Meanwhile, the entire city of Culerica is hit by a heatwave, and violence amongst the goblin clans threatens the precarious balance between humans, goblins and elves, risking to turn the entire city into a battlefield. A shadowy terrorist is threatening to unleash chaos during the celebration of an ancient human victory over the goblins. The ruthless and cultivated colonel Goadbeiles is tasked to unravel the web of lies and deception and is drawn into the war between two goblin clans.
