What can I say? You got us.
link Jeralt volume_up
You rolled right over us and took out our employer. I know when it's time to raise the white flag.
link Shez volume_up
Wait, that's it? You're giving up?

We've faced you in battle many times, only to be bested at every turn.

We've faced you in battle many times, only to be bested at every turn.
link Jeralt volume_up
Yeah, you've pretty much run us out of business by now.
link Jeralt volume_up
It's not easy finding new clients in the best of times.
link Jeralt volume_up
And no matter how good our reputation is, none of it matters if we can't actually win. At this rate, I'll have to stop calling myself the Blade Breaker.
link Dimitri volume_up
In that case, what would you say to a new employer— the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus?
link Dimitri volume_up
We've crossed swords many times, and suffered great losses on both sides.
link Dimitri volume_up
We surely bear some bad blood between us. But part of me wonders if we cannot put that gruesome history behind us.
link Dimitri volume_up
Assuming, of course, it was coin—not conviction— that brought you to the Empire's side.
link Jeralt volume_up
Don't worry, words like conviction aren't even in a merc's vocabulary.
link Jeralt volume_up
But if we do join up with you, I can't imagine there will be much avoiding the Knights of Seiros.
link Jeralt volume_up
The problem is, me and the archbishop have a...bit of a past together. I'd prefer to keep my distance if I can.
link Dimitri volume_up
I'll remember that. The church has stationed themselves in the town of Camulus, within Blaiddyd territory.
link Dimitri volume_up
We'll be sure to keep you away from there, and I promise to warn you should Lady Rhea ever visit our encampment.
link Dimitri volume_up
Ah, and I'll place you in a separate unit should we ever fight alongside the knights themselves.
link Dimitri volume_up
Are those conditions agreeable? We could use your strength among our ranks, if you're willing to join.
link Shez volume_up
Yeah, you should join us! I mean, by now we all know firsthand how strong you are.
link Shez volume_up
Yeah, you should join us! I mean, by now we all know firsthand how strong you are.
link Shez volume_up
And sure, there might be some folks here and there who have reservations about you fighting on our side.
link Shez volume_up
And sure, there might be some folks here and there who have reservations about you fighting on our side.

But they'll definitely come around once they see how dependable you are.

link Jeralt volume_up
What do you say? I doubt the Empire will have any jobs for us after all of this.
link Jeralt volume_up
No better time for a fresh start.
link Byleth volume_up
I agree.
link Byleth volume_up
I agree.
link Byleth volume_up
And you, Alois? It might be strange, being back on the same side as your old knight friends.
link Byleth volume_up
And you, Alois? It might be strange, being back on the same side as your old knight friends.
link Alois volume_up
I've already made my decision. I have sworn to follow this fine captain wherever he goes!
link Alois volume_up
Besides, I'm sure my allies will welcome me back with... Er, well, not with open arms. They'll welcome me back with crossed arms!
link Jeralt volume_up
Well, I guess that's that. Just tell us when we start.
link Jeralt volume_up
I'll go talk to the group and smooth things over. You two, stay here with the client.
link Byleth volume_up
Got it, thanks.
link Byleth volume_up
Got it, thanks.
link Alois volume_up
Understood, Captain!
link Dimitri volume_up
We have a good bit of smoothing over to do on our end as well. Let's get to it.
