Draal was a strong and brave troll in Trollmarket under the grounds of Arcadia. He faced Gunmar who was finally out of the Darklands and in the surface of the human world. He should have run while he had the chance like Gunmar said, but he insisted. That blue troll replied, he does not run. He called himself Draal, protector of James Lake, the Bular Slayer. He made an oath to protect Jim from danger with his life because he was the sworn guardian of the trollhunter and he honored his oath. That was before Gunmar used his blade to take control of him, not his body but his mind. Oh, my God. How horrible. Draal was being controlled by the evil Gunmar to get to Jim and couldn't resist until he was freed from the wretched trance by the magic of Merlin in the cave behind the waterfall. Gunmar forced him to do things he never would have done himself. Draal was not just Jim's protector, he was his friend.
