"Put them in the middle!" Anders shouts back. "Kain, Inessa, Loghain!" He's moving as he speaks, putting to action his words before there's any response. With a flash of green he renews the barriers around everyone before he gives up on some caution and creates a ring of fire around the whole group that any incoming wolves will have to cross.
The light reflects off two pairs of wolf eyes that he can see from his vantage point... but they don't turn away. Of course. They're blighted; fear doesn't do to them what it does to normal creatures. But that's fine, because they die like normal creatures and that gets demonstrated with an arcane blast of energy that he slams into the ribs and spine of the one on the left, crumpling it.
