The Untouched Quest

Ep. 52. Wild Hunt part 8-11

Angrif is so eager to prove to his father he is the next Djun, so while all the Wolfriders go for a hunt Angrif sees his moment. He sneaks into Howling Rock and takes Scouter's troll sword to bring back home as a trophy. Back at home Gifa also wants to prove herself, she wants to be more than just a housewife, she also wants to go out and fight the elves who injured her dear father. To Angrif's surprise, the Djun is unhappy to see his stolen Troll sword. He knows the elves' power and will not go to war against them again. This is when Gifa sees her moment, she wants to infiltrate the Wolfriders like Shuna did and kill them from the inside. The Djun agrees. 
Sust wants to try to train Stubtail like a wolf. Stubtail will be Sust's wolf friend since Pool is mocking him for not having a wolf friend yet. The only problem is that the elves do not have the same bond with any other animal as they have with the wolves because of the wolf's blood. But Sust is trying hard, after a time of hard training Pike steps in. A wolf friend will come when he is ready for it, but he can not force it. 
Krim wants Yun to have a chieftess walk just like she had with Kahvi back with the Go Backs. Ember agrees to do it, and she has to protect the necklace she got from Teir. In a weak moment, Yun manages to get her hands on the necklace, but she feels it is not a happy victory since Ember is sad about losing something so precious to her. Yun resides to create a copy of the necklace so she can have a trophy for her chieftess walk and Ember can get the original Teir necklace back.

Ep. 51. Wild Hunt part 4-7

Drub and her trolls are helping Ember and the Wolfriders dig a tunnel into the monster's den. While everyone is working hard to get to the monster before Pike is sacrificed, Flam is busy with his project. He has been working on his own invention, maybe inspired by Two Edge. Flams machine will empty the water out of the cave, to make it easier and faster for the elves to attack the monster from behind. 
Meanwhile, Pike and the old hag are set to public dispute, fruits and vegetables are thrown at them, and by the end of the day, they are taken to the Redeemer to seal their fate. Inside the cave, the Wolfriders attack the Redeemer from behind to force it out of its den, while the trolls wait on the outside to attack as soon as the Redeemer escapes the cave. Trolls and elves together as a team manage to kill the Redeemer and save Pike's life, while the humans are watching it all. 
Teir resides to show up and claim his spot in the tribe as a Wolfrider, but this creates some tension in the group. A lot of jealousy is building up while finding their way back to Howling Rock.
Among the humans, we see Djun and his two offspring, one son and one daughter. The Djun is revengeful he wants to regain the power he once had, to become bigger again he sends his son, Angrif off to find him more land to rule over. In the end, Angrif stumbles over the Wolfriders while they are out hunting and we can see the joy in his eyes while finding the elves he has heard so many stories of.

Ep. 50. Wild Hunt part 0-3

It has been many years since the war in the Citadel and the return of the palace. Ember and her tribe are now hunting down and killing what's left of Winnowill's monsters. After Winnowills death and the monster battle at Howlingrock, there are still a lot of monsters wandering around. Among the humans, we can hear many different stories told about the elves, like stories from the citadel war, that they take your soul if you look them in the eyes and the old tale about the elves being demons.
A young boy has to face the redeemer, one of Winnowills monsters after looking Sust (Pike's son) in the eyes. The redeemer is one of Winnowills monsters and it is the elf's job to kill it before it can kill more innocent humans and elves. When attaching the redember from the cave entrance it is only a small portion of the monster that comes out to protect itself. It is time to find a different way into the monster cave. 
Pike and Yun think gathering some dream berries from the dream berry bushes inside a human courtyard is more important than killing the monster. While trying to gather some dreamberries Pike manages to get caught and imprisoned together with a human hag, will they both get faced with the redeemer? Ember and the rest of her tribe had to hurry to find another way into the monster cave. Turns out they already know someone who can help them dig a tunnel to get into the monster cave. Flem has become the queen of a new troll kingdom, will they help the elves?

Ep. 49. Hidden Years 28 & 29

The sacrifice of Teir did not go as the Wolfriders thought. None of the monsters was interested in him, they all went after Dewshine and her wolf. Dewshine barely made it back to safety at Howling Rock, and Teir was taken by the monster leader and Winnowill's mind powers. The monster leader is using Teirs powers against the Wolfriders and all the monsters are now attacking Howling Rock. There is no safe space for the Wolfriders, they are outnumbered and can't fight off all the monsters. The only way to save everyone is for Leetah to kill the monster leader. When the monster leader dies, all the other monsters surrounding Howling Rock die too. 
When Leetah killed the monster leader Teirs mind was still connected to him and Winnowill. His mind is badly injured because of this. He needs healing, but Leetah is exhausted from all the healing she has already done and she needs some rest, Teir has to wait, after all his life is not in danger. When Ember tries to send to Teir his mind is silent, like in death. An elf's mind is never silent like this as long as they are alive. When Teir wakes up, Ember gives him the most impossible ultimatum. He can choose not to be healed and get his mind and powers back, but be able to stay with the Wolfriders. Or Leetah can heal him, but then he has to leave. 
Suddenly the palace appears in front of Howling Rock, the war is won and they are all reunited. Teir disappears into the darkness after gifting Ember his necklace.

But it turns out that he is the only one unharmed. Help is sought out and Leetah can heal them all, but where is Teir? No one has seen him in a while. Ember goes out alone to find him. Sadly Teir is not in his right mind, it seems he is possessed, Ember decides to invite him back to Howling Rock so Leetah can heal him. On their way back to Howling Rock, monsters attack them, and Ember is badly injured. 
Choplicker is sent to get Leetah for help, Ember is almost joining Skot and zhantee. When The healer arrives she is not happy to see her cub in the arms of Teir. He is pushed away, and Leetah heals Ember so they can ride back, but she won't believe that Teir saved Ember. Teir does not give up, he follows them back to Howling Rock. Safe and sound at Howling Rock Teir proves himself when he turns the monsters against each other, and the Wolfriders are finally approving of him.  Sadly this is short-lived. His mind is taken by Winnowill, to put him out of his agony Leetah puts him in a coma. And Teir is sacrificed to the monsters.

He means Teir is like Winnowill and wants to get rid of him, but Ember disagrees.

Ember doubts herself and her skills as Chief yet again. She wants to learn to fight with a troll sword, like her father did in the first war. It turns out it is not a skill for her body type and personality. But she refuses to give up, in her mind it is a chief weapon and she needs to do everything like her father. Some of the Wolfriders try to convince her to try different weapons, like a spear. Ember refuses to listen, but even the most stubborn chieftess has to admit defeat when a certain newcomer gifts her a spear. Turns out, a spare is Ember's kind of weapon when she saves Redlance from one of Winnowill's monsters.

When he is about to leave Timmain runs off to find Ember, she is eager for the two of them to go hunting together. After all, Ember is the one Wolfrider who trusts Teir. While out hunting Teir shows Ember his animal magic, how he can imitate them, feel them, and build trust with them. It is something new for Ember, but she realizes that Teir has so much to teach them. On their way back from the hunt they find Pike dancing and howling for Skot, who was one of Pike's lifemates.
