If this is how you're gonna approach the next battle,
I'd better go buy some white cloth so we can start
[cdb]sewing our surrender flags.

Sorry. I was lost in thought for a second there.
Ask what's on her mind.
Attempt to cheer them all up.
You don't say. What's got you down?
You don't say. What's got you down?
I just never imagined we'd all be fighting together
[cdb]here in Duscur.
OK, so a margrave, a paladin, and a dark bishop walk
[cdb]into a tavern...

I appreciate the thought, but I don't need cheering
[cdb]up right now.
Honestly, I was just thinking about how we've all
[cdb]come here to Duscur in order to fight.
You come back here often, right, Dedue? I have
[cdb]heard His Majesty say as much on multiple occasions.
Yes.
Well, Duscur is still quite new to most of us, so we
[cdb]will definitely be depending on you!
A word, Ingrid?
It's true we shouldn't wallow in the past, but there is
[cdb]also no need for false cheer.
Sure—but considering who we're going up against,
[cdb]it's not like we've got happy days ahead.
We'll be fighting a Duscur militia, right?

Yeah, we've been asked to put down an insurrection—
[cdb]some sort of internal disagreement.
Duscur is divided.
Some seek peace with Faerghus. Others reject it.
Things have been getting better between our two
[cdb]lands of late, but there are still plenty of folks who
[cdb]can't let the old grudges go.
Hey, I get it. A lot of these people lost everything.
Hey, I get it. A lot of these people lost everything.
His Majesty still seeks to make amends. He's come
[cdb]here for speeches countless times.
Our activities today are part of that effort.
Well, you still seem awfully gloomy if that's all this is.
Well, you still seem awfully gloomy if that's all this is.
I mean, I get that this is a place where important folks
[cdb]died, but that's not exactly unusual, you know?
I mean, I get that this is a place where important folks
[cdb]died, but that's not exactly unusual, y'know?
There's more.
The leader of this insurrection aided the people who
[cdb]killed the late king all those years ago.
So we're not just here to put down some random
[cdb]rioters. Our real task is to arrest the leader and
[cdb]bring him back to Fhirdiad.
That man played a key role in the Tragedy of Duscur.
And he's responsible for Glenn's death.
Wait, hold on. This guy's from Duscur, right?
I thought they had nothing to do with all that.
Wait, hold on. This guy's from Duscur, right?
I thought they had nothing to do with all that.
The vast majority did not.
But a few did, even if they weren't the brains behind
[cdb]the whole thing.
We always knew some from Duscur were involved—
[cdb]as guides, if nothing else.
And the boar has been working with Duscur's
[cdb]leadership to find out who they were.
Sounds like the word got out. But still, inciting a
[cdb]rebellion seems like a pretty last-ditch effort to
[cdb]avoid justice.

...
Will you be able to stay your hand, Ingrid?
I will honor His Majesty's wishes. This leader has
[cdb]information we need, so we have to take him alive.
No matter how much I may want to do otherwise.
We'll uncover the truth and punish whoever is guilty.
That will have to suffice as my revenge.
I think there are a lot of people who'd like a crack at
[cdb]this guy—which is why we're here and a certain
[cdb]someone isn't.
His Majesty placed faith in us. We can't let him down.
Right.
...
Lift their spirits.
Leave them be.
If you three keep acting like you're going to a funeral,
[cdb]your troops are gonna follow suit. Snap out of it
[cdb]already! Hold those heads up high!

You're right. We're here as representatives of
[cdb]the...king.
And we can't afford to lose this battle.
Well then.
Uh...
Uh...
Don't worry. Once the battle starts, we won't have
[cdb]time to feel sorry for ourselves.
