The Heroic Legend of Arsland Episode 12 Review

A Knights Loyalty

Silver Mask, Hermes, is one good fighter. If you look back at previous episodes Narsus and Daryun fought against him and they barley won. When he is fighting the Zot tribe he didn't even break a sweat. He also has a pathology that only those who have the right, by birth mostly, should rule. No one can brake that rule. He belittles Altreed just because that is her name and he feel that it is a name for a lady of royal or noble linage. He doesn't it as her right to have that name. He has been so warped by Andragoras killing the father and trying to kill him. He feels everything must be in it's rightful place and shouldn't move.
When Narsus goes up to him and saves Altreed, he doesn't go in with out a plan. He always has a plan, most like three or four plans. He fights first with his mind then goes in to fight with his sword. That is a good strategist. He knows his enemies and his surroundings so he know what to do when he fights.
Meanwhile back in the Capital, the Lusitanians are fighting with in their own ranks. They really shouldn't be taking over other countries if they can't even govern them selves. That is normally the problem with people in power they fight to get power then they are afraid they'll lose it so they fight to keep it, even if you don't have to. Bobin is so clouded by his views of how god is and how people who serve god should be treated that he can't work with any one. They only people he can work with are those who believe as much as he does. Guiscard is looking out for his people and their hold on the Capital, since no one else really his. He is not above playing dirty if it for the grater good.
Daryun is starting to become a favorite. Even though he now knows that Arslan may not be the rightful King, he's still going to fight by his side to protect and serve him. He know Arslan may never rule, he may never be king. But, Daryun is going to stay be his side because that is his choice.
And the best part of the show is back, Gieve flirting with Farangis to no avail yet again. It may be comic relief but still one of the best parts of the show.
