Graeme says with a huff, and rolling the wolf slightly to his side, he cuts the rope binding the wolf with the fillet knife he acquired from the wolf.
”There! Now ya got 3 options. You can take off and we’ll all go about our business. You can stay and we can talk about your situation without all the shite. Or, you can have another go at the lass there and you’ll be dead before you lay fingers on her.”

"CoS" Rumble- Tabaxi Shadow Monk
“Easy, brother.” Graeme says to Rumble in a calming voice.
”But be ready.” Graeme continued out of the side of his mouth at a volume only Rumble could hear.
Returning to the beast, Graeme says,
”So.... what’ll it be, eh?”
Ben, the name doesn't sound too familiar, but the name itself doesn't particularly sound kind-hearted.
The wolfman stares at each of the assembled, unblinking, and states, "We're all better off dead. Men are beasts. Beasts are a curse and a curse a shackle. They infest this land, and you each will be one of 'em soon."

Ireena puts a hand on Arabella, turning her from the scene, and Ismark covers each of them from direct view.
“Hang on... “ Graeme says, with his attention turned to the wolf...
“Can we get a wish granted regardless of who we throw in the lake? Or is that jus’ fer spoiled brats?”
*plunges spear into throat*
"That grew tiresome. Let's get this lass back to her father. Surely he can give us more useful information about these lands than this waste of time." Rumble says, flatly.

Ben stands, startled by the unexpected violence.
Oh my, yes. You may be right.
Ben turns to look at the young lady with concern, one way or another. he is unsure how to feel.
