[QUOTE="Hairy Minotaur, post: 1261492, member: 11574"] Tharhack and Gothmog arrive at the river, and turn upstream. They follow the river until it takes a bend to the right, Tharhack decides it would be a good time to rest and get some information from the witch. Unwrapping the Raziel so that her eyes are visible, Tharhack sets her down in the snow. Still tied to the branch Raziel tries to wiggle free but is still unable to move. "Now, where is Xanoniel taking Alriand?" Tharhack asks The witch mumbles something from under her gag. "The gag stays, you have use of your eyes for the time being." Tharhack states while flexing his arms to make his point Gothmog watches Tharhack intently, seeing Tharhack threaten Raziel physical gives him an idea. He gets up and looking around, spots a rabbit sitting in the snow, about ten feet to his left. Gothmog then throws his arms up and then swings them back behind him while opening his mouth and letting out a low growl. The rabbit flees as does every other living creature within Gothmog's sight. Proud with himself, Gothmog goes over to Tharhack and pushes him away from the witch. "Gothmog try" Gothmog then repeats the same display he gave the rabbit on Raziel Raziel closes her eyes tight, sickened by Gothmog's breath, Raziel's eyes begin to tear up. "Now ask question" Gothmog tells Tharhack Tharhack stands stunned for a moment. Then moves back up to Raziel "Thanks I think" Tharhack tells Gothmog "Where did Xanoniel take Alriand?" Tharhack asks a little more forceful this time. Gothmog walks up behind Tharhack and peers over his shoulder at Raziel. "Wink, wink. Left, up, down, left, up, look at Gothmog.
