1. I'm sure Dimitri's equally astounded by this [cdb]interruption.
2. If it had only happened a few days later, we could've [cdb]been well on our way to ending the war by now.
3. It's entirely possible that whoever's doing this doesn't [cdb]want that to happen.
4. Agree it can't be a coincidence.
5. Give it some thought.
6. It's too big a coincidence. All of this happened right [cdb]when we were about to gain control of the capital.
7. It's too big a coincidence. All of this happened right [cdb]when we were about to gain control of the capital.
8. Exactly. These people were likely keeping a close eye [cdb]on everything, waiting for the most opportune [cdb]moment to strike.
9. I can't fathom why anyone would want this war to [cdb]continue.
10. I can't fathom why anyone would want this war to [cdb]continue.
11. I know it's just personal conjecture right now.
12. But if those who slither in the dark are behind this, [cdb]then their goal is to plunge all of Fódlan into chaos.
13. Either that or they plan to conquer it while we're all [cdb]exhausted from the war.
14. Then we can't afford to be fighting a war right now. Stopping them needs to be our top priority.
15. Then we can't afford to be fighting a war right now. Stopping them needs to be our top priority.
16. The issue is we have no proof. A few educated guesses [cdb]won't convince the others to stop fighting.
17. We need definitive evidence. I only hope we'll find [cdb]some here.
18. [HERO_MF], I must apologize for [cdb]interrogating you the way I did.
19. In my defense, you do possess the same power as [cdb]those who slither in the dark. It is hard to believe [cdb]you would have no relation to them.
20. Are you not curious to find out if you do?
21. Admit you're curious.
22. Claim you're not curious.
23. I'd be lying if I said it didn't bug me. We're talking [cdb]about my identity, after all.
24. I'd be lying if I said it didn't bug me. We're talking [cdb]about my identity, after all.
25. Not really. It's not like I'm gonna die if I don't know.
26. Not really. It's not like I'm gonna die if I don't know.
27. I would be desperate to discover my true identity if I [cdb]were in your position.
28. But no matter. Nothing will change the fact that you [cdb]are our ally.
29. Claude says that Tomas's group is involved in these [cdb]riots, but...
30. Most of the people causing trouble are just regular [cdb]old bandits, right?
31. I'm more worried about the fact that there were so [cdb]many bandits lurking around Leicester in the [cdb]first place.
32. Agree it's a problem.
33. Tell her it's always been this way.
34. I'm sure a lot of people haven't been able to find [cdb]decent work recently.
35. I'm sure a lot of people haven't been able to find [cdb]decent work recently.
36. Yeah. Maybe more people have turned to stealing [cdb]because they lost their homes and fields in the war.
37. There are always bandits prowling around wherever [cdb]you go. You just don't notice them.
38. There are always bandits prowling around wherever [cdb]you go. You just don't notice them.
39. If that's the case, then we have a major problem on [cdb]our hands. It makes me shudder to even think of it.
40. I think we'll see a lot fewer of these incidents once we [cdb]make it easier for people to find work.
41. House Ordelia was finally starting to make a [cdb]comeback after our alliance with the Empire, [cdb]and now this.
42. If those who slither in the dark are behind this, I swear I will make them suffer!
43. Try to calm her down.
44. Apologize.
45. Let's just take a deep breath, Lysithea. We need to [cdb]remain calm in times like these.
46. Let's just take a deep breath, Lysithea. We need to [cdb]remain calm in times like these.
47. What? How can you of all people remain calm? You could be related to them, you know.
48. I'm sorry. I might be connected to them somehow.
49. I'm sorry. I might be connected to them somehow.
50. Why are you apologizing? Even if that's the case, [cdb]it's not like you're helping them.
51. In any event, we need to find out who's pulling the [cdb]strings. Once we capture their leader, we'll make [cdb]them confess.
52. The bandits have spread as far as Hrym [cdb]territory, right?
53. There's never been rioting on both sides of Airmid River simultaneously.
54. Oh, but if I recall, House Ordelia and House Hrym [cdb]have suffered through a disturbance like this once [cdb]before.
55. At the time, Viscount Hrym staged an uprising, [cdb]and Count Ordelia joined her.
56. I can't imagine that bears any relation to our current [cdb]crisis, but it does give me pause.
57. After getting off the ship and walking all this way, [cdb]my legs are as strong as tree trunks! Like, really big ones!
