Only a madman would willingly encounter them; but goblins, at great cost to themselves, have managed to tame and ride them.
-
-The claws of a wolf are not generally regarded as being the more dangerous parts, but on a beast this large, they are thicker and longer than iron nails. Their riders smear a poison on the front set, not unlike that used by the orcish assassins, making a swipe from these beasts’ paws into a most deadly stroke."
+    description= _ "While the danger of direwolves may make them a bad omen in Wesnoth, the goblins see things differently. They goblins learned to create strong bonds with Wolves, seeing them as symbolizing the greatness that they may ahcieve, despite not being born orcs. To them Direwolves are valued almost as high as themselves.
+    
+Occasionally, a goblin may ride a Direwolf into battle, where they may be deadly to those attacked by them. To the orcs this is only a military strategy, for  they know the great strength of Direwolves. To the goblins this is something to be proud of."
