Editing Garen Redfang (section)

=== Before becoming an adventurer ===
He was once a member of the Old Fire Tribe, having been named by the [Shaman]<ref name="2.36 G" />, but he had wandered away from his tribe as soon as he had grown older, dissatisfied with working for his Chieftain and wandering to become stronger. Garen had learned to fight by himself, and he’d leveled up as a [Warrior] quickly, becoming a Hobgoblin as well.

One day, he met by chance a [[Reiss|small Goblin]] who was running from a [[Wyverns|wyvern]]. He saved the small Goblin, and with his help, the two slew the wyvern.

The small Goblin had no name, but he had impressed Garen. They were the same age, despite the small Goblin being smaller. And they talked. Garen told him that he wanted to be a famous warrior, while the small Goblin told him that he wanted to be a Chieftain and teach all Goblins magic. They were very different, but they liked each other. So the small Goblin took Garen to his tribe, the [[Ghostly Hand Tribe]], and convinced the Chieftain to let the Garen stay and the two worked together. They became friends. And after a while, they were like brothers.

During his stay in the tribe, he and the small Goblin learned from their Chieftain that she looked back and saw the memories of [[Velan|Velan the Kind]] last months before he died. They discovered that Velan hid his treasure in the [[High Passes]] and locked it away with 2 keys. Velan then gave one to [[Tallis]] and kept the other for himself.

One day, the small Goblin became a Hob, and he and Garen, decided they were strong enough to challenge their Chieftain. They lost and had to flee from the angry Chieftain and others Goblins chasing them.

Shamefaced they resolved to grow stronger. Their problem, which the Hob with magic pointed out, was that they did not know the world, as they had not fought under the Goblin King and the Humans had adventurers, while the Drakes had cities with magic walls. The Hob with magic pondered on how they could surpass them, until Garen told him that he wanted to become an adventurer to fight monsters. Then the Hob with magic had the idea that they should go and learn, in order for them to grow stronger.

So for Garen to become a great warrior and the Hob with magic the Chieftain they wanted to be, they decided to split up. While it was not an easy choice to make, they were so fearless and overconfident that the two of them thought they could do anything.
