Your first task as a whelp is to take Vilkas' sword upstairs to be sharpened. Don't go inside but instead up the stairs to the right of the building. At the top will be the forge. Talk to Eorlund Gray-Mane and he will sharpen the sword for you while telling you a little bit about the history of the Companions. Listen as much as you like and, after, Eorlund will ask you to take a shield to Aela for him. Take the shield back inside and you’ll likely find Aela in the basement. She will tell Farkas to show you to a bed so you can get some rest. Rest if you wish and then ask Farkas if there’s any work to start a quest.
