Long shadows creep across the flagstones as the heavy door grinds open. Three hooded figures slip into the dimness, steel catching the faint light. "It's time to die, dog," one spits. Farkas, pressed against the cold stone wall, knows the numbers are against him. A low, visceral growl builds in his chest before his body tears itself apart—muscles writhe, bones snap, and coarse fur erupts from his skin as he becomes a massive wolf. The chamber fills with snarls, the wet sounds of conflict, and then silence. Moments later, the beast recedes, leaving the Nord panting on his knees. He rises slowly, finds the key, and turns it in the lock. The door swings open. "I hope I didn't scare you," he says, his voice rough but gentle.
