Khelek struggled to get from the Elf's firm grasp, snarling savagely and turning his fangs on him. And the fact that a Dwarf had drawn his battle axe was even less appeasing to him. Wolves did not love Dwarves - for burning their forests and for taking their homes in the mountains. Khelek growled some more, but the Elf's hands stayed firm on him. He finally stopped and stayed lying on his stomach. The Elf did not release his grip.
If you do not want me to summon great beasts on you, I suggest you let go, Khelek said mentally to the Elwood. Elwood gave a little start, but did not release his grip. Khelek looked up at Thenamir. Tell him to release me or I will summon other beasts more powerful than you can imagine. Thenamir studied the wolf.
