Although the protagonist does not necessarily have to appear only at the very end, those who appear right at the beginning are rarely the protagonist. The wolf-riding House-elps that appeared at the start of this monster siege were likewise just appetizers.
As the various Houses stabilized their respective defense positions, the wolf-riding House-elps pouring from the rear began to dwindle, gradually replaced by massive dire wolves without riders. Moreover, these dire wolves were visibly larger than the previous ones.
As everyone knows, in games, physical size generally represents monster strength. A small size does not necessarily mean weak strength, but a large size generally means strength will not be weak.
