Henry Spencer said:True, but regardless, I hope they survive.
Well like I said, I'm not worried.
Henry Spencer said:Wonder where the remaining Kushan will run to and if they will actually reform.
If there are any Kushans left in Midland at all, you mean (other than those Griffith recruited). Assuming some are left, in my opinion it would only be in very small numbers and they would either flee or be massacred (or both).
Henry Spencer said:Seems like that ignorance may be their undoing, following Griffith's lead into the supposed haven they need during these turbulent times.
It's not like the whole situation hasn't been meticulously planned long ago in order to manipulate everyone into doing what a superior power wants, though. Common people are completely helpless to have any meaningful impact on the world at this point, and their total ignorance of not only the God Hand but also how the world works can be both seen as a cause and a consequence for it.
Henry Spencer said:Yeah, it was the former. I just was surprised that Foss seemed to know so much. Especially considering the other story floating around that was told by Charlotte seemed to be far from the real truth, I figured these aristocratic types to mess the stories up.
To know so much? He knows there is/was a legendary city buried under Wyndham. Like Charlotte, Judo and presumably every person with a little historical knowledge or who has sat around many a campfire to hear tales in his or her life. Also, I don't see how what Foss said contradicts what Charlotte said at all.
Henry Spencer said:Then again, Miura may want to leave that for later as a surprise.
Yes. Besides, this episode was the perfect end for the arc, the chapter and this section of the story on Griffith's side. Hell, with some tweaks (Ok, heavy tweaks) it could even be an open ending to the very story itself.
