Slave Knight Gael is a character from Dark Souls III who becomes the final boss of The Ringed City expansion released in 2017. In his introduction he demands the player's Dark Soul as pigment for the Painter's new world, repeating a plea he has carried across ages of searching. The scene became one of the series' most quoted boss moments, and short clips of the line spread through Souls community edits and meme videos. Its mix of sorrow, obsession and threat keeps it useful far beyond the game.
