After a relatively good rest at The Spanking Troll, Aymer and Cora decide they need to raise some money to start their quest.

- Aymer: I told you we should have taken some gold when we left the keep.
- Cora: You mean steal from your father, I reckon?
- Aymer: The rich bastard wouldn't have noticed.
- Cora: Come on, we are not thieves. Let's go find some honest work.
- Aymer: I know just the thing we can do with our skills. A gremiln told me there's a guy organizing fights in an arena and the pay is worthwile.
- Cora: Yeah, that's some honest work allright!

Late at night, in a secluded clearing in the forest...

- Announcer: Welcome to the arena ladies and gentlemen! Tonight we have a special treat for you: two legends return to the arena after a two years hiatus: the barbarian duo Vaplurgis and Liongarr. It's going to be a bloody spectacle tonight.
- Aymer: Ummm Cora, what the Megablocks is that?
- Cora: Must be one of the giant wolves roaming these forests.
- Aymer: This is not what I was expecting...
- Cora: And what did you expect to find in a shady fight in the middle of the forest organized by that golden tincan, Sir Elfkiller? A chivalrous duel with knights in shining armor and queens kissing the victors?
- Aymer: Well the queens part would be nice...
- Cora: Shut up and fight! I told you we should find some honest work and this is what YOU came up with.
- Aymer: Fine, let's get this over with.

I especially like how the back legs of the wolf look poised to pounce!

Awesome wolf... that thing has some character! Love the ears, claws, and mouth the most.

And quite movable too... well done with the joints!

I'd love to see 2 of those things face off in a battle! :-)

I really like the stone building, here, somehow with just a few strategically placed plants you give the impression of carefully cultivated seeming-abandonment.

Wow this is fantastic, the wolf, the buildings, and the figs are fantastic! I highly recommend submitting this to Lego Ideas, it would definitely get my support!

Thanks everyone. :)

@mpoh98 Thanks, although I doubt it would pass, a castle theme is already out and they never release stuff that conflicts with their current themes.

But they're not making the current castle theme anymore,and the sets will be gone by the time this thing gets 10000 supporters.
