[That was all he needed though, as the Adventurer rounded about.] A moment's reprieve was all I needed. Thank you.

[Now with enough time on his hands, the Adventurer swung his axe in a cleaving blow, much like a man on horseback would swing a sword one handed. It knocked a wolf into the tree as he grinned a little.]

[At least with the wolves distracted on two fronts, it took little time for the Adventurer to finally orient himself, and start hewing through the ranks until there was one left. Sensing defeat, it turned in fled, it's pack decimated.]

Thank you. And... I apologize, it has been a most trying week. Pray, I did not mean for you to fight, only to distract.
