Neverwinter Forest [m] She stays perfectly quiet

This treatment of the fox did not disturb the bounty hunter until it was released to live with its injuries. His head whipped 'round as it streaked past him, but he was unwilling to make any more sudden movements with the strange wolf so near. She'd noticed him — it would be difficult not to — but she didn't speak. This did not disturb him at first, but he found himself more and more uncomfortable with the fact as the seconds ticked by.

There was a protracted, uneasy moment before he decided she was not going to attack.

"Apologies," he said, though he did not look very apologetic. "I heard a commotion."

And now that it had ended, the night felt as black and as silent as death. He took a tiny step backwards, searching his mind for the right words to excuse himself.
