Interesting chapter, it seems we're just getting to know more about Griffith and his 'Kingdom' you could say. It's odd as we've built him up to be this incredibly evil bastard, but lately he has only shown his 'good' side. I'm curious what his true intentions are or how he will act once he accomplishes his goal. He is one of the God Hand after all.
The thing is that Griffith basically did accomplished his goal now. The reason he accepted that red egg thing that made him what he is is because he always wanted to create his own kingdom. I remember how he said that all the people that died for that cause will be wasted if he gave up now so more will be sacrificed for him to get there etc when he was dreaming about the road full of corpses that let to a castle.
So now that he has his great kingdom he basically has fulfilled his dream.
