Two men of the frozen north walk into the Prancing Pony and look around the room glaring at everything. They take a seat pulling off their heavy coats and throwing them on the table.
"Why do the people of this town keep everything so warm," Urho asks.
"They are not familiar with the dangers of the snow and believe this is a cold day," Valtteri says.
"They are weak people to fear something as simple as the winter snow."
"Perhaps but at least they do not cower at the thought of wolves."
"The number of them was greater than you could have dealt with," Urho says.
"That may be true but I would still hold my head high and do my job."
"I think that we should all be greatful for the pink one eyed man for reducing their numbers. With the numbers they had they were a threat to our village. If they ever decided to attack we may have had trouble driving them away."
"We must remember to patrol the den they kept to keep another mother from raising such a great number," Valtteri says. "Our hunting should get better now that there are fewer of the wolves to compete with."
"I will sleep better knowing the large pack has scattered."
"I wonder if there are any other warriors as strong as the one that helped us. I nearly ran when the man turned himself into a bear in front of me."
"I didn't see him doing anything like that," Urho says.
"When I asked him to show his skill by fighting one of the Surmaja we had captured he transformed and broke the creature's back. It was among the most frightening demonstrations of power I have ever seen."
"That is a remarkable talent. I wonder how they came across it."
"He told me that he was born with the ability," Valtteri says. "It was passed down through his blood after it was taught to him by one of the magic users of the Valar."
"That is a remarkable gift."
"His family spends their time fighting the goblins that live under the mountains near their home. I do not know what he is doing in our lands but I think it might have to do with the wargs roaming our lands."
"They are far worse than any wild animal," Urho says. "They have the ability to plan and follow the dark forces of Angmar."
"Their numbers were greatly reduced by our shape changing friend. He gathered the fat we needed to create a weapon to weaken the leader of the wargs. He even fought his way through the den hidden in the hills to confront the behemoth."
"That is an impressive feat."
"I do not know how many wargs lay dead in their den but we need not fear them as much as we needed to before," Valtteri says.
"I had heard that he defeated the one named Blokk. I didn't know how they could have but if they can change it makes sense. We should explain to Mirja how they were capable of killing the beast as she doesn't believe they were capable of it."
"When we return I will explain it to her."
