Their journey searching for the Titans starts in Troll Market, travels to New York City, and winds up in the stunning landscapes of Camelot, where they experience the gigantic Titans managed by the arcane order.
Jim, who has actually lost his Trollhunter amulet, starts his journey as a human however the strength of the scenario allows him to wield Excalibur. The film reaches its climax as Arcadia changes into a battleground with the invasion of Titans who are thought to be controlled by the arcane order meaning to "start whatever afresh".

Even in the absence of his Trollhunter amulet, he acquires an Excalibur, and the obligation of safeguarding his home inspires him to embrace a more matured technique.
The film witnesses a significant character arc for Toby. His character develops beautifully from being Jim's funny partner to an accountable warrior. His guts shines through when he takes the danger and makes the supreme sacrifice to freeze the Titans, conserve the world, and safeguard his pals.
The ClimaxThe climax is quite remarkable and psychological, with Toby's sacrifice to conserve his good friends and the world. His death sends a shockwave through the group, particularly Jim.

EndingThe movie concludes on a poignant yet confident note. After reversing time, the audience sees Jim getting up at the beginning of their experience, recovering his amulet, and tackling his day as the Trollhunter. Although they lost Toby's memory, Jim and his good friends' decision to secure their city strengthens. Toby, uninformed of the initial timeline, finds the amulet suggesting a switch in roles for the next Tale of Arcadia.
