The group walks through the plains. A campsite is nearby, large and fires burn.

Maja: should we try and talk to them?

Nex: no

Jana: they could be friendly

Nex: and they could be not

Maja: well i think it is a good idea and so do the others so stay if you want

Nex: fine. I will stay here then.

Nex sits down with their arms crossed. Prince Wilhelm joins them as the group goes into the camp. Nex sits for about 10 minutes before they are alerted by the wolf arrow being fired. It rises high in the sky as an arm of wolf ghosts erupt from the earth near nex.

Nex: looks like it is time to save the day again

Prince Wilhelm becomes large enough and nex rides on him. Nex has their scythe and shield at the ready, leading the wolf charge. They enter the campsite to see goblins, fully armed all around. Nex dismounts wilhelm and runs into the fray.

Maja(taking cover): nex, they have the others

Nex: take the wolves to free them and i will hold the rest of the goblins off

Maja: but there are thousands of them

Nex: exactly, it will be easy for me.

They run into the army, screaming a war cry. Nex teleports into a crowd and swings their scythe, cutting a massive circle in the goblin ranks. Nex then throws the scythe, tearing further into the goblins. One approaches nex and nex pulls out a knife and slices up, cutting the goblin vertically in half. They dash through the carcass and stab the knife through the stomach of another goblin. Nex creates a spear and smashes into the next set of goblins, being a one-person shield wall. Goblins spill aside as nex smashes a goblins skull open with a shield and skewers three goblins on their spear. Nex spins around, bellowing fire onto the goblins. The goblins pull back in fear, fleeing full of terror. The earthquakes as nex opens up giant sinkholes, consuming thousands of goblins. Death flows in nexs veins as they absorb all the dead.

A giant goblin walks through the fleeing army and towards nex. It carries a large club and swings this at nex. Nex grows to the same size as the monstrous goblin and recalls their weapons. All disappear except for the scythe which returns to its usual place on the necklace. Nex pummels a fist into the goblin giant and it flies back a mile, dead and crushing most of the fleeing army.

Nex returns to their normal size. The wolves all disappear as the group meets nex. They all hug before a voice surprises them. A group of archers and swords people wearing wolf clothing appear.

Nex: do not worry, this is the wolf tribe, they must have saw the arrow

Tribesman: Come with us, the leader will be happy to see you. These goblins have been bothering us.

The group joins the tribes people and they make their way with them.
