He heard shouting! There were sounds like barking or maybe singing! Mojag thought that these were cheers on his behalf as he threw himself before the stag; but then there was a flash of white in the corner of his eye and he saw Heda, and heard her warning.

The stag did not immediately strike out for him then. There were two wolves before it and double the danger. It lagged, snorting as Heda pulled away to leave the boy on his own again, and then it brandished its crown for Mojag and he was quick to backpedal.

While he did that, the stag stomped and moved closer; but a sound behind it, of the does moving and the brown dog making his noise and the white wolf stomping the other way, all served to confuse him.

Mojag peeled away from the confrontation and followed Heda.
