Gilbert: Difference between revisions

Line 29:

Gilbert was a proud and skilled mercenary who earned his livelihood through his exceptional abilities. Originally serving as a mercenary leader within the [[Zexen Federation]], he chose to leave his family behind and venture to the [[Dunan (region)|Dunan region]] in search of employment opportunities when the fighting died down in Zexen.

Having previously been acquainted with [[Flik]] and [[Viktor]], Gilbert had crossed paths with them when he was hired by [[Muse City]] on a prior occasion. Later, while in the [[Highland Kingdom]], he found himself ~~enlisted~~ by the [[Highland Army]].

Having previously been acquainted with [[Flik]] and [[Viktor]], Gilbert had crossed paths with them when he was hired by [[Muse City]] on a prior occasion, just over prior to the [[Dunan Unification War]]. Later, while in the [[Highland Kingdom]], he found himself hired by the [[Highland Army]].

During the [[Dunan Unification War]], Gilbert participated in the initial assault on [[Muse City]] as part of the Highland Army. However, he had a change of heart midway through the battle when Flik and Viktor convinced him to switch sides. Subsequently, Gilbert continued to serve the [[New State Army]] as an infantry captain throughout the course of the Dunan Unification War. It is worth noting that he reportedly returned the money paid by the Highland Army for his services.

Despite the questionable action of betraying a contract as a mercenary, Gilbert found it morally unacceptable to follow a leader like [[Luca Blight]], who displayed a disregard for innocent lives. This was particularly troubling to Gilbert as he had left his wife, [[Mary]], and son, [[Thomas (Suikoden II)|Thomas]], behind while pursuing employment opportunities in the first place.
