Jeralt and Byleth have been hired to clear out poachers near Sauin Village. They're joined by Leonie, who's eager to defend the village she calls home.

The hostages must be further in. Maybe we can draw the bad guys away from them first.
link Leonie volume_up
A fine plan, Captain! Once we've done so, we can easily rescue the hostages!
link Jeralt volume_up
Here we go, then. Let's make some noise and get their attention!
link Jeralt volume_up
How many decades has it been since I was here last? Where does the time go?
link Alois volume_up
I know what you mean, Captain! Though not literally of course, as I don't believe I was with you at the time.
link Jeralt volume_up
We were dealing with poachers the last time we were here, too. Remember?
Byleth volume_up
Can't say I do.
Byleth volume_up
Can't say I do.
link Jeralt volume_up
Wait, now I remember! None of you were with me the last time I came here!
link Alois volume_up
That makes sense. He would've been too young, and I was with the Knights of Seiros.

Merchant volume_up
Hey, we're being raided! Don't just stand there with your mouths hanging open— attack!
link Jeralt volume_up
Well, we've drawn them out. Now's our chance to rescue the hostages.
link Leonie volume_up
OK, let's take care of any enemies who held back and rescue those hostages.
link Leonie volume_up
Captain Jeralt taught me how to determine the flow of battle by capturing key points on the battlefield. He's the best!
Shez volume_up
I didn't realize Jeralt was into strategy. Always struck me as more of a "hit 'em until they stop moving" sort of guy.

link Leonie volume_up
Oh, he's strategic when he needs to be— underhanded, even. He does whatever it takes to win.
??? volume_up
Hey, you're Leonie! From Sauin, right? Wow, you've really grown up. Thanks for the help!
link Leonie volume_up
Haha! I'm surprised you recognized me. Though maybe I don't look all that different.
link Jeralt volume_up
Guess we should mop up the rest of them, huh?
link Leonie volume_up
Please, Captain!
link Leonie volume_up
When I first met the captain, I was a weak little village girl, and now I'm a mercenary. I really have come a long way.
Shez volume_up
You? Weak? That's hard to imagine.
Shez volume_up
You? Weak? That's hard to imagine.
link Leonie volume_up
Looking good!
link Jeralt volume_up
Don't get cocky!
link Alois volume_up
I think of you and Leonie as my siblings. All of us were raised by Jeralt, after all!
Byleth volume_up
Which would make you...what, Alois? Our older brother?
Byleth volume_up

They sure put up a fight.
link Leonie volume_up
But the Jeralt school of warfare remains undefeated!
link Jeralt volume_up
Looks like everyone from the village is OK. Just have to get them to a safe place now.
Citizen volume_up
No way we're just gonna let you walk outta here! Get 'em!
link Jeralt volume_up
I almost admire how persistent they are.
link Leonie volume_up
Just one more!
link Leonie volume_up
We did it! We saved all the hostages!
link Leonie volume_up
The hostages are in danger!
link Jeralt volume_up
You've become quite the mercenary. Seems like only yesterday, you were just a little kid.
link Leonie volume_up
I know it seems like yesterday to you, but I've done a lot of living since then.
link Leonie volume_up
Captain... Was it too much work taking me on as an apprentice?
link Jeralt volume_up
Nah. I mean, I gotta do something to fill the time, right?
link Jeralt volume_up
You know, you were a pretty good apprentice. No matter how much I rambled on about this or that, you still hung on my every word.
link Leonie volume_up
Well, I didn't know how to write, so the only way to remember your lessons was to concentrate as hard as I could!
link Leonie volume_up
Get 'em where they're weak and be done with it! Wasted energy benefits no one!
link Jeralt volume_up
Another of my lessons—and a founding principle of the Jeralt school of warfare.
link Jeralt volume_up
That reminds me—how's your old man?
link Leonie volume_up
As poor as ever, but he's healthy and happy. I remember how the two of you used to drink until the sun came up... Hehe!
link Jeralt volume_up
I think we're about done here.
??? volume_up
Come to kill some poachers in the name of justice, huh? Well, you meddlers shoulda minded yer own business!
link Leonie volume_up
That must be the leader. Let's make him pay!
link Jeralt volume_up
The Sauin elder must've had a real headache on his hands dealing with all these poachers.
link Leonie volume_up
But the elder has a good relationship with Count Gloucester, so he responded right away.
link Jeralt volume_up
You should pack it in already—you're dealing with the Blade Breaker here.
??? volume_up
Wait. You're Jeralt?!
link Leonie volume_up
You did it, Captain!
link Jeralt volume_up
We did it, Leonie.
link Jeralt volume_up
OK, now we're really done. Let's beat it.
link Leonie volume_up
Yes, sir!
??? volume_up
No... Please...
link Jeralt volume_up
We were too late. What'd we even come here for...
