Back in the day, Guts the Black Swordsman was a top slayer for The Band of the Hawk, an elite mercenary unit led by Griffith, whose calm demeanor and callow beauty belied his fighting prowess and steel will. While in a king&;s employ, the attraction between the king&;s daughter and Griffith and the growing favor of the king towards the Hawk leader raises the hackles of the king&;s jealous son, who plots to have Griffith summarily assassinated. But if the plot fails, the king&;s son will likely have to deal with Guts and his titanic broadsword, and the results of such confrontations are rarely pretty... or easy to clean up."
