hi griffguts nation I'm back with a wip. drawing this time...(based on this painting of Anne Boleyn and Elizabeth I)

found out one of the last things Anne Boleyn did before she died was order more clothes for little Elizabeth I and I got saaaaaaddddd omgg. It gave me an idea for an AU where Griffith undergoes a similar false imprisonment, and begs asks the King to show mercy upon his daughter, and not leave her destitute as he was in his youth. He leaves every cent he can to Guts, who is his baby daddy daughter's godfather, and tries to leave them as well off as he can before his execution.

One of the few mercies they grant him is regular visits with his daughter, who is accompanied by Guts every time she visits. She asks when he's coming back, when they can all play again together, and it takes all the strength he can muster not to break down. He finds a way to make her forget her question, and once she is tired out and snuggled in his arms fast asleep, he feels a few tears fall onto her silver hair. Guts gathers them up in his arms and holds them silently until it's time to leave again, for good this time. The heavy lock of the prison door marks the last day as a family, and the White Hawk's last full day in this mortal realm...
