The Angry One
Vermarae breathed in the prey scent through nose, and let it out through his mouth, in a billowing cloud of steam. The prey scent, a mix of men and elves, was strong. Stronger than it had been back at the embassy. He was on their trail, but the exact location..."SILENCE! SILENCE I SAY."An elven voice bellowed.The hunters' ears twitched forwards, locking onto the voice, and more importantly, the location of the prey. Scooping his ebony ax out of the snow at his bent knee, and straightened to his rather impressive height.
He hoped that there would be prey worth hunting among the prisoners. His last prey had been a Nord hunter in the wilderness near Solitude, who hadn't even fought back before fleeing into the forest. His yells for help and thudding footfalls had lead Vermarae straight to the man. And then the man had been dead, after the Khajiit had wrung every ounce of fear and pain he could out of the furless weakling. Now he was bored again, and, as luck would have it, one of the prison caravans was heading out from the elven embassy just as he'd arrived.
Now he could see the wagon clearly, along with the elf guards. He decided to not just ask for the prisoners. Instead, he'd offer his services to the elven officer on the wagon, beside the driver. His impressive resume was represented by the dozens of different coloured foot long skin strips hanging from his belt. If the elf refused well...these wouldn't be the first elves he'd killed. Breaking into a soft jog, he easily caught up to the wagon, and stepped in front of the horses, holding out a black furred hand, encouraging the horses to stop. Once they did so, he walked around them to the leader of the elves. "This one offers his services for your expedition.This will be the deal. You let this one join you, and he defends your...cargo" he nodded to the wagon, " If you refuse..." the Khajiit hunter chuckled, a low, menacing, sound deep in his throat. "You will become this ones' prey"
