The arrival of the moonlight boy on Elfhelm is an enormous moment that we've been anticipating for a long time. What could this mean for Casca, who has recently regained her sanity? A thread.
Casca formed a bond with the moonlight boy while Elaine. She seemed to have a mother's intuition that he was her son. He is clearly drawn to her, and visits them during the full moon. He appears in her memory bubbles from her time as Elaine meaning she recalls him now as Casca.
In Casca's dream, the main cause of her mind going asunder shows her son in the center. This is conjecture, but you see the infant wrapped in thorns similar to the ones wrapped around her heart, suggesting that what binds her heart is linked to the infant.
Casca's dream sprite states, "there's someone I want to see." Shierke and Farnese seem to assume it's Guts, however, I believe she is referring to her son. I believe that seeing her son is the most key element for Casca's heart to fully heal.
Currently, Casca hasn't fully regained her memories. She has yet to remember the eclipse and doesn't seem to recall giving birth. With each memory recalled, she enters a painful state of PTSD. - -
Seeing her son will undoubtedly be traumatic, as she will recall being r*ped, her deformed infant's birth (and Guts trying to immediately kill their child.) I believe the moonlight boy approached Guts first in this recent chapter as a way to protect his mother from this reaction.
She will see him as foreshadowed by Farnese. He will be the most crucial missing piece for Casca's healing. She will have a renewed purpose and strength. Griffith was once her reason for living, and now it will be her son. Do not forget that she is a strong woman with conviction.
And as for Casca and Guts, I honestly don't know. As much as I truly do long for them to reunite I feel at best we can hope for a bittersweet ending. I believe they will bond over their son, and join forces for his best interest.
Also please, I never make threads. I would love discourse on this! I mostly tried to also summarize key points regarding Casca and the moonlight boy đź’ś
