Some believe the dignity of the Empire rests on the results of the mock battle. That's an overstatement, of course.

Edelgard (Recruited)
volume_up

Still, we must do our best to prevail.

Edelgard (Recruited)
volume_up

You should take the time to learn each student's abilities. Perhaps some extra lessons and training sessions are in order?

Edelgard (Not Recruited)
volume_up

I trust you're eager to face the Black Eagles in battle.

Edelgard (Not Recruited)
volume_up

Enjoy the thrill of anticipation while it lasts. Soon you'll wish you had chosen to lead our house instead.

Dimitri

Dimitri (Recruited)
volume_up

I hear there will be a mock battle soon. We must not neglect our training.

Dimitri (Recruited)
volume_up

I trust that you will carefully study the strengths and weaknesses of each of your students, that you may provide effective guidance.

Dimitri (Recruited)
volume_up

Regardless of the results, this battle will be a great learning experience. Even so... What is the point of competition if the aim isn't to win?

Dimitri (Not Recruited)
volume_up

I heard about the upcoming mock battle. I want you to know, Professor, that I do not intend to lose. I hereby declare my intention to prevail at...

Dimitri (Not Recruited)
volume_up

Goodness, listen to me. The thrill of competition has carried me away. I won't speak so formally of a class assignment in the future.

Claude

Claude (Recruited)
volume_up

Did you hear the news, Teach? Looks like we're gonna have a good ol' mock battle between the houses!

Claude (Recruited)
volume_up

The Golden Deer House isn't exactly what you'd call an elite group just yet, so you may want to whip everyone into shape with some extra training.

Claude (Recruited)
volume_up

After all, competition is only fun if you win. To that end, I'd better prepare as well.

Claude (Not Recruited)
volume_up

Hey, Teach! I hear there's gonna be a mock battle between the houses.

Claude (Not Recruited)
volume_up

I'm not gonna lie, I'm a bit concerned about facing an elite mercenary like you. Maybe take it easy on us, what do you say?

Hubert

Hubert (Recruited)
volume_up

Dimitri and Claude are the leaders of the other two houses. Do not underestimate them.

Hubert (Recruited)
volume_up

When we take the field, it would be best not to engage the both of them at once.

Hubert (Not Recruited)
volume_up

If you continue to insist on distracting me, I will have no choice but to get rid of you.

Hubert (Not Recruited)
volume_up

Joking, of course.

Ferdinand

Ferdinand (Recruited)
volume_up

Let me tell you the provenance of our class name.

Ferdinand (Not Recruited)
volume_up

Do you know the provenance of our class name?

Ferdinand
volume_up

The eagle, that refers to the twin-headed eagle on the Adrestian Empire's coat of arms.

Ferdinand
volume_up

And black is the traditional color of the Empire's armor, hence, "Black Eagles."

link
Ferdinand
volume_up

Do you know of the Aegir family? We have long held the position of Prime Minister in the Empire.

Ferdinand
volume_up

The Empire's power lies with six noble families, my family foremost among them.

Ferdinand
volume_up

The full explanation may be time-consuming. I can give you a moment to get ready, if you would like to take notes.

Ferdinand
volume_up

All right. I will list the six great noble families.

link
Ferdinand
volume_up

There's Caspar's father, Count Bergliez, the Minister of Military Affairs. Then there's Linhardt's father, Count Hevring, the Minister of Domestic Affairs.

Ferdinand
volume_up

Bernadetta's father, Count Varley, is the Minister of Religious Affairs. Hubert's father, Marquis Vestra, is the Minister of the Imperial Household.

Ferdinand
volume_up

Finally we have Duke Gerth, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and my own father, Duke Aegir, the Prime Minister.

Ferdinand
volume_up

One day, I will take his place as the Prime Minister of the Empire.

Ferdinand
volume_up

I am more talented than anyone in my class— even Edelgard. I will lead the Empire to a bright, enlightened future.

Ferdinand

There is nothing I cannot achieve.

Wow, Jeritza sure seems strong.

Caspar
volume_up

I kinda thought he was gonna be the new professor assigned to our class.

Caspar
volume_up

After that teacher ran away during our outdoor training, I figured Jeritza was a natural replacement.

Caspar
volume_up

I was surprised when you were suddenly appointed professor instead.

Caspar

I don't think I could hold my own against Jeritza in battle. I could probably take you though.

Hi, Professor. How're you doing?

Dorothea (Recruited)

If you're not busy, would you like to join me on a little trip into town?

Dorothea (Recruited)
volume_up

If I'm cooped up in this dusty old monastery for too long, it drives me absolutely crazy.

Dorothea (Not Recruited)

Yes, it's true that I'm the only commoner in the Black Eagle House.

Dorothea (Not Recruited)

I knew that before the first day of class. Those people are simply exhausting.

