In a land before time only the greatest hunters of the Gorgoth tribe
were able to ride trolls. To gain the highest rank of their caste they
had to engage one of those savage beasts in a bold fight and cut of its
horns. By doing this they broke the troll's pride and thereby became
the master of it.
Here you can see the first hunt the young
master hunter Tholz does on his recently tamed troll. They have been
roaming the the coppice all morning, when Tholz suddenly spots a deer
herd grazing on a clearing. Avidly he gives the command to attack the
deer, pulls the reins and draws a spear from his quiver. The troll
obeys his masters order and rushes forward. The ground trembles under
the heavy steps of the troll and the deer scatter in all directions
trying to escape the danger. The master hunter picks an especially
chunky one from the herd and commands his troll to go after it.
Although the deer is quite fast the troll easily manages to catch up
with it after a few seconds.
Tholz raises his stance and prepares
for his throw, trying to get a steady aim on the deer. But suddenly the
troll alters cause. It spotted a small white rabbit bounding happily
through the forest.
'ARRRR' Tholz pulls the reins and screams: 'THE DEER YOU FOOL! GO FOR THE DEER!'
