As Rennai climbs through the tiny opening, Conri scrambles through after her. While he does not have the vision Rennai has in the dark, he can see well enough in the light from the hole to make the leap across the canal and rejoin her on the far side.
Conri aids in the search effort as well, using his nose to attempt to pick up a trace of the girl's scent.
Conri bays out a long howl and noses at his fallen foe until he hears Rennai's shout. Conri, if Kalla's all right get back in here! Riled up by his first victory, he rushes headlong from the room toward the larger foe, darting between Rennai and Auric.
Seeing the ghoul fall to the ground, Conri goes for its throat, attempting to finish it off.
Keep helping Kalla human hunt, keep helping Kalla human hunt... Conri bounds around to the ghoul's back, falling back on his pack hunting experience, but forgets caution, leaving himself vulnerable to attack.
At the swing of the hammer, Conri yelps in pain. Then, he hears Rennai's voice call out. Conri! Go help Kalla! She points toward the room where Kalla still tussles with the ghoul. The wolf whimpers, but bounds away from the skeleton to go aid the human girl.
Conri, help Kalla! Rennai points into the chamber. Like Kalla human girl! Conri dashes eagerly to obey Rennai's command. He bounds into the cell, taking a snap at the ghoul harassing Kalla.
Conri, help Auric! The wolf obeys, snapping and growling at the bones.
Conri whimpers against the back wall, cowering, until he hears a strange, high-pitched whistle echoing from behind one of the doors. He scrambles to his feet with ears cocked; Know that sound! Is girl from master's pack!. He bounds toward the door with a couple of affectionate barks, until a sharp word from Rennai diverts his attention. Conri! Flank! Wait! Can help master! he remembers gleefully, letting off one more friendly bark at the door and loping toward the skeleton. He takes position opposite Rennai and Auric, baring his teeth at the animated bones.
Conri sees his companion emerge from the side door and lets out a loud howl. Get scary bone monster, master!
Conri lets out a soft whimper. Where is master? Want master. She make bone thing go away.
Oh, he's still crying in the back. It's Auric making the save that's gonna save us, haha.
Right? It was NOT going to go well if both Auric and pup were out of commission.
As the skeleton gazes at Conri and Auric through sightless eyes, the unearthly laugh fills Conri with a sense of panic, magnified by his lack of understanding at its source. Fear! Foes! Danger! RUN! He lets out a loud yelp and bolts for the entrance of the chamber, cowering in front of it.
As the dark magic washes over him, Conri struggles against it, closing his eyes and baring his teeth in the darkness of the onslaught. As the magic begins to clear, he opens his eyes to see the skeletal creature in front of him, brandishing its hammer, with Auric next to it. Tall man thing is master's pack, he thinks. Will help. The wolf bounds forward and takes a snap at the armed skeleton.
