Description Fergus awakens at the Dunn farmhouse. Full of worries, and memories. The stallo's gloom softens however when he hears tiny snores coming from the cigar-box on the dresser. 

Nule it seems, fell asleep in Fergus' pocket the previous night, and hasn't stirred since. Which makes sense. Its the first time Nule has felt completely safe in a very long time. The stress of the past few days finally seems to have caught up with him. 

Goblins have evolved over the centuries to resemble the children of larger races. This was an evolutionary advantage for their survival. It made larger races less likely to harm them, and more likely to want to protect them. And when you live in a world that's entirely too big for you, being able to endear yourself to others naturally is a big plus.

Fergus definitely wasn't expecting to grow this fond of Nule so quickly. But having a tiny goblin child fall asleep, snuggled up in your pocket is quite the experience. Enough to crack even the stoniest of exteriors. Fergus finds himself growing a bit attached, inspite of himself. But the goblin's presence opens up a new set of troubles. 


Who is this wizard chasing Nule? Why are they so desperate to capture him? And what kind of awful life must this goblin have known, in order to say the things he did, the night before? Somehow, without even realizing it, Fergus has found a mantle of responsibility tossed squarely into his lap. A responsibility he never agreed to... 

What will he do now?

Maybe Nam has some answers.

wait, hold up(commenting on comments) i feel like i missed something here. who is Pok? i'm guessing the wizard they ran into earlier, but where was a name mentioned and how do you know they aren't a wizard?


otherwise, love the story. took me a minute to realize when this was taking place, i was still in the mindset of you'r writings, not your comics. all good now! i was worried you wouldn't show this part sens you seemed to skip ahead in your writings.

Good questions. Pock is the armored person who spent the night with the Dunns the night of the firestorm. They know his name is Pock because Adelelaide called him this in the comic. They know that Pock isn't a wizard because when Nam got a look at their face, she gasped and said 'That's not a wizard.'

The Goblin of Dornenholtz is AU. It explores what would happen if the rest of the plot was put on hold and if Nule chose to stay in Dornenholtz with Fergus. I try not to put things into the writing that will be explored in the comic. But rather explore parts of the characters and world that don't get as much attention in the comic.

well his species are not exactly tolerated by most so even if he is honest and well mannered people will treat him like any other street rat.
