Influences

Steel borrows concepts and names from the manga Berserk, for example the lyrics of "Band of the Hawk": 'We are a mercenary band, led by Griffith, the white hawk.' "Iron Hand" similarly refers to protagonist Guts's iron arm, referring to him as the 'Black Swordsman'.

gollark: I suspect it's `load`ing or possibly `loadfile`ing something.
gollark: The bit after your weird SHA256 obfuscation bit is quite small and seems to just call some global functions.
gollark: This is weird. The actual obfuscated useful code must be really tiny.
gollark: ... no.
gollark: You can't escape it that way.