58. I gotta start workin' my upper body to keep [cdb]everything balanced.
59. Be skeptical.
60. Scold him.
61. There's no point if you don't have anyone to show off [cdb]to. We're just fighting a bunch of bandits.
62. There's no point if you don't have anyone to show off [cdb]to. We're just fighting a bunch of bandits.
63. You shouldn't waste time working out. There are [cdb]people who need our help.
64. You shouldn't waste time working out. There are [cdb]people who need our help.
65. Don't be silly. I can't fight at my full strength if my [cdb]muscles aren't even!
66. My chest and arms are gonna be crying in pain if I [cdb]leave them out.
67. My adoptive father was waiting for me when we [cdb]arrived at the port in Edmund territory.
68. He even told me to return safely. What has gotten [cdb]into him?
69. Who knows?
70. He was showing that he cares.
71. Beats me. I'll never understand how parents think.
72. Beats me. I'll never understand how parents think.
73. Parents... Does that mean he truly thinks of me as [cdb]his daughter?
74. Isn't it pretty natural for a parent to worry about [cdb]their child? Especially if she's constantly rushing off [cdb]to battle.
75. Isn't it pretty natural for a parent to worry about [cdb]their child? Especially if she's constantly rushing off [cdb]to battle.
76. A parent... Does that mean he truly thinks of me as [cdb]his daughter?
77. He must, or else he wouldn't be worried. And I'm [cdb]sure he knows how hard you've been fighting.
78. He must, or else he wouldn't be worried. And I'm [cdb]sure he knows how hard you've been fighting.
79. I hope we can speak more next time. Though I'm not [cdb]sure what we'd even talk about.
80. If someone's starting these riots as part of some bigger [cdb]scheme, I swear I'll kill them myself.
81. Only the most sadistic villain would drag innocent [cdb]villagers into this.
82. I'm gonna make them suffer, I don't care about their [cdb]sorry excuses... Oh, wait, you probably want a chance [cdb]to question them, don't you?
83. Tell her you want to capture them.
84. Say you don't care.
85. Yeah, if they're who we think they are, then I've got a [cdb]few questions I wanna ask them.
86. Yeah, if they're who we think they are, then I've got a [cdb]few questions I wanna ask them.
87. Got it. I promise I'll track 'em down.
88. Don't worry about me. You can do whatever you [cdb]want when you find them.
89. Don't worry about me. You can do whatever you [cdb]want when you find them.
90. You sure? Then I'm gonna do just that!
91. Watch out, villains! I'm gonna take you down!
92. We almost had the Kingdom cornered, only to have [cdb]to retreat at the last second.
93. A mediocre king would never have the courage to [cdb]make such a quick decision.
94. His Majesty is truly a paragon of leadership. I am [cdb]honored to serve him.
95. What a mess. At least I know this isn't the [cdb]church's doing.
96. The Knights of Seiros would usually be the ones [cdb]fighting with everything they've got in this kind of [cdb]situation.
97. The Federation, on the other hand, accepts full [cdb]responsibility for protecting each and every one of [cdb]their citizens.
98. Now that I've cut ties with the Central Church, I can [cdb]really appreciate them taking on such a burden. I'm [cdb]grateful for it.
99. I am so utterly exhausted.
100. Not only did we have to travel from the Kingdom, [cdb]but we fought numerous battles along the way.
101. And now the war is going to drag on because of this. All one can do is sigh, really.
102. Suggest he ask for a new post.
103. Suggest he take a break.
104. You could ask Claude to give you a different position.
105. You could ask Claude to give you a different position.
106. He'd never move a former enemy like me to a cushy [cdb]position out of the way. It'd be pointless to ask.
107. You could ask Claude for a break.
108. You could ask Claude for a break.
109. I wouldn't want to risk that. I'm from the Empire. He might decide it's time for me to rest permanently.
110. Ordelia territory's taking a beating. We gotta get out [cdb]there and help them.
111. Ask him why.
112. Offer to help him out.
113. You're more worked up than usual. Do you have some [cdb]connection to Ordelia territory?
114. You're more worked up than usual. Do you have some [cdb]connection to Ordelia territory?
115. Yeah. Count Ordelia stuck his neck out for me once.
116. It's not an easy debt to repay. I only hope I'll make it [cdb]up to him one day.
117. You're right. We need to get a move on.
118. You're right. We need to get a move on.
119. You're all fired up too, huh? Good. We can tear it up [cdb]together then.
120. Doesn't all this moving around make you lose track [cdb]of where we are, [HERO_MF]?
121. Doesn't all this moving around make you lose track [cdb]of where we are, [HERO_MF]?
122. I have no clue where I am. The Alliance? No, wait, [cdb]it's the Federation now...right?
123. I have no clue where I am. The Alliance? No, wait, [cdb]it's the Federation now...right?
124. Sympathize with her.
125. Tell her where you are.
126. Yeah, I get turned around too. Sometimes I even go in [cdb]the complete opposite direction.
127. Yeah, I get turned around too. Sometimes I even go in [cdb]the complete opposite direction.
128. Oh, I'm so glad I'm not the only one!
129. Oh, I'm so glad I'm not the only one!
130. Alliance or Federation, doesn't matter. They're both Leicester. Anyway, we're on the northern side of the Airmid River now.
