From the seven remaining wolves, a variety of reactions erupt as two of their kind are put down. A few attempt to step backwards, whimpering at the plight of their kin. Others stand unchanged, probably better trained, and stand in the cold panting, ready to serve. Others still, begin to bare teeth and snarl snapping at the icy morning air through sharp and angry teeth.
But unlike their humanoid temporary companions, even restrained and tied in servitude, these animals have a leader, a pack instinct still ingrained. All looking much the same, it is hard to know which of them is considered alpha, perhaps it too... is uncertain of their fate. But not for long.
Attached to the front of the sled that holds six of these beasts, one wolf devoid of emotion stares at Faenala emptily as she moves forward, then lurching forward and snapping at her!
They growl then. All of them...
From behind the tensity of the front line, Bria calls out.
"Stop this! Let them be! They are no threat to us once we climb these slopes! Best we do it before they change their mind!"

I'm assuming the two wolves already killed were attached to the third sled, which has been omitted from map.

[sblock=Notes]Done some rolls for this in the OOC thread. I think we need an initiative roll from Faenala at this point, and Gimlak too. If Faenala wants to make another animal handing check, with Zem helping to calm them down, you can have advantage on the roll.
Should melee break out, you have advantage on to-hit rolls as the wolves are tied together.
Zemryn = 20
Wolves = 19
Gimlak & Faenala = ?
Wolf Init: 1D20+2 = [17]+2 = 19
