Like literally just unfindable...does it exist? Is it not a chihuahua. Am I losing it?

I had this thought while rewatching TheAlmightyLoli's berserk recap/review thing. What if the current part of the manga with Guts in a cocoon is actually a way for Guts to confront the beast of darkness and become one with it in some way.

Nietzsche had this entire thing about overcoming your impulses or your bad desires in a way thay lets you reintigrate them into your life and society in a constructive way. Overall that concept in berserk usually meant Guts using his rage to help Casca instead of chasing revenge, but what if the latest chapters are meant to take that idea and push it into darker territory. When I mean merging with the beast of darkness I don't mean a happy go lucky deal where Guts somehow gets the rage inside him to cease and be fully motivated on Casca, though that could be cool, I think it's gonna be more of a blood deal. The beast will agree to yield to Guts to control the armor and his impulses fully to save Casca from Griffith, in exchange for being allowed to completely take over once she's out of his grasp to get a shot at killing Griffith. Kinda a trade, Guts getting what he wants and the beast finally taking control at the end of it all. It would definitely spell a more god of war styled, grim prophecy ending where Guts is fated to die and the story either has to let it happen or find some way to satisfyingly show that there's another way.

On that, this post was also just out of curiosity of what the community thinks the entire egg/cocoon thing is going to actually be and what it would result in?

It plays like all the time in the show dueing action scenes and the previously on segments