131. Alliance or Federation, doesn't matter. They're both Leicester. Anyway, we're on the northern side of the Airmid River now.
132. The Empire's just on the other side. But I understand [cdb]we've traveled a great deal.
133. The Empire's just on the other side. But I understand [cdb]we've traveled a great deal.
134. What? We're that close to the Empire? We're not [cdb]going to run into my father, are we?!
135. What? We're that close to the Empire? We're not [cdb]going to run into my father, are we?!
136. I am estimating there will be more fighting in the city. Not enemy soldiers, but bandits and rioters.
137. I am having a better time fighting in this situation. What about you?
138. Definitely better.
139. Definitely worse.
140. I'm better in those kinds of battles too. It's definitely [cdb]easier than fighting in a wide open field.
141. I'm better in those kinds of battles too. It's definitely [cdb]easier than fighting in a wide open field.
142. So we are the same? Then we will be finishing the [cdb]fight promptly.
143. To be honest, those kind of battles are not my strong [cdb]suit. It's much easier fighting in a wide open field.
144. To be honest, those kind of battles are not my strong [cdb]suit. It's much easier fighting in a wide open field.
145. I am not in agreement. It surprises me we are not [cdb]seeing eye to eye.
146. When the city of Nuvelle fell, it was overrun by [cdb]bandits and looters.
147. At the time, the Imperial army had been so focused [cdb]on fighting forces from Dagda that the city's guards [cdb]were practically non-existent.
148. But now... We've mobilized our forces and prioritized [cdb]aiding the people, rather than the war itself. I feel [cdb]misty-eyed with gratitude.
