You had taken the harsh journey from your home in Winterhold to join the Companions in Whiterun, not everybody was receptive of new people possibly tainting the guild but you had been there long enough to finally get sent out on your first mission, with Aela accompanying you. You felt blessed to have somebody of such strong legend fighting by your side, but she clearly did not feel the same way. The objective was simple, a pack of something was terrorising a farm just outside of The Reach and they had asked the Companions for help.

"The first decent task handed out and I get stuck with the fresh blood." Aela walked up the cobbled path, her ornate bow slung over her shoulder and a map tucked into her pocket, she mentioned how it would only be a few miles before reaching the farm so it was best to stay alert.

"Just because I'm new does not mean I cannot fight."

"Have you ever had to defend yourself against a pack of wolves?" She asked, her ears twitching to every little sound that radiated out from the surrounding forests.

"They know I am capable. Let my fighting talk for me. The den could be anywhere around here, we should start tracking."

"We don't even know what we are looking for, we need to get to the farm and ask them what kind of animals we are looking for." Aela checked the map, of course she did not want to go a single step in the wrong direction if it meant more time spent with you.

"We could miss out on anything in the time it takes us to get there." Aela stopped, folded the map up and shoved it back into her pocket.

"I have done this for as long as I can remember. Stop talking, you are here to obey orders, not to give them."

"You know as much as I do." You argued. "There are no orders, not when it comes to the likes of you anyway." That clearly angered her, her reputation as a brave and valiant warrior may have preceded her but even she knew that gave her no jurisdiction over you.

"We need to take payment anyway." She continued to walk, this time more swiftly and with greater purpose.

"What is your problem?" She stopped again, only momentarily before starting again.

"My problem is that I don't trust you, I haven't seen you fight or even fire a bow. Stay here, I'll get you when I'm finished."
