I bleed too.

-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 safe?

If there are any plans to seek out the cause of this, or to stand guard until this is adequately repaired, I will gladly assist.

That was a rather rude awakening.
This wasn't some earthquake. There are completely severed bricks and I almost met with a large blade. Burst through the wall and missed me just barely. Behilit must not think it is my time to die. I was struck by some debris, but am not heavily injured. However, I would like to know who is responsible for this. Any ideas, my friend? Any interest in finding out at all?

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?

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?

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.

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

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.

I'm okay! It woke me up, though.

As long as you are safe, dear. And stay that way, of course.

I am still lurking about the school and I have yet to see you, so if you see a man with white wavy hair, that would be me.

I'm fine! I wanted to help clean up the broken wall, but I don't think I can.

I'll bet you could help me move them. At least one or two at a time, couldn't you? We can work together.

Wonderful. I will expect you to work very hard! Do your very best.

I believe I understand this incident. This creature has become bored, as no one has challenged his blade. If one listened to his prior posts, one would come invariably to that conclusion.

My, Griffth. You're usually more proficient at caring for yourself.

Oh how droll.

I happen to have been sleeping up against the wall. I stood when I felt a commotion and in came the blade.

So this thing is not a human? Many have said that.

Were I to seek it out, I believe I could make this blade you gifted me efficient..

Sleeping up against the wall? That's not good for your circulation!

Indeed. It appears to be an armored creature of some type, though vaguely sentient.

I would like to see that! Unfortunately, Subaru-kun just moved in today, so I need to make sure he stays put.

Oh I am quite sure my circulation is fine. Yours must be flowing splendidly..

I will learn more about this creature before I make any sort of plans to approach it.

A beast called Nightmare, my friend.

[info]midlands_hawk
Nightmare.. So this is not a man, but a beast?

And how may I address you, friend? I don't believe we have met, I am Griffith.

He is human in basic body form, but I've known many beasts who were.

Johnny, my friend. I originally thought you might've been a woman, I'm sorry to say.

...Ah. Well.. I do assure you that I am not. I am a knight from Midland, Count Griffith. Sorry to disappoint you..

Johnny. Alright. So am I to understand that he is gifted this strength and change by something else?

I don't know the details, but I haven't heard anything from it since the initial attack on the school. The beast has most likely taken to rest.

It acted as if it had been some time since it was able to committ such action.

I feel like I haven't battled in a long time. This is making me restless.. I suppose I should learn more about this creature before I seek it out.

In a place already filled with so much anguish, there is no need for it to take it's boredom out on the homes of the people here. Perhaps a proper duel is in order.

I wouldn't mind one, myself.

Are you any good with swords?

I'm a master swordsman, though you may not know my style.

I'm quick to adapt, my friend. I live to learn...

I look forward to it, then.
