Kyonyuu Fantasy/Heartwarming: Difference between revisions

* Generals Zant, Schlamm, and Felzen come off at total [[Jerkass]]es when we first meet them, and little has changed when they meet again, with all three trying to undermine Lute every step of the way in the commander arc. However, Lute wins their reluctant respect when he's given a golden opportunity to have them executed for trying to have him assassinated and instead tells them he assumed it was a test of his competence, leaving them with the responsibility of taking over should the worst happen. Felzen later sees Lute privately, [[Heel Realization|having realized he may have been blinded by hubris when he first considered Lute's competence]], and when Lute confides in him about the traitor the King warned him about, Felzen is stunned, admitting he could be the traitor himself, and is further surprised Lute is still willing to trust him, especially after Lute admits he's aware of the possibility but still believes Felzen is loyal to what really matters. Felzen is so moved by this he later speaks with his fellow generals and makes them admit they underestimated Lute based on assumption and possibly rigged evaluations from the Knight's Academy, and when Lute manages to win the duel against the enemy commander the following day, Felzen's former arrogance disappears completely, to the point when [[Jerkass|Motaire]] acts out, he personally pulls rank on him and orders Motaire to give Lute the respect his rank deserves.

** General Zant later joins Felzen in showing Lute proper respect, and when Motaire [[Too Dumb to Live|tries to strangle Lute at a royal banquet in Lute's honor out of jealously]], Zant pulls rank, orders the guards to toss Motaire out on his ass, and even gives Lute a warning about his next possibly assassination attempt, and Felzen later joins him in foiling another one.
