I should have never listened to that idiot... What a mistake...

Dimitri
volume_up

The Red Canyon... This is the first time I have ever been here. It's like walking through a ruin.
Dimitri
volume_up

Let's get this battle out of the way, Professor. The thieves must have already been driven back.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

So this is the Red Canyon... A ruin of sorts by the look of it. Let's end this quickly.
Edelgard
volume_up

The thieves must have been driven back. Be careful, or the cornered mice might bite us.
link
Claude
volume_up

So, this is the Red Canyon? Doesn't look red to me... Anyway, let's get things started, Teach.
Claude
volume_up

Looks like the thieves have been driven back. That's what we last heard, so no surprise there.

Kostas
volume_up

The knights chased us all the way here?!
Thief
volume_up

Chief, let's get out of here! There's no way we can win against them!
Kostas
volume_up

Shut your dumb mouth! Where would we go at this point? You can't be a thief if you fear death!
link
Dimitri
volume_up

According to our information, there is a back road to the west. Let's split up and approach from the west and the front.
Dimitri
volume_up

If we advance cleverly, we attack from both sides and gain the advantage.
Dimitri
volume_up

I'll leave the rest to you, Professor. But before all else, we'll need to cross the bridge.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Professor...I hear there's a back road to the west. Why don't we split up and attack from both the west and the front?
Edelgard
volume_up

If we advance tactfully, we can attack our enemy from both sides. I leave the rest to you.
Edelgard
volume_up

Regardless, we must cross the bridge first.
link
Claude
volume_up

I hear there's a back road to the west. How about we split up and attack from there and from the front?
Claude
volume_up

We may be able to corner the enemy by approaching from both sides.
Claude
volume_up

In any case, we need to cross the bridge first. I'll leave the details to you, Teach.

Thief
volume_up

We stole this treasure! It's all ours! There's no way we're gonna give it up to some knights!
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I know they are just thieves, but this never gets easier for me...
link
Dedue
volume_up

Still whole and sound, I hope...
link
Felix
volume_up

Finished already? I was hoping for more of a challenge.

Sylvain
volume_up

I had to do it. Don't hate me, please.

Ashe
volume_up

If I'd hesitated, that...that would've been me.

Mercedes
volume_up

I hope the goddess blesses them to rest in peace...

Annette
volume_up

I did it! See? I'm a great fighter!
link
Ingrid
volume_up

I can't relax here. We need to prepare for our next battle!
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Regrettable...but there was no other way.

Hubert
volume_up

Allow me to clean this up for you, Lady Edelgard.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

These ruffians are no match for a noble like me!
link
Linhardt
volume_up

I...I killed them. What have I done? The blood...
link
Caspar
volume_up

Are all real battles this exciting? Come on, let's get on to the next one!
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

I don't care if they're stealing! Can I go home?!
link
Dorothea
volume_up

So, is making us experience a real battle part of the church's teachings?
link
Petra
volume_up

People and beasts are as one. Calm your heart, and do not be worried about this killing.
link
Claude
volume_up

We were taken by surprise last time, but... I guess this is what we can expect when battling thieves.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

It is a noble's duty to guard the welfare of the people. Nothing personal.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

I'm sorry... I didn't have a choice.
link
Raphael
volume_up

This is my first real fight. I guess I'm pretty strong!
link
Lysithea
volume_up

A precious opportunity to test my own strength. I won't make waste of your deaths.

Hilda
volume_up

I was planning to just sit back and watch. But hey, I got one!
link
Marianne
volume_up

Please forgive me, Goddess...and save their souls...

Leonie
volume_up

This is what I've trained for!
link
Kostas
volume_up

Damn, they're coming from the west too! I can't stand these brats!
link
Dimitri
volume_up

We have defeated the thieves. We'll follow the knights' instructions for what to do next.
Dimitri
volume_up

You led us well, Professor.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Thank you for leading us, Professor. Though I suppose there was no way we could lose to a familiar foe.
Edelgard
volume_up

In any case, something about this canyon feels... inexplicably strange.
link
Claude
volume_up

Those thieves ran out of luck when they entered this canyon. They never had a chance.
Claude
volume_up

Your leadership was amazing, Teach. Let's leave the rest of this work to the knights.

Battle Dialog

Attack: Byleth - Kostas

Kostas
volume_up

Y-you're... It can't be! The mercenary from before? So what, now you're pals with the knights?
Kostas
volume_up

I'll kill you and your pesky brats!
link

Attack: Edelgard - Kostas

Kostas
volume_up

Spoiled little noble! Just die like a good little rich kid!
Edelgard
volume_up

Do you really think being born a commoner gives you the right to kill? Despicable.
link

Attack: Dimitri - Kostas

Kostas
volume_up

Spoiled little noble! Just die like a good little rich kid!
Dimitri
volume_up

Unfortunately for you, I will not oblige. You will regret all that you have done.
link

Attack: Claude - Kostas

Kostas
volume_up

Spoiled little noble! Just die like a good little rich kid!
Claude
volume_up

Being noble has nothing to do with who you are as a person or how hard your life is. Your logic is illogical!

Attack: Enemy Units - Kostas

Kostas
volume_up

Sending these brats instead of the knights means they've underestimated me! Big mistake!
