Voonder hasn't been seen since December, 2007!

One might wonder what has been happening with him and Holden the last 2 and a half years.
Well, lots has, as will be shown in the upcoming Voonder comic.

The majority of the Wilder Clan supports Voonder unquestionably. However, there are some influential goblins who think Voonder is weak and should have his role as Warlord removed. The primary reason some see Voonder as weak or "soft" is the fact that he's allowed Holden to live so long.

The question is, should Voonder give into pressure, and eat poor Holden in an effort to impress those who question his strength? Or is there a better option for the blue-haired savage goblin? Indeed, goblin politics aren't easy!

::voonder:: Eat him alive!- Voonder finally decides to eat Holden, whether for his dining pleasure and/or to appease critics.
::voonder:: Let him go free (publicly) - Voonder, with the full knowledge of the Wilder Clan, let's Holden go home.
::voonder:: Let him go free (secretly) - Voonder secretly releases Holden then lies and tells the Wilder Clan he killed the slave.
::voonder:: Share him with the clan - Voonder decides to let the entire clan (or at least the influential goblins) chow down on Holden.
::voonder:: Status quo - Voonder doesn't change anything. Holden remains alive and enslaved.
::voonder:: Other plan - Tell us your devious plan!

Nah, both Voonder and Holden are supposed to be more inventive than that...
I'd say Holden should come up with "two for one" scheme (i.e. "let me go and I'll bring back TWO new slaves"), and Voonder should somehow outsmart him and get a whole bunch (school class, boyscout troop, tribe - whatever) of new toys, and maybe keep Holden, too... That way everybody is happy - Voonder proves himself a capable leader, "some influential goblins" see traditions upheld (i.e. old slave is here no more), and Holden gets to stay alive (and maybe even free)... And we, the readers, get the entertaining value of watching this thing unfold :)

I guess it qualifies as "Other plan"

I'm going for no change, after all all great leaders know when to show mercy, Vonder of course can extend said mercy on Holden by not eating him. This means he doesn't need to waste any further mercy on anybody else.

Besides, if Vonder gets rid of Holden, he can't mess with his mind.

I say think outside the box. Make the goblins that are questioning Voonder into slaves themselves, and put Holden in charge of them.
