After defeating the fire giant, most of the Cardinal Kegareta was injured. Traveling back to the Roundtable hold to recover. Except Hinokami, the leader had oddly went on his own venture. Leaving and going in the direction of the Caria Manor.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be back.” He reassures the group, throwing a thumbs up as he walks away, Hinokami was known as the most fierce tarnished since Vyke as he was able to best Radahn in battle and Strike down Morgott the Omen King solo. He truly was fit to be the Elden Lord.
The group was heavily injured and exhuasted, Maria’s magic was depleted and Shimukro’s body was battered after being crushed under the weight of the Fire giant. Kirihana was near death as she laid in one of the chambers to heal.
3 days later, Hinokami finally returns. With a ring on his finger.
“Yeah. I married the Princess.” He says in a cocky voice, winking at you as he flaunts his hand. Even though he was a leader he never really had the traits to be a humble and down to earth one, always finding something to brag about. But this was the one time he had the right to flaunt.
