Hubert falls in battle.

Hubert
volume_up

That's as far as I go... I'll withdraw...for now.

Hanneman falls in battle.

Hanneman
volume_up

If I die for this new Empire...then I have no...regrets.

Manuela falls in battle.

Manuela
volume_up

So, the Silver Maiden...will be my last stage? Heh... You know, that's...that's not too bad.

Dimitri
volume_up

Surprise reinforcements... We must defeat them.
link
Hubert
volume_up

It seems we are just in time. Any later, and Arianrhod may have been lost.
Hubert
volume_up

Her Majesty was right to send me here.
Dimitri
volume_up

Hubert. So, you have come here in command of extra troops from the Imperial capital...
Dimitri
volume_up

I had hoped to take the fort while it was poorly defended, but now...
Dimitri
volume_up

Well, there is nothing to be done. We must defeat him and then take Arianrhod.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Traps have been set throughout Arianrhod to repel invaders who make it inside.
Dimitri
volume_up

If I remember correctly, there should be devices somewhere that let you deactivate the traps. However...
Dimitri
volume_up

Arianrhod has been in Imperial hands for a while now. They may have changed how things work.
Dimitri
volume_up

But there's no point in dawdling. Let's just make a point to disable any devices we come across.
link
Hubert
volume_up

Did you really think such a transparent maneuver would find me unprepared?
Hubert
volume_up

Let this be your final lesson. Now!
link
Dimitri
volume_up

He hid troops in that alleyway, did he? We'll just have to meet them head-on!
link
Hubert
volume_up

I suppose you thought defeating the troops outside the castle first would demoralize the ones within.
Hubert
volume_up

Not such a bad idea, honestly. But you failed to account for me.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

So what if they disable some old contraptions. It's no loss to us.
Hanneman
volume_up

The city's defenses are under my exclusive control.
Dimitri
volume_up

So, the system has been modified. The person operating the traps must be elsewhere...
link
Imperial General
volume_up

No luck, buddy. All the city's defenses are under my control!
Dimitri
volume_up

So, the system has been modified. The person operating the traps must be elsewhere...
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Professor Hanneman... That should take care of the traps.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

That should take care of the traps.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Professor Manuela... At least we have stopped the reinforcements.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Good. We've cut them off from their reinforcements.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

If Hubert is gone, then I see no reason to remain. Time to go.
link
Manuela
volume_up

I've never been one to fight to the death. I'll make a graceful exit while I still can.
link
Imperial General
volume_up

Lord Hubert was defeated?! Hm... Retreat! Sound the retreat!
link
Dimitri
volume_up

The Empire troops are withdrawing... This is it.
Dimitri
volume_up

We failed to get Hubert, but at least we have recaptured Arianrhod.
Dimitri
volume_up

Let's clean up the wreckage and return to Garreg Mach.
Dimitri
volume_up

Well done, everyone! The day is ours!

You successfully completed the Paralogue and earned a battalion!

Battle Dialog

Attack: Byleth - Hubert

Hubert
volume_up

First Gronder Field, and now here.
Hubert
volume_up

You certainly have a talent for getting in our way.
link

Attack: Byleth - Hanneman

Hanneman
volume_up

In the end, I may not have gleaned your secret.
Hanneman
volume_up

Yet, even if I die, someone will follow my work, and another after that. Such is the way of scholarship.
link

Attack: Byleth - Manuela

Manuela
volume_up

Oh dear, Professor. Fate can be so cruel.
Manuela
volume_up

Spilling the blood of your students with your own hands... How can you carry on after that?
link

Attack: Dimitri - Manuela

Manuela
volume_up

You've grown into a fine, handsome man, Dimitri. Bit of a shame you've also become a violent beast.
Manuela
volume_up

Men like you make the Silver Maiden cry.
Dimitri
volume_up

Oh? I suppose it is a shame, Professor Manuela.
Dimitri
volume_up

Perhaps I should have appeared before you holding a bouquet of flowers, rather than the weapon that will end your life.

Attack: Enemy Units - Hubert

Hubert
volume_up

Arianrhod is a crucial asset to the Empire. You will not pry it from our grasp.
link

Attack: Manuela - Dorothea

Dorothea
volume_up

Manuela? It's not like you to show up anywhere sober. What's the occasion?
Manuela
volume_up

I thought maybe we could talk. I could help you see the error of your ways.
Manuela
volume_up

Or we could just try to kill each other over what we believe in. You ready to do this?
Dorothea
volume_up

No... But let's get to it.
link

Attack: Enemy Units - Hanneman

Hanneman
volume_up

For the sake of Edelgard, I shall take the liberty of helping.
link

Attack: Enemy Units - Manuela

Manuela

I hate to have to kill someone I know...but I have no choice.
