Personality
Siegfried is a man who won't stop until he achieved his goals. If he wanted something to be done, he will do it. Some think of him as cocky, others thought of him as a determined person.
Back then, Siegfried tried to isolate himself to correct the mistake which he had done a decade ago. He wanted none of the helping hands of everyone who offered it to him for it was his burden to bear alone.
Having Soul Edge destroyed, Siegfried had felt that his quest was finished and his redemption achieved.
What he had not expect though was his sins to be forgiven as Hilde gave him a pardon for it. For that he was grateful.
Background/History
Siegfried and Nightmare clashed swords for one last time. Upon colliding, both Soul calibur and Soul Edge were both destroyed. Soul Edge's destruction though didn't caused Nightmare to fall and thus continued to engage the fatigued knight.
But just before Nightmare could even lay a finger to him, Hilde suddenly appeared and stabbed the Azure Knight with her spear, killing him in the process.
You have brought an end to the evil that was born upon me. For that, I thank you... Now I have nothing more to regret... Now kill me and bring and end to it all...
True warriors think nothing of themselves but for others... You have sacrificed everything to atone for your sins and demonstrated true valor. Now that everything has come to an end, I, Hildegard Von Krone declare that you Siegfried Schtauffen, be forgiven for your sins.
Those last five words were the words that Siegfried didn't thought he will ever hear from someone. Grateful for her kindness, the knight pledged his sword for her to be her sworn ally.
Though the princess offered him to stay with her people, Siegfried refused. Instead, he went back home to his village and live with his mother.
Upon his arrival at home, he found that his house was empty and nobody was home. When he asked the villagers about her, he found out that she had died a couple of years ago because of depression.
He then found out that his father's remains have also been found and was laid to rest next to her mother at the cemetery. He visited them and could not help but feel guilty for their deaths.
"I'm so sorry... for everything Mother... Father... I hope that someday, you could forgive me..."
Seeing that sunlight was fading, Siegfried decided to spend the night at their house for the last time because, he had no more reason to stay there.
During his slumber, he saw a dream about his parents telling him that it was not his fault that they died and tell him to not worry about it. They only wanted for him to be happy and do what he desires.
The next day, Siegfried decided to leave for Wolfkrone. But just as he left his house, he encountered some of his former gang members from Schwarzwind. They heard that he came back a couple of days back.
After he told them about his past including becoming the Azure Knight and how he vanquish that mistake, Siegfried thought that they would kill him for the sins he had committed, especially for deserting them after the ambush seven years ago.
But instead of the cold hard edge of the sword slashing his torso, he felt something soft and warm on his shoulder. It was a pat from one of them. They understood what he had gone through after realizing that he had killed his own father. But the past had been done and no one could do anything about but to move on.
They then asked what he planned to do next. Siegfried told them about what Hilde and the Kingdom of Wolfkrone and how he owe her a lot. Valuing what they had in the past, the men decided to help him out even though Siegfried told them that it would be dangerous.
Suddenly one of them had an idea. Since most of the old gang were there, why don't they bring the old gang back not as thieves, but mercenaries. Everybody including Siegfried, agreed. Another member suggested that he would go out to spread the word to the others or recruit new members.
That afternoon, almost everybody from the old gang with a couple of greenhorns with them arrived at the Schtauffen house. Siegfried then told them what their agenda was.
The next day, the newly reformed Schwarzwind left for Wolfkrone to seal their alliance with them. Upon their arrival, they found that
Wolfkrone was broken down and the land was now a part of The Holy Romanian Empire.
Suddenly, they encountered a former citizen of the kingdom telling them that Hilde had gone out on a journey to return Wolfkrone to her former glory.
Dissapointed, Siegfried and the gang decided to go back to the Black Forest and establish a fortress there. For a year and a half, the Schwarzwind became a group that establish peace and justice in the land and became popular to neighboring kingdoms. With their popularity, came respect and adoration from the people.
One day, a news came to Siegfried that Hilde had gone to Ostrheinsburg to search for Soul Calibur. It made him think. Why would Hilde want the Holy sword when it had been destroyed? Suddenly, a disturbing thought struck him. If Hilde was looking for Soul Calibur, that means that Soul Edge was whole once again.
Without hesitating, Siegfried told his closest friend about Hilde and that he will leave the gang for a while to help Hilde out. After all it was the least the he could do for her.
With that, he entrusted the gang to him and went off.
