i think Puck isn't enough of a elf to even make something that would get him banned or something and what i mean is that i think is probably too young now (thus his irreverence).

For starters Puck did mention Elfhelm, but not the elf king. After the mine was destroyed Guts asked Puck if he knew of anywhere close and Puck thought a while and then said oh my home. Its a little farther away but its a glorious place.

Also Puck would not have gotten exiles. He was definitely bored and wanted to travel. That is one of the reasons he kinda stuck with Guts, is for the adventure.

PS Those quotes are wrong, that is purely from memory and more just to show the sequences of events.

Umm maybe to elves that are mostly perfect Puck is annoying. So they exiled him. This would be similar to JarJar binks in starwars. Another thing is I believe that Silkes Elf(damn me, i forgot her name starts with a M though) acts like a normal elf would, and she is pretty annoyed by Puck.

By M you I, since her name is Ivalera. But M and I are close on the keyboard right. :P

She is not annoyed by him overly much so. I think she actually likes him now. I mean she makes fun of him out of love. Cause sometimes they get along quite well. But what Puck does, is not something you would get exiled for. Its just stupid games and stuff. But when he looks back at it he always has fond memories, and seems to talk about it as though he left on his own so he could see the world. Normally people have bitter memories of places they are exiled from, or he maybe would have mentioned something about it. Also Jar Jar Binks is annoying to the extreme. If he was not in the first starwars the movie would be a million times better.

Well, I thought it was implying that Puck didn't know the Elven King was a legend, not he did or didn't know of the existence of the Elven King.

What if Puck was the Prince of the Elves :P ? That's why he didn't know his old man was a legend, because he was trapped in his palace bored out of his mind, and that's why he left :wink: :P .

Though I remember someone saying that Puck could be the Elf King earlier, I highly doubt that, but I do see a possibility that Puck may be nobility or someone important. It could be along those lines. I also I took it the same way as Eldo, and I think it was written that way as well, that Puck knew of the Elf King, just didn't know he was a legend.

Well if you are an elf then you must know about the elf king since he is your ruler;)

Well travel was slow back then, and communication, so if you lived off far away somewhere and never went there there is a chance you wouldn't know of him. But in Pucks case, he did live in the same city so he should know who he is.

Well if Puck is indeed the elven king. Then Gutts and his crew are certified fucked up. Not only will Casca not get healed. But if Griffith attacked they'd be screwd.

If he was it would just be fucked up. That would be bad, but I highly doubt it. If he was he would say something, he is always trying his hardest to help out Guts in any way he can, unless it involves staying awake.

If he was the elf king maybe he is hiding his power so they treat normal and not as a king.

Thats not likely since he would tell who he was to heal Casca.

if puck was the elf king then the old witch would have told guts that he was. She knew who the elf king was, and never mentioned anything about puck when he was around.

Oh, don't worry. Puck's not the Elven King, for the ones who are a bit slow :P. But I know who he is! The real elven king is Hanafubuku! :wink:

Nah, I reign over Lucretia. Hanafubuku is the man you guys want. He's the king of Elfheim. We met at a council meeting. He's pretty wild. We've partied together. However, I still say he shouldn't have named his country while being so blown. :P

K....

Anyway, im not sure if Puck didnt know the Elven King was a legend or not, or maybe he was exiled by him...? I heard this gossip before, maybe it is true.

Yeah but since this is a manga and his is an important king for the story he will most likly have a look so you can see he is the king.
