Asterix and the Goths

This time our little wise Gaul Asterix stepped in Germania encountering the barbaric Goths (Germans) to release the kidnapped Getafix following the annual druid Conference in which that later was awarded the trophy of the champion. The Goths wanted Getafix to prepare magic potions for them so that their invincible army can invade the rest of the world. In this they were united at first but the cunning of Getafix ultimately got the better of them and while Asteric and Obelix rescued him from the clutches of the barbaric hordes, Getafix himself caused the Goths to turn against each other. Thus the Goths were for several years kept in the confines of their own boundary and the Gauls were once again seen living peacefully with the closing of the adventure.
