As the eldest members of their respective parties (Besides Melia possibly Riki in Dunban's case), these swordsmen serve as both a mentor and brother figure to the main character. They hold the lives of the party as one of (if not the) their highest priorities, but they do go about it in drastically different ways. To cut spoilers short, Dagran would have been the end result of Dunban taking his revenge on Mumkhar WAY too far.

There's also the whole connection of their games being linked through Operation Rainfall.
