-05- Crumbling Down

[midlands_hawk]

-Some weary breaths before Griffith's completely composed words are heard over the communicator-

It seems I have chosen the worst possible time to visit the high school. I didn't even have a chance to look for familiar faces. It could have been worse, I suppose. I should be out looking for the one who did this..

Was anybody hurt?

Blossom, are you

The Knight was the creature responsible.

So this is a knight? What sort of a knight does such things, I wonder. I myself am a knight, although you say "creature"..

It has no body, no human soul to speak of. I did my best to try and strike the thing a crippling blow, but it somehow survived.

It's blade had an eye inset in the pommel

Certainly sounds to be potentially dangerous for everyone, not just seeking to cause any sort of mischief. The beast must be strong- was your encounter before or after it caused this damage?

Voice;

[heroisms]

After. My blade and my arm were strong enough to parry its blows, but I must reiterate: it is not human.

I have faced a large, brutish demon before. It may not have taken my life, but I certainly did not best in it. My weapon of choice is the rapier, however the sword I am now carrying is much larger. What size was the weapon it carried?

Thank you for telling me more about this creature. What is your name? How rude of me to have not asked you. I am Griffith, leader of the Band of the Hawk.

I am Gilgamesh, King of Kings, Slayers of the Heavenly Bull, and Denier of Ishtar; well met, Griffith of the Hawk.

The beast's blade was as large as I myself am -- perhaps larger, now that I am not staring at it face to face. Have you ever seen a Zweihander?

Voice;

[midlands_hawk]

A Zweihander.. I know them all too well...

[Guts..]

As a matter of fact, I am in possession of one right now.

A King.. It seems there is much royalty here. It is an honour, Your Highness.

[ A small laugh ]

Forget of the other Kings and Princes -- Gilgamesh is the first, and the last.

Voice;

[midlands_hawk]

I cannot forget my own dreams, I'm afraid. It is my destiny to be a King, after all.

Ah, but until then, this lowly knight remains beneath you, doesn't he? I will remember and respect that.

Voice;

[heroisms]

[ Another laugh ]

As you will.

Voice;

[midlands_hawk]

Of course, Your Highness..