149. Express relief.
150. Express shock about her past.
151. That just goes to show we're nothing like the Empire. I think it's a good thing.
152. That just goes to show we're nothing like the Empire. I think it's a good thing.
153. Yes, that is exactly right. This is what the new Federation stands for.
154. I had no idea Nuvelle had gone through something so [cdb]awful. We can't let it happen again.
155. I had no idea Nuvelle had gone through something so [cdb]awful. We can't let it happen again.
156. You are exactly right. But I doubt we will have to [cdb]worry about that, given our actions here.
157. I've kinda got a bad feeling about this. How do I [cdb]describe it...
158. It's like I sense...darkness? Or something like that. It's hard to put into words.
159. Ask about the darkness.
160. Say you sense it too.
161. Darkness? You mean like...from me, for example?
162. Darkness? You mean like...from me, for example?
163. Maybe. I might.
164. Which probably means my bad feeling isn't all that [cdb]reliable.
165. To be honest, I can sense it too. Whatever it is.
166. To be honest, I can sense it too. Whatever it is.
167. Seriously?
168. Huh. But you know, I'm probably just imagining [cdb]things.
169. I imagine that after our trick with the ships, Faerghus will increase their defenses on their [cdb]eastern coast.
170. That same approach won't work again. We'll have to [cdb]come up with some other method of attack.
171. Though quelling the riots in Ordelia territory is our [cdb]first priority.
172. Who would've expected we'd be interrupted when [cdb]we were so close to finishing the fight?
173. I'm worried about everyone in Ordelia. We need to [cdb]get out there and help them as soon as we can.
174. I know I don't deserve the title anymore...
175. But a knight of Faerghus would never be so quick to [cdb]abandon the townsfolk.
176. So we're fighting bandits and scoundrels next?
177. It doesn't matter who we're up against. I'll cut them [cdb]down all the same.
178. Waver in the face of his determination.
179. Respond undaunted.
180. Oh, um... Yeah! The Ashen Demon is as determined [cdb]as ever, I see.
181. Oh, um... Yeah! The Ashen Demon is as determined [cdb]as ever, I see.
182. The name has nothing to do with it. We just have [cdb]to join together and fight with all we have.
183. You got that right. I'm not gonna let you outdo me [cdb]either. Just watch, I'll do a better job than you.
184. You got that right. I'm not gonna let you outdo me [cdb]either. Just watch, I'll do a better job than you.
185. Let's do this together, instead. Things will work out [cdb]better for the both of us that way.
186. So we're fighting bandits and scoundrels next?
187. It doesn't matter who we're up against. I'll cut them [cdb]down all the same.
188. Waver in the face of her determination.
189. Respond undaunted.
190. Oh, um... Yeah! The Ashen Demon is as determined [cdb]as ever, I see.
191. Oh, um... Yeah! The Ashen Demon is as determined [cdb]as ever, I see.
192. The name has nothing to do with it. We just have [cdb]to join together and fight with all we have.
193. You got that right. I'm not gonna let you outdo me [cdb]either. Just watch, I'll do a better job than you.
194. You got that right. I'm not gonna let you outdo me [cdb]either. Just watch, I'll do a better job than you.
195. Let's do this together, instead. Things will work out [cdb]better for the both of us that way.
196. I've slain more bandits than I care to count, but this is [cdb]a whole 'nother level.
197. They don't usually work in groups. Most do much [cdb]better working on their own.
198. So if they're cooperating with each other, it must [cdb]mean someone else is pulling the strings.
199. We don't know what we'll uncover, so keep your [cdb]guard up.
200. I thought Nader was gonna come with us, but he [cdb]stayed on the ship and went back to Almyra.
201. Apparently he convinced the Almyran soldiers not to [cdb]pillage anything while we were in the Kingdom.
202. He may seem unreasonable at first, but he's actually a [cdb]good guy. He's really changed my opinion of him.
203. I hope we cross paths again. I never got the chance to [cdb]thank him.
204. Hmm... I didn't expect this would happen. I hope the [cdb]people in Ordelia are all right.
205. I quelled many a disturbance just like this back when I was with the knights.
206. And though the place and my title may be different, I still fight for the people!
207. This situation's serious. All the rioting makes it [cdb]impossible for us merchants to go about our [cdb]business.
208. Well, make sure to stock up and do your part to stem [cdb]the chaos!
209. Wait, you think I'm trying to turn this into a [cdb]business opportunity? Why, I would never! Anyway, want to buy something?
210. Despite his failing health, Count Ordelia has been [cdb]trying to restore peace in his territory ever since we [cdb]allied with the Empire.
211. But all of that's ruined now. I cannot imagine how [cdb]devastating this must be for him.
212. Why must we suffer all these disasters?
213. The former Phlegethon territory has been jointly [cdb]ruled by other nobles since Acheron's untimely [cdb]demise.
214. But none of them can spare any troops, so it's mostly [cdb]managed by House Gloucester.
215. The former Count Gloucester is also currently taking [cdb]steps to ensure the bandits do not invade and claim Phlegethon land for their own.
216. My mother's family hails from Ordelia territory, [cdb]but I haven't been able to contact them.
217. I'm terribly worried about my grandparents. I have [cdb]no way to make sure they're safe.
218. I truly hope they're all right.
219. There's a bridge in Ordelia territory that crosses over [cdb]the Airmid River. Though it's not nearly as big as the Great Bridge of Myrddin.
220. Normally there's a checkpoint on either side to [cdb]prevent bandits from passing through.
221. But they must've taken control of it, since we've [cdb]had reports that bandits are on both sides of the river.
222. I was lucky to snag a new employer right after Acheron died.
223. Otherwise I could've easily been one of the bandits [cdb]attacking Ordelia territory right now.
224. I'm a member of the local guard in a village near here. Most of my compatriots have been killed.
225. I didn't think there was any way the Federation army [cdb]would help us because they were off fighting the war.
226. But here you are, in full force. The king didn't [cdb]abandon us after all.
227. I prayed with all the refugees who fled to the church.
228. And the goddess answered our prayers by sending the Federation army to our aid.
229. My partner died in the last battle. We'd been together [cdb]for ages...
230. Nothin' to do about it now. Captain Jeralt decided [cdb]we should work with the Federation.
231. Nothin' to do about it now. My partner decided [cdb]that we should work with the Federation.
232. I was convinced it was the right choice at the time...
233. I was sent over to help you all, but I'm amazed at how [cdb]quickly King Claude is handling the situation.
234. Forming the Federation was worth it, if only to [cdb]provide faster aid without waiting for the roundtable.
235. A region is nothing without its people, you know. The Empire could learn a thing or two from you.
236. Greetings, Captain! Something to report!
237. Well, the things to report aren't actually happening [cdb]around this gate.
238. Both shores of the Airmid River to the east are [cdb]apparently crawling with bandits!
239. Fighting to protect the people... What a great [cdb]responsibility. I hope I can help somehow.
240. Have you heard about the dance master that lives in [cdb]southwestern Hrym territory?
241. Apparently they won the White Heron Cup! Boy, [cdb]does that take me back.
242. Oh, you don't know what it is? Huh. I thought you [cdb]definitely would've heard of it.
243. Something slithers among the shadows.
244. And you—or should I say we?—are suspected of [cdb]being involved.
245. This is an opportune moment to ferret out the truth [cdb]of the matter. Don't you agree?
246. [HERO_MF]... I must apologize for [cdb]interrogating you the way I did.
