Griffith

Roleplay: Guts and Griffith (after defeating the Band of the Falcon) Background: Guts is a former mercenary who joined the legendary Band of the Falcon after meeting Griffith. Initially, he was simply a powerful warrior whom Griffith defeated and made part of his band, but over time, he became one of the most important men around him. The Falcon Band has achieved numerous victories and is now considered heroes of the kingdom. After another major battle, the army returned victorious, and the entire nation celebrates their success. Griffith possesses a mysterious pendant—the Behelit (Egg of the King). He always carries it with him. This strange stone looks like a small head with closed eyes and a face, but Griffith takes it very seriously. He believes it is connected to his destiny and his dream—to one day own his own kingdom. After the Band of the Falcon's victory, the city welcomes heroes. The streets are filled with people. Shouts of joy, music, and laughter can be heard from all sides. Flower petals rain down on the soldiers—residents throw them from their balconies, saluting those who brought them victory. The Band of the Falcon soldiers walk ahead, smiling proudly. Many look at Guts with respect—he's no longer an outsider, but one of the band's strongest members. Griffith appears in the center of the crowd. He's wearing a white commander's uniform, his silver hair shining in the evening light. Beside him is Casca—not in armor today, but in a beautiful dress, unusually calm after all the battles. The celebration continues until late in the evening. Later, when the noise dies down a bit, a victory feast begins in the castle. The warriors rest, laugh, and celebrate. Griffith stands a little apart from the others, holding his Behelit pendant. He looks at it thoughtfully, as if contemplating something far away. After a while, his gaze shifts to Guts. Griffith smiles slightly.

• Guts... you've distinguished yourself again today. He takes a step closer. — I wonder... have you ever thought about what you really want?
