The brown wolf stands in awe. Tyrion spits out the blood of the black wolf and walks towards the brown wolf. The brown wolf steps in the opposite direction. He uses what little energy he has left to prepare himself for his final battle. " Do you expect me to beg ? " asks the brown wolf. Tyrion smiles " If you did you would reveal that I made a miscalculation of your character and thus I would have no reason to keep you alive". The brown wolf is confused. " What are you talking about" ? asks the brown wolf. Tyrion elaborates "I was watching you when you took down the bear, your an excellent killer.". Tyrion continues "I might have use for someone like you". The brown wolf snarls in disapproval. "I'm nobodies b**ch" says the brown wolf. Tyrion chuckles " I dont want you to be my b**ch, i want you to join my cause". The brown wolf responds "You kill my friend and you expect me to help you ?". Tyrion ignores the brown wolfs inquiry and moves closer to him. "Whats your name ?" asks Tyrion. "I'm JOGGLER of the Shadow Law pack" says the brown wolf. " Shadow Law ? " Tyrion responses in disbelief. " I wasn't aware that a pack of that name existed , I mean i've heard of a pack called Silvertip Mountian but I've avoided them by staying in the free territories". Joggler responses "It makes sense that you have'nt heard of us, we were a convert pack or essentially mercenaries hired by larger packs to gather supplies and execute wetwork". Joggler looks up at a object attached to the tree. "That was our crest up there." Tyrion looks up and sees a sign which appears to be a bears head with two swords crossing behind it. Tyrion asks " There were only two of you fighting the bear and there's no one at your base of operations under the tree , what happen to the rest of your pack ?''. Jogglers facial expression was soon consumed by sadness. " Our leader abandoned us......." says Joggler. He continues " We just called him THE BOSS and he was literally the most proud and merciless wolf I had ever met". Tyrion responses "Merciless ? , how merciless ?, please explain". " Our former pack Shadow Law was mostly made up of orphans and strays but thanks to The Boss we became ruthless assassins". says Joggler. " We were mostly given the task of clearing the territory for other packs by killing rival predators" Joggler explains. " Yes , yes, thats all well and good but you referred to this Boss wolf as merciless, why did you say that ? " asks Tyrion. He had to know why a wolf as sinister as Joggler , who practically eliminated a animal four times his size by himself, would see another wolf as more dangerous they he was. It takes Joggler a while to explain himself but with his life on the line he got over his hesitations and exposed a dark truth. "In order to join Shadow Law you had to.......... kill a human." said Joggler. It was unbelievable, this whole time Tyrion thought he was some kind of tough guy but he was a cowardly little pup compared to The Boss. He didn't now or probably never would have the courage to kill a human. Ironically thats exactly the courage he needed to avenge Ghani Hassan. " The first human I killed was a circus joggler so thats how i got my name" says Joggler. " I personally killed 7 humans myself while in the pack but The Boss killed 24" he continues. Tyrions inferiority in the presence of this superior wolf and his even more superior boss finally reaches a boiling point and he exclaims "So if this "Boss" wolf is so strong and legendary why did he abandon you !!!"?. Joggler responses "I dont know, but when he left our pack broke off into factions and a majority of them were killed by larger packs". "Me and the black wolf you killed named Yajurobi were the only ones who remained still loyal to The Boss." Joggler continues. Tyrion saw his play and he went for it. "Ok Joggler , I've made a decision, in exchange for helping me i will both give you your life and help you rebuild your pack" says Tyrion. " Rebuild my pack , how ?" asks Joggler. " The detials of how I do this are'nt important now, what is important is what i need you to do" says Tyrion. He continues " I require you to do 5 things, first hunt and kill a lot of 10 fish ounce a week and bring it to this camp site in the Neverwinter forest, second to increase your fighting skills in the sparing pits,third to scout all the free terrotories in the Great Bear Wilderness and gather intel, fourth to accompany me on high risk missions regardless of the amount of danger, and fifth , which is the most crucial to remember, what ever friends or alliances you make along this journey your allegiance is to me first". Joggler couldn't comprehend why Tyrion would believed that he was capable of honoring such a large request but decides to hide his doubts behind blunt obedience. "Understood" said Joggler. "Great you can begin by setting up camp at the White Fish River." said Tyrion. Joggler turns around and heads for his destination. Before he bursts into a full blown sprint he turns back to Tyrion and says "Thanks for not killing me". Tyrion smiles and watches joggler disappear over the horizon.
