The wolves seem agitated and are pulling at their chains trying to get to you. They're loud but noise in the cave appears to be drowned out by the sound of running water.
The cave is dark. There is no light source. Anyone without Darkvision will need light. I think Malakadin is the only one without Darkvision.

I have darkvision. Handle animal check to calm the wolves 8
Ramón walks up to the closest wolf, just outside where it can reach. "Nice doggie" he says with a confident smile. "We don't mean you any har-" he was cut off by the wolf snapping at his hand, which he wrenched back. Shrugging at the rest of the group, he falls back to his position.
Seeing noone respond by pulling out some meat Sol reaches into his pack to pull out some of his trail rations looking for the dried meats specifically and tosses a small piece to each of the wolves. "It's OK puppies, we don't mean you any harm!"
The wolves start to calm at the sound of Grol's voice. And within a few seconds have completely settled. Going back to their various corners and spaces along the carved cave walls.
While the other tended to the wolves Malakadin began searching through his pack for a light source, he found only a candle. He looked up in the dark, "Forgive my woeful unpreparedness please, I have no torch to see in the dark of this cave. I'd be happy to bear it, if someone happens to be carrying one."
"Thank you Grol, I hate to be of further burden but can anyone produce fire to light one of these for me? I have no flint, and no magic to do so", the feeling of complete helplessness humbles Malakadin but he is sure that he will be of use later when enemies are upon them.
"I'll do you one better! Let Amauntor guide your way." As Sol walks over to Malakadin and touches his crystal to the tip of the torch and as a glow emanates from the crystal it gradually shifts over to the torch and light begins to emit from the tip of the torch as Sol casts Light.
Malakadin touches the tip of the torch and feels it's still cool presence, he waves it about a bit and see's it's light doesn't falter. "Most impressive master Sol, most impressive indeed"

Seeing the wolves seemed to have calmed down Sol will approach just far enough away from the closest wolf that he can't be reached and look around the room and see if there is anything important to note.

"Does it seem strange to leave the wolves unattended at the entrance to anyone else?"
“Perhaps between the ambush at the crossroads and those in the field we’ve caught them off-guard? There seems to be more cave ahead. Shall we proceed?”
At the back of the cave is a pile of trash; bones, scraps of paper, clothes. It appears to have been discarded through a natural chimney from a room above.

Eldon has darkvision as a gnome.

The wolves seem more agitated and leap out at Sol.
Strength Check 3
The rod holding the chains bends and looks loosened from it's anchors in the stone wall.
“These poor creatures have been tainted by those wretched goblins. I will also try to sooth them rather than end their lives.”
Grol carefully walks over to the wolves. “I will kill you with honor, forrest souls, should you attack my pack. Find peace within yourselves.”
Animal Handling Check: 17

“No worries, Malakadin, I have several.”
Grol reaches into his pack and hands him 5 torches.
”That should do the trick!” Grol says with a grin. Having been able to save the forrest children has put Grol in a rather terrific mood.
"Thank you Grol, I hate to be of further burden but can anyone produce fire to light one of these for me? I have no flint, and no magic to do so", the feeling of complete helplessness humbles Malakadin but he is sure that he will be of use later when enemies are upon them.

Area 3 is where the wolves are.

Are the wolves considered friendly now? I do have beast bond so we could set up some telepathy.

Let's say they're not hostile. But yes, for the purposes of Beast Bond they're friendly.

At the back of the cave is a pile of trash; bones, scraps of paper, clothes. It appears to have been discarded through a natural chimney from a room above.
How wide is the chimney?
While the others search the cave Malakadin keeps a vigilant watch at the entrance to the cave.
