0. Well? What do you think? I believe there is a very [cdb]good chance it will work.
1. Perhaps, Lady Edelgard. But is that chance not [cdb]outweighed by the danger of matters going awry?
2. We have managed to walk the knife's edge so far, [cdb]but what you are suggesting is open hostility.
3. If they so much as catch wind of our intentions, [cdb]things will go sideways very quickly.
4. Regardless, this is our last opportunity to save her. Frankly, it's a miracle we even have the chance.
5. I thought you once proclaimed not to believe [cdb]in miracles, Lady Edelgard.
6. And I don't—at least not the kind one has to [cdb]sit around and wait for.
7. But right now, everyone is exactly where we need [cdb]them. Her, the bandits, the string-pullers...and the [cdb]perfect instructor with the perfect mission.
8. I'm going to make this miracle happen, [cdb]and I will do so for our future.
9. Hm.
10. Then we'd best have a plan in place to finish the job [cdb]in case they catch on.
11. I expected you to burn a few bridges, but this plan [cdb]would be akin to setting half the countryside on fire.
12. Which is exactly why I'm counting on you, Hubert. And why I'm grateful to have you by my side.
13. Welcome to the Black Eagle House. I'm pleased you selected us.
14. Whoa, wait, what? You're a student now?
15. And not only that, you're one of us? That's great!
16. Wait. Stop! I don't know this person! Oh, why are there so many new faces?
17. That's what you get for skipping this year's first [cdb]field excursion, Bern.
18. A lot happened—there was even a bandit attack. Did you really not hear about any of this?
19. Bandits? Nrgh, now I'm extra glad I skipped out!
20. I must say, the church took a bold step in enrolling [cdb]you—a decision which I, of course, fully support.
21. You helped Edelgard, and we stand to learn quite [cdb]a bit from one so skilled.
22. Yes, I have eagerness to examine the fighting of [cdb]mercenaries! We should be sparring, one versus one.
23. If anyone needs me, I'll be asleep in— Wait, hold on. Do you have a Crest? Did Professor Hanneman even [cdb]check?
24. Oh, he checked, all right. Sorry to say I'm [cdb]certifiably Crest-less.
25. Oh, he checked, all right. Sorry to say I'm [cdb]certifiably Crest-less.
26. Strange. You definitely seem the type, but I suppose I'm just imagining it.
27. And now you know the rest of our house. As you already met some of us in camp, I assume you knew what you were getting into.
28. We may not be perfect, but we support each other as [cdb]best we can. Please try your utmost to get along with [cdb]everyone.
29. Here approaches Professor Jeritza. That makes all [cdb]of us.
30. Remember your mission?
31. We are to eliminate the remaining members of [cdb]the Iron King's Thieves that attacked our camp.
32. The chief, Kostas, has already been struck down, [cdb]and now only a scattering of brigands remain.
33. Even with our limited experience, we should be able [cdb]to defeat them handily.
34. Good. Prepare yourself.
35. Of course, Profe— Oh. He's gone.
36. Of course, Profe— Oh. He's gone.
37. So it would seem. Right then, we'd better get [cdb]all of our waterfowl in a row.
38. Wait, but I... I need to tell the professor... I can't participate?
39. Oh, good work, Bernie! Why didn't you speak [cdb]up sooner?
40. I know what you mean. I never even got the chance [cdb]to break out my best "Leave it to me, Professor!"
41. He's a real tough nut, that's for sure. Says just as [cdb]much as he has to, then makes tracks.
42. Agree.
43. Raise an eyebrow.
44. Well, the less you say, the greater your mystique.
45. Well, the less you say, the greater your mystique.
46. True enough. There's not much charm in someone [cdb]who talks your ear off at every opportunity.
47. Strength and silence don't always go [cdb]hand-in-hand, though.
48. Strength and silence don't always go [cdb]hand-in-hand, though.
49. Indeed, just look at Caspar's father, Count Bergliez.
50. When that man shouts an order, it is so loud that the [cdb]seas themselves part and the clouds retreat.
51. Whatever the case, I expect all Black Eagles to [cdb]participate in this mission—including you, Bernadetta. You can do this.
52. And I look forward to seeing our mercenary friend [cdb]here in action.
53. Express quiet confidence.
54. Fire off a quip.
55. I won't let you down.
56. I won't let you down.
57. Careful, Edelgard. If you set me loose out there, [cdb]there won't be any bandits left for you.
58. Careful, Edelgard. If you set me loose out there, [cdb]there won't be any bandits left for you.
