I just had a dream where "I" was Guts, and was using the DragonSlayer to kill Death's (Death was an apostle of Griffith's in the Neo Hawks) dog. I was having a heck of a time cutting through its tough hide. It also had a slightly elastic thing going on, where I would cut so far, but then it would bend back into shape. Finally I managed to chop through entirely, and broke the DragonSlayer on the ground (the DS in this context didn't look anything like the actual DS, but was more like a rapier with a strange curling, hooking shape). Then Death burst into the area where I had killed his dog, and told me he had killed [Guts'] dog and my cat in revenge. There was some sort of benefit associated with killing Death's dog, but I don't really remember what it was.
Then [as Guts] I managed to find a sword that looked like the actual DS. Problem was, I think, it was made of wood. It was definitely too light to be the real thing. There was some sequence where I was travelling, I killed some thieves, and made it to a town. I was worried because if I had to fight any actual apostles, my sword wouldn't hold up. I thought about trying to reforge the DS myself, but then realized the town would probably have a smith that would do it for me. So I gave him the sword, and when I got it back, the DragonSlayer looked like the DragonSlayer, except it was about 6 inches long and had a plastic handle with toy light-up action on the hilt when you swung it.
At some point I found some sort of golden sword. I was pretty disappointed in Miura because the DragonSlayer is Guts' characteristic weapon, and having him use some other lame sword is frustrating. In any case, there was a recurrence of the dog-slaying incident, which began when I saw Death (who, to note, had a golden tint to every part of him, even if I can't recall anything else about how he looked), enter into a bar. I herded the dog into some nearby building with [Isidro] and we managed to kill it. Again, Death burst in, angrily. At this point there's some fuzziness, but eventually I got into a fight with Death. Serpico or Isidro got his arm cut off, something weird happened to Casca where she also acquired this golden tint, but eventually we subdued Death and tied him up. While he was tied up, I used my golden sword and cut him up [literally] into little pieces of cake. Then there's some more stuff I don't remember.
