I was scared this was gonna be a love triangle but I guess I was wrong. Godo seems to only see Hyeon as a dear friend and just wants the best for him. Besides his blatant racism towards snakes, I really do adore Godo.
He always respects what Hyeon wants in the end even if he disagrees. He went on and on about not interfering with cadet placement after training but in the end he was going to do just that. He told Yayhul he was going to work him to death if he chose to stay there, then asked him about it. It was to test how serious he was about Hyeon because he was gobsmacked when he said he'd go back home. I'd like to see more about his life or about their childhoods.
Aesir is such a tragic character. Everytime I look at him my heart hurts. It's started to get more noticable of how lonely he is, that's why I'm glad he stayed with the Elf caravan in the recent chapter (23). Since they're fellow elves I hoped they temporarily distracted him from the pain of his long lifespan and what recently happened to Kaeha. It hurts seeing him constantly mourning the death of a friend. He doesn't deserve it at all.
Gege is fr my biggest opp rn I'm not even joking