Petra

Petra (Recruited)

Professor. I hope you know I am having great abilities for reading and writing. With sadness, I still have struggles with speaking.

Petra (Recruited)
volume_up

If my ways of speak...of speech are causing a burden, I hope you will have forgiveness.

Petra (Not Recruited)
volume_up

Here at the monastery, I have had many great learnings from many great people.

Petra (Not Recruited)

I am hopeful to have learnings from you too. As forever, I will do my best trying!

You should try looking around the greenhouse sometime, if the mood strikes you. Maybe something will catch your eye!

Ashe

Oh, did you come to look at the plants too? The greenhouse here is really incredible.

Ashe
volume_up

There are so many rare flowers I'd never seen back home. And herbs I never even knew existed!

Ashe
volume_up

That's normal. They all looked the same to me before I really studied them.

Ashe

My adoptive father is the real expert. He taught me everything I know about herbs, including how to tell them apart and how to make medicines.

Hey, Professor. If you've got spare time, want to join me for a trip into town?

Sylvain (Recruited)

We could try to pick up beautiful girls... Or not. I'm kidding! Don't look at me like that.

Sylvain (Recruited)
volume_up

There's an inn that serves the most amazing food. It's one of my favorite places to eat. You simply must come try it with me.

Sylvain (Not Recruited)
volume_up

Well, there's Dorothea, Hilda, and Mercedes. Lady Rhea's quite the beauty too. And I must admit, I've even checked out Professor Manuela once or twice.

Sylvain (Not Recruited)
volume_up

You know, Professor, I think I'm going to like it at the Officers Academy. There are beautiful girls as far as the eye can see...

Mercedes

Mercedes

Before I came to the Officers Academy, I attended a school of magic in the Kingdom capital.

Mercedes

That's where I met Annie! That's what I call Annette.

Oh. I guess Lorenz was at the school of magic too?

Mercedes

But Annie was always just so nice to me, even though I was older. She's my best friend in the world.

Annette

Hello, Professor! Uh, I have a teeny tiny question for you, if that's all right...

The Blue Lion House derived its name from the honorary title of the first king of Faerghus.

Loog, the King of Lions, wore brilliantly blue garments. His chivalric exploits are recorded in multiple legends.

The library holds various historical accounts regarding him and the Blue Lions.

If you find time, you should read them. They're filled with insights.

Lorenz

Lorenz

Our house is that of the Golden Deer. Do you know the significance of that name, Professor?

Lorenz
volume_up

Golden Deer are sacred creatures said to have protected Leicester since time immemorial.

Lorenz
volume_up

All three of the houses have a meaning behind their name. You should feel free to ask around, if that sort of knowledge interests you.

link
Lorenz
volume_up

It is the duty of every Fódlan noble to demonstrate piety toward Seiros.

Lorenz
volume_up

Have you also come to offer your prayers to the goddess, Professor?

Lorenz
volume_up

You don't sound terribly sure. Perhaps you are not of noble birth? After all, devotion is not as essential for a commoner.

Lorenz
volume_up

I see. The truth is, I am not a particularly devoted believer either. But it would be unbecoming for a noble like me to neglect his prayers, wouldn't it?

Raphael

Raphael

This is the Golden Deer House. You're in charge of a different house, right?

Seteth

These are the students' quarters. To better help you supervise them, you also have a room here. Your room is here at the end.

Seteth
volume_up

Commoner students also reside on the first floor, while the second is primarily for students of noble birth.

Seteth
volume_up

As a rule, we try to avoid discrimination based on social status here. But the nobility can be quite insistent when it comes to matters of propriety.

Seteth
volume_up

Speaking of, it would be best for you to avoid improper conduct. I expect you to set a good example for the students.

Apparently there is to be a mock battle between the houses. Interesting, but I hope you understand that I have far more important things on my mind.

Hanneman
volume_up

My research is proceeding slower than I would like. Your Crest is something of a challenge. Frustrating. Yet, also, quite intriguing.

Hanneman
volume_up

I was wondering if I might get a sample of your flesh. A couple square inches would do. No? Perhaps some blood? A couple of drops on the device are all I need.

Hanneman

Oh, thank you, Professor. Those few drops of blood are invaluable to my research! Oh, so much more to learn!

Manuela

A mock battle? This early? Wow, Professor. They're not giving you any time to settle in, are they?

Manuela

Don't you worry though! Should you get injured, I will care for you all through your recuperation. I will see to you oh-so very, very, personally.

Well, no need to worry. If you get hurt, I am more than capable of healing you. You'll not even have a scar.

That is why the Crest of Seiros is on the Imperial flag.

There are two types of Crests. Major Crests manifest their power most effectively, while Minor Crests are slightly weaker.

It is said that the closer a person's blood relation is to various saints and Heroes, the higher their chance of bearing a Major Crest.

Of course, there are also examples of Major Crests manifesting in children whose parents bear no Crest whatsoever.
