All right, let's begin our council.
link Edelgard volume_up
As you've no doubt heard from our scouts, the path from here to Derdriu will be fraught with difficulties.
link Hubert volume_up
The Alliance has constructed fortalices and palisades, and laid other traps to slow our progress.
link Hubert volume_up
In addition, they are plotting ambushes at key positions along the way.
link Hubert volume_up
Needless to say, we will not be able to avail ourselves of the direct route.
link Dorothea volume_up
But if we try to dance around all their traps, we'll never make it in time.
link Linhardt volume_up
Yes, but this is Count Bergliez we're talking about. He could probably stretch his soldiers a few extra days through sheer force of will.
link Hubert volume_up
I would normally write off such an idea as lunacy, but sadly, it will likely come to that.
link Hubert volume_up
We have made attempts to smuggle provisions to Count Bergliez through holes in the enemy lines, but this has met with little success.
link Bernadetta volume_up
They must be so hungry... I know just how that feels.
link Bernadetta volume_up
The struggle to get food when all you want to do is hide under your covers? Hello, old friend.
link Ferdinand volume_up
I mean no offense, but if time is truly so short, why do we waste it dithering in council? We should embark on our rescue mission straightaway!
link Shez volume_up
Yeah, what're we waiting for? We're their only hope!
link Shez volume_up
Yeah, what're we waiting for? We're their only hope!
link Caspar volume_up
I agree! Less talking, more saving!
link Edelgard volume_up
Calm down, all of you. Such rash action is exactly what Claude is counting on.

How did Hubert put it again? "We're here to break their siege, not fall prey to one."

link Petra volume_up
I agree. A hunter must never be losing sight of their calmness.
link Edelgard volume_up
Well said. Let's not allow Claude to wind us up.
link Monica volume_up
So we must take the safe route, but do so as quickly as possible.
link Monica volume_up
A "best of both worlds" situation, I suppose. Understood.
link Edelgard volume_up
Good. With that decided, let's move on and discuss our preferred formation...
