Protectors of Pandora

Chapter 6 ~A very civilized meeting~

The direwolves were so close to Ron now that he could feel their breath in his feathers, he was terrified, and just as the alpha wolf was opening its jaws they heard; “HEY! HERE PUPPIES.” The wolves all turned to look and they saw Ping, with a flipper full of saber-tooth salmon. “Want some Feesh doggies?!!” He said. All four wolves immediately sat down, tails wagging and tongues sticking out. “whattt—” Ron said. Ping tossed the fish on the ground and the wolves ate very appreciatively, “thank you good sir, we where famished.” The alpha said. “Wait you can talk?” Ron said. “Well of course we can talk, what do you think we are a bunch of savages?” The alpha wolf said. “Well.. kinda, you were about to eat me..” Ron. “Well- a packs gotta eat you know it’s hard living out here.. -uhh sorry where are my manners I am, sir Charles tundra the third, and this is, Alfred, Evelyn and George. And you are?” Sir Charles said. “I’m Ping!” Ping said. “Uh Ron.” Ron said. “Well Master Ping and Ronald thanks again for the meal, now where are you two travelers heading?” “It’s a long story, do you guys have anywhere we could wait out this blizzard?” Ron said. “Of course, our cave is just over there.” Sir Charles said, pointing to the north.

The wolves led the two birds through the blizzard and up the side of a mountain, until they reached a small cave entrance, it was just big enough for the wolves to get through but not much bigger. The inside was just four rock walls and a torch to the right. “This is.. nice.” Ron said. “Oh no no nonono this is just the entrance.” Sir Charles said. He pawed the torch down, and one of the walls retracted, revealing a beautiful dark wood door, two of the wolves opened the double doors and Ron’s jaw dropped at the sight of the room, it was lit with both candles and torches, the far wall and the wall to the left were bookshelves, and the right wall was pushed out a bit like a large cubby and in this “room” were large dog beds and comfy chairs, in the center of the room was a large gold studded table with 12 very fancy chairs, the ceiling was about 15 feet high (about 5 meters) it had a mural of the sky with gold human figures painted on it, along with different creatures and the obelisks. And there was a huge glorious chandelier. “Welcome to our cave.” Sir Charles said.
