One evening, the Gaulish village is visited by two Arverni chieftains, Monolithix and Sidekix, who were lieutenants to Vercingetorix up to the fateful battle of Alesia and thus good acquaintances of Vitalstatistix.

Rebellious and strong-willed, Adrenalin quickly wearies of the village's adults and befriends the younger generation, particularly Selfipix and Blinix, the eldest sons of Fulliautomatix and Unhygienix respectively.

During the chaotic search between the Gauls, the Romans and Binjwatchflix for her, Adrenalin encounters two of the pirates collecting fresh water and, to Redbeard's consternation, attempts to commandeer their ship in order to sail to Thule to live her life in peace.

In a rapid sequence of events, the Gauls and pirates are forced to contend with Adrenalin's stubbornness and a Roman galley attacking them.

After giving her blessing to Asterix's village as Vercingetorix's true successors, Adrenalin departs for Thule with a young shipmaster named Peacenix.
