July 1, 2016 | ||
Description A few years after the events of a solar eclipse, one that foretold the coming of an angel of darkness, a lone swordsman walks into a bar where an elf is being tormented by a group of bandits. When the bandit leader threatens to kill a red-haired youth requesting membership, Guts beats the gang and takes his leave with the freed elf, named Puck, following him. Eventually, Guts reluctantly accepts being picked up by an old priest named Adolf despite warning him that he is constantly hunted by evil spirits. After sunset, waking up after a nightmare, Guts and the wagon are attacked by spiritually-possessed skeletons with Adolf and his daughter Collette killed off during the assault. Guts spent the night fighting the skeletons and then a tree animated by pagan spirits. Despite Puck attempting to console Guts, who hears the spirits' constant taunting, the swordsman scoffs the deaths of Adolf and Collette as proof of their weakness. Guts attempts to leave before he is surrounded by the Holy Iron Chain Knights, who have been tracking him since the day they investigated the events of the solar eclipse and came across the remains of mutilated men in a pool of blood. | ||||

But Guts is wounded by a cross arrow bolt, followed by a piece of wood, and falls unconscious. Once stripped of his gear and brought to the knights' camp, Guts is interrogated by Farnese for answers that include the mysterious demise of the Band of the Hawk, having found the mercenary group's bloodied remains after the solar eclipse. As Guts mocks on her authority and her faith, Farnese whips him until Azan arrives. Guts is placed in a cage soon after, freed by Puck at nightfall as the spirits start to awaken. Guts enters Farnese's tent to recover his equipment while finding her in the middle of self-flagellation, deciding to take her hostage for a quick escape.
