I'll keep this relatively short: it took me about 7200 words to finish putting the story on track for what so many people claim they want. Which naturally means this isn't going to happen immediately (or rather, the next chapter has some intermediary ground to cover first) and when it does take place, I can pretty much guarantee that it's not going to go well.
But this is what people seemed to want.
...actually, it's been part of the story's master plan the whole time. It just took a while to get here.
This may not be the record, but it may not be all that far off either.
And Cerea still hasn't beaten up a timberwolf.
