In Midland's southern fiefdom of Lumias a young noble named Mule Wolflame lies in waiting in some thick underbrush along with a large group of Midland soldiers to ambush a Kushan caravan to avenge his father and brothers. One of his subordinates, Saritus tries to convince Mule that they should act rashly while revealing rumors he heard of Griffith's return.

But Mule's group learned too late that the captured Midlanders have become fodder in the Kushan Army under fear of death. But at the moment before the two forces meet, several Kushan cavalrymen were decapitated by arrows shot of an archer named Irvine as Zodd leads an army of armored warriors under the banner of the Band of the Hawk to slaughter the Kushan. As the confused Mule noticed the girl with him, Griffith demoralizes the surviving Kushan by revealing their general died by his hand. The few remaining Kushan flee to report of Griffith's reappearance, only to be ambushed a slaughtered by monstrous creatures led by Rakshas.
