Harry Potter The College of Winterhold chapter 3
A Week later a Courier arrived at the College carrying a reply from the Companions.
'Archmage we are interested in meeting your friend from another dimension when all of our brothers are back from Their hunts we will Set out for your college, We should be with you in no more than a week.
Aela'
The Archmage relayed the information to The three other worldly wizards, Remus Paled at the mentioned group of werewolf warriors.
"Remus remember you've dealt with packs before from what The People here have told me these companions are A remarkable group, you'll be okay"
Harry continued to train under the tutelage of Tolfdir the old wizard having a spring in his step at such a young student, Harry's skills continued to improve in leaps and bounds
The day arrived that the Companions were due and as firstlight arrived faralda escorted the group up the path into the quad
Where the remaining staff stood waiting Archmage Alexandre stood in the middle his Mask in place, Harry Sirius and Remus stood Behind The imposing Battlemage
A Well proportioned woman with Battle Armour on and War pain on her face Led a group of similarly armoured men Into the central Quad
The woman Bent in greeting
"Archmage Thank you for Contacting us, We were intrigued at the letter, tell me how did you come to meet this Lycanthrope from another dimension?"
"Alexandre's expression was hard to identify behind his mask His voice sounded uninhibited by the mask "A story for another time Harbinger Aela, I was sorry to hear of Kodlak he was a good man"
Harry looked to Tolfdir who whispered
"her former Leader he was killed by the Black Hand a terrible bandit group who focus on killing werewolves"
Aela noticed this exchange and Approached
" you must be the other dimensional users it is a pleasure to meet you I am harbinger Aela the huntress which of you has the blessing of Hircine?"
"hircine?" Sirius asked
" Hircine the Daedric prince of the hunt, who was the creator of the lycanthropy blessing"
Remus looked horrified "blessing? it's been nothing but a curse for me"
A large man joined Aela Hearing this "Curse how Dare you…"
" Farkas enough this man is from a different dimension remember what I told you. from what the arch mage told me your dimension doesn't treat people with the blessing of Hircine very well is that correct" Aela replied silencing the man called Farkas
"Werewolves are treated as dark creatures as we are unable to control our transformation as it is entirely controlled by the full moon" Remus replied
Aela chuckled slightly "I can understand that, Things are different here in the most part, some people do not welcome our kind but we treat our abilities as a blessing, the archmage has permission to offer you training with us to control and use the inner strength of your inner beast"
Remus looked towards Harry and Sirius the young Mage nodding And The Marauder Speaking "I won't tell you what to do, Remus this is your decision to make understand that Harry I will support whatever decision you make"
Remus turned to the Group and nodded
"Thank you for your offer i will come with you and train with you"
Aela nodded a smile on her painted face
"Companions Positions"
The group Lined up keeping Remus in the middle for his protection
"We'll see you soon Moony" Sirius said as the companions left the college making their way along the path back towards Winterhold.
"He'll be okay i hope" Sirius asked the Archmage
" Nobody in Skyrim Knows lycanthropy like the Companions if anybody could help your friend learn how to control his inner animal it is them I have no doubts" the masked Mage replied.
The next few days went by as The Mages Continued the training with the two wizards
Harry took to the new Magic incredibly well besting J'Zargo in a duel Towards the end of the week
Early one morning As Harry and Sirius Rested
An explosion was heard followed by a large amount of footsteps
Quick as they could they both got up and Approached the doorway Tolfdir came in
"Stay in here The imperial soldiers are raiding the college again I'll ward this door until…"
"No" Harry interrupted If the college is in danger We want to help defend it"
"The Archmage said you might say that Stay Together and Join J'Zargo on the roof of this building he's Using Conjuration to Distract their forces they usually go away after a while
Harry and Sirius climbed the stairs to the door and Opened it.
J'Zargo was stood to one edge leaning over A flash of light Burst from his hand and An 8 foot tall Ice man Appeared Waddling over to a group of Soldiers And punching them out of the way the Khajiit turned a Smirk on his face "Ah yes Young Mage, J'Zargo is enjoying himself this morning Imperial Soldiers Are good target practice And test subjects for J'Zargo's Experimental Spells".
The Khajiit Pulled a scroll from his robes and Unfurling it held it over the edge Green Light shot from it and fiver soldiers Dropped to the ground frozen in place The ice creature treading on them.
"Take these young Mage they are J'Zargo's Mass Paralysis Scrolls, Old Mage, Take this Staff J'Zargo created it himself It casts Fire Bolts"
Sirius took the Staff And pointed it forward
Stepping back as a Sizable Ball of Fire erupted from the end blasting some soldiers back.
After about an Hour of Knocking back or outright killing imperial soldiers They stopped coming
"All College Mages Report to the Hall of The Elements"
"Ah the Archmage wishes to speak to us J'Zargo hopes none of us have fallen" the Khajiit Mage said casually
"Do people get killed here often?" Sirius Asked
"During Imperial Raids?, Sometimes The Archmage Is a Seasoned Battlemage and there are many Pure Mages Every battle can have consequences , Come J'Zargo will escort you to the Hall of The Elements"
