Imperial Army Camp (Hevring Territory)
link Jeralt volume_up
Let me get this straight. If they break through Hevring land, there'll be nothing to stop the Kingdom's army from rolling straight to the capital.
link Randolph volume_up
That's right. The seat of Hevring's power, Mozghuz, lies east of here, past the bottleneck in the Oghma Mountains.
link Randolph volume_up
It's essentially on Enbarr's doorstep. The western gateway to the seat of power.
link Randolph volume_up
Count Hevring and his men will make their last stand there.
link Randolph volume_up
That is, if the lions of Faerghus can get through us first. And of course, we will make every possible effort to defeat them, for whatever that's worth.
link Jeralt volume_up
Never a good sign when you're calling something your last stand.
link Randolph volume_up
Indeed. And we've lost far too many of our most formidable generals, including Marquis Vestra.
link Randolph volume_up
I've not the slightest idea what's befallen our forces at the capital, nor in the east for that matter.
link Jeralt volume_up
Yes, the whole army's been feeling a little off lately. Thankfully you and your squadron still have your heads on straight.
link Randolph volume_up
It's a sad state of affairs out there. Hardly any dependable leaders remain.
link Randolph volume_up
Instead we're left with those who take pride in senseless looting and slaughter, or compete to see who can reduce more villages to ash.
link Randolph volume_up
Each and every one of them handpicked by His Excellency, the regent.
link Jeralt volume_up
Are you sure you should be spilling secrets like that?
link Randolph volume_up
It's all right. I'd like you to have the full picture.
link Randolph volume_up
Your company holds the key to victory in your hands. And with it, our very lives.
link Randolph volume_up
Oh, but keep all that under wraps if you would. It would bring the morale of my troops crashing to new lows were that to get out.
link Jeralt volume_up
Usually mercs are backup for an army, not full-on replacements. But it is what it is.
link Jeralt volume_up
In any case, we'll get the job done so long as you're paying.
link Randolph volume_up
Jeralt.
link Randolph volume_up
Should I perish in this fight, you can consider your contract terminated.
link Randolph volume_up
You'll be free to stop supporting the Empire in its foul descent into depravity.

Randolph...

You feeling any better?
link Jeralt volume_up
I have to say, I'm still not used to this new look of yours.
link Byleth volume_up
That makes two of us—but it will bother me less once I'm on the battlefield.

If you say so.
link Jeralt volume_up
With the war in the state it's in, the Kingdom is throwing everything they've got at this thing.
link Jeralt volume_up
I don't know if it's that or something else, but I've got a bad feeling—so watch yourself out there.
link Byleth volume_up
I will. You do the same.
link Byleth volume_up
I will. You do the same.
link Jeralt volume_up
Oh, right. I've been meaning to give you this...
link Jeralt volume_up
Never used to be without it. Cuts like a dream. I want you to have it.
link Jeralt volume_up
Swords like this are given to captains of the Knights of Seiros, and mine was just collecting dust in the band's convoy.
link Byleth volume_up
That's right. Alois mentioned you used to serve there.
link Byleth volume_up
That's right. Alois mentioned you used to serve there.
link Jeralt volume_up
That was a lifetime ago. I don't plan on swinging this sword ever again.
link Byleth volume_up
But are you sure you want to give it away? It must be quite special to you.

I'd be happiest seeing you get some use out of it.
link Byleth volume_up
Thank you. I'll do that.
link Byleth volume_up
Thank you. I'll do that.
link Jeralt volume_up
Be good to it, all right?
