An Enchanting Tale

  Chapter Twenty-Five

Aela helped Farkas back to his feet when Durro butted his pommel over Vilkas’s head. The pain and impact sent the Harbinger reeling.

He rammed his plated shoulder into the nord, shoved past him, and swung his ebony sword at Aela. Deftly, she stepped back, nocked an arrow, and let it fly. It was the eleventh arrow to pierce armor.

  “Where is that dark elf?” Vilkas yelled, from a knee.
