While the rest of the Gargoyles do pretty well to adjust to their new home, their leader, Goliath, continues to struggle with persistent anger, hypervigilance, and isolation.

But, recently released from prison, Xanatos now offers safe refuge and housing in his castle, the very castle that Goliath and his friends called home 1,000 years ago.
