Rodrigue, Felix, Ingrid... I swear that I will not allow your deaths to be in vain.

The scouts have just now returned. It seems the Imperial army is marching toward the Kingdom capital.

Rhea

Are you certain about this, Dimitri? As king, do you think it wise to intercept them yourself?
link
Dimitri
volume_up

No need to worry yourself. Even if I am defeated, the Blaiddyd bloodline will live on.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

And the Kingdom's territory has never been rich in resources. If the castle falls under siege, our loss is inevitable.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I will deploy my army onto the plains and wait for the enemy. Please position your forces so that they can flank the Imperial army.
link
Rhea
volume_up

Yes, given the present situation, making the plains our battlefield is a logical choice.
link
Rhea
volume_up

I have no objection. However...
link
Dimitri
volume_up

There is only one person I am after. I have no interest in any other prey.
link
Rhea
volume_up

I will take you at your word. Erasing the other child's existence is my task, and mine alone.

Rhea

I will get you back, Mother... I promise...

What do you think, Lady Edelgard? Will they shut themselves inside of Fhirdiad?
link
Edelgard
volume_up

They will try to intercept us. Of course, Fhirdiad will not fall so easily. Even so...
link
Edelgard
volume_up

If we were to cut off their supply line with a large army, it would eventually fall.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

It makes much more sense for them to wager everything on a victory at the Tailtean Plains.
link
The Tailtean Plains...
link
Edelgard
volume_up

The same plains where the so-called divine Seiros defeated Nemesis, the King of Liberation, in a comeback victory over 1,000 years ago.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

And about 400 years ago, the hero Loog created the Kingdom by defeating the emperor of the time on those very plains.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Their goal must be to recreate that scene.
link
Hubert
volume_up

Yes, I suppose so.
link
Hubert
volume_up

Although the Imperial army is powerful, if we were to compare the strength of our best to the best of the Knights of Seiros, we would likely come up short.
link
Hubert
volume_up

The Kingdom's army and House Blaiddyd are also renowned for their unmatched persistence.
link
Hubert
volume_up

On the battlefield, it can be assumed that their one and only goal will be to strike you down.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Are you telling me to stay off the battlefield?
link
Hubert
volume_up

Naturally. You are their aim, Your Majesty. You must know it only makes sense to keep you out of their reach.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

And you must know that, at a time like this, I absolutely cannot withdraw.
link
Hubert
volume_up

Of course I know that. That is why I will refrain from asking you again to stay away from the battlefield.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

The Immaculate One, descendants of the 10 Elites, and other extremely fearsome foes await us.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

But with the help of our friends, we have a chance of defeating them. We're the only ones who can.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Within our group, I am included among those with the kind of strength we need to win. I absolutely will not remove myself from the front lines.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Professor, you have that same strength as well, whether or not you realize it yet.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

As emperor, I must not die in this war, and it would be unacceptable to lose you as well.

Please, don't get yourself killed trying to protect me.

Until the very end, we'll survive this trial together. Understood?
