The King is on top as the Horse has Instinct And the Horse is lead by the King as the king has knowledge (Knowledge can be replaced by different words)
My favorite part about the abridged version is that if you've heard the original, you can tell exactly where "White" tripped up in the thought process.
I think it’s that the king has the killer instinct but the horse doesn’t. So if the horse were to lead into battle they would both die since the horse while having instinct doesn’t have an instinct to kill. It’s still kinda confusing though lmao.
Zangetsu is so accurate. I worked on something for my story earlier in my head and it made total sense then I went to put it into words and read aloud and I was like …. WHAT THE HECK IS THIS! I had it down earlier and now it makes no sense! I wish I could throw a sword at the computer.
FORM ABILITY AND POWER , THAT'S WHATS PUZZLING. IF THEIR FORM ABILITY AND POWER ARE EXACTLY THE SAME WHY IS IT THAT ONE BECOME THE KING AND LEAD THEM INTO BATTLE WHILE THE OTHER BECOMES THE HORSE AND CARRIES THE KING. SO WHAT'S THE CHARACTERICTIC THAT DISTINGUISHES THESE TWO BEINGS? THERE'S ONLY ONE ANSWER. INSTINCT!!!!!
The entire speech is basically how the rider wouldnt hesitate to charge in to kill Thus he says instinct The horse would hesitate not charge in, they lack the instinct to actively kill
