Weathervanes of Fódlan: Before Battle

Byleth, Gilbert enter the scene

Gilbert

Professor, do you have a moment?
link
Of course.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

I would hear your opinion on our situation.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Given our current fighting power, what sort of challenge do you expect we pose to the Empire?
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Do we have any hope of victory?
link
Gilbert
volume_up

So, we agree. However, in order to strengthen our forces, we—

Aaaargh! Ugh, why would anyone put a barrel here?!

Annette enters the scene
link
Annette
volume_up

Ow, that really smarts... Oh! Father! I was looking for you.
link
Father?
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Yes. Annette...is my daughter.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Another stupendous fall, Annette. You are just as clumsy as ever...
link
Annette
volume_up

Wait, that's not true at all! But anyway, I have a favor to ask of you.
link
Annette
volume_up

Ow, that really smarts... Oh. Hello, Father.
link
Father?
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Another stupendous fall.
link
Annette
volume_up

As though you care about my well-being.
link
Annette
volume_up

Anyway... Professor, I'm heading out for a bit.
link
Where are you going?
link
Annette
volume_up

I was thinking of going to visit my uncle.
link
Annette
volume_up

I was a little nervous about going by myself, so I thought you could come with me, Father.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

To see my brother? Why is that, Annette?
link
Annette
volume_up

I wanna ask him to entrust me with the Hero's Relic of House Dominic.
link
Annette
volume_up

The fight from here on out is gonna be tough. I need to do whatever I can to get stronger.
link
Annette
volume_up

The best thing we can do, as far as I can tell, is to have another Hero's Relic at our disposal.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

You are not wrong, yet it will not be easy.
link
Why's that?
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Under pressure from Cornelia, House Dominic is maintaining a pro-Imperial stance.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

That makes us his enemy. Brother or no, he will not hand over a Hero's Relic to us.
link
Annette
volume_up

But he's not a bad person... And we'll never know unless we ask, right?
link
Annette
volume_up

And Mother might be there too...
link
Gilbert
volume_up

The Dominic region is, at present, enemy territory. There is no guarantee you can see them safely.
link
Annette
volume_up

You don't know anything! If that's how you're gonna be, I'll just go by myself.
link
Annette
volume_up

Fine. Be that way. It's not like I was planning to ask for your help, anyway.
link
Annette
volume_up

Professor, don't worry about me. I'll be back soon, and with a Relic, no less!
link
Annette leaves the scene
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Annette! Wait!
link
Gilbert
volume_up

She never listens. Her recklessness is so frustrating.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

She never listens. So frustrating.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

However, if she were able to retrieve the Hero's Relic, it would prove a great boon to our forces.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Perhaps I should prepare myself for the worst. I shall travel with Annette to see my brother.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Professor, might I ask you to take on a task for me?
link
Gilbert
volume_up

It is entirely possible that we shall be captured in the Dominic region. In anticipation of that...
link
Gilbert
volume_up

I would ask that you wait outside of the region, with an army at your command.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

I cannot say with confidence that we will be able to bring back the Hero's Relic without issue.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

While it pains me to ask this favor of you, I must also thank you for accepting.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

I should be able to slow Annette's departure for a short while, at the least.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Please join us when you can.
