Move the injured soldiers to the rear! All those who can fight, reform your ranks!
link Ferdinand volume_up
As soon as we are prepared, we will launch another attack on Derdriu!
link Bernadetta volume_up
Another one? Why don't we just, um...wait for Count Bergliez?
link Ferdinand volume_up
Our enemy is exhausted, while we have plenty of soldiers who are unharmed and able to fight. This is the most opportune time to strike.

Lord Ferdinand.
link Ferdinand volume_up
Ah, General Ladislava. We have been waiting for you. Has Count Bergliez arrived?
link Ladislava volume_up
No, he has yet to depart the Empire. There has been some suspicious activity in southern Leicester that has made the minister wary to proceed.
link Ferdinand volume_up
Suspicious activity, you say? Do we have any idea what the Alliance is plotting?
link Ladislava volume_up
Not to my knowledge, sir. As much as it pains me to say it, perhaps we should fall back until we know more.
link Ferdinand volume_up
Hm. And yet here we stand, on the precipice of victory...
link ??? volume_up
General Ladislava! Our scouts have returned!
link Ladislava volume_up
And what do they report?
link ??? volume_up
Gloucester soldiers have launched a surprise attack on the Great Bridge of Myrddin! We've lost control of the bridge!
link ??? volume_up
We anticipate that House Gloucester and Ordelia's forces will soon seize the lands that belonged to House Phlegethon!
link Ferdinand volume_up
...
link Ladislava volume_up
So, Count Gloucester was deceiving us all along.
link Bernadetta volume_up
What?! We've been tricked? Oh no... No, no, no! We're doomed!
link Ferdinand volume_up
It seems we have blundered right into an Alliance trap.
link Bernadetta volume_up
We have to retreat! Get out of here! Find someplace safe to hide!
link Ferdinand volume_up
Calm yourself, Bernadetta. A leader must project confidence for the good of their soldiers.
link Ferdinand volume_up
We shall begin an orderly march to the Great Bridge of Myrddin at once.
link Ferdinand volume_up
Though the enemy may give chase, stopping is not an option. We must maintain our course for the Empire, and let nothing deter us.
link Ladislava volume_up
Understood. I am with you, wherever you may take us.
link Ferdinand volume_up
I apologize for leading you both into this debacle.
link Ferdinand volume_up
For now, all we can do is pray that any part of our host makes it back to the Empire safely.
link Ferdinand volume_up
Forgive me, Edelgard. I may not be able to keep my promise to you after all.
