Dividing the World: Before Battle

link
Byleth, Hilda enter the scene
link
Hilda
volume_up

Hey, Professor. I might have to go back home for a little while.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Oh no, nothing like that.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Well, that's one way of putting it...
link
Hilda
volume_up

The Almyran forces are causing trouble at Fódlan's Locket.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Oh, do you know where that is?
link
Hilda
volume_up

Well, the mountain range that separates the Alliance from Almyra is called Fódlan's Throat.
link
Hilda
volume_up

There's a fortress right on top of the "throat," and they call that Fódlan's Locket.
link
So, you're going to help defend it?
link
Hilda
volume_up

Well, yeah, you could say that. I'm sure my brother would be able to handle them on his own.
link
Hilda
volume_up

But he said he really wants me to help out. I guess he's a bit tired out from all his hard work.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Anyway, our dad's not as sprightly as he used to be. He's not up for a fight.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Apparently it would look bad if we left it to the retainers.
link
Hilda
volume_up

I really, really don't want to go, but I guess I have to.
link
Cyril enters the scene
link
Cyril
volume_up

Heya, Hilda. I...well, I wasn't trying to eavesdrop, but I heard ya talking...
link
Hilda
volume_up

Hm? Oh, what's up, Cyril?
link
Cyril
volume_up

You're gonna fight the Almyrans, yeah?
link
Hilda
volume_up

Yes. But it's nothing you need to worry about, Cyril.
link
Cyril
volume_up

It's not that. I was just wondering if...if maybe I could maybe go along with ya?
link
Hilda
volume_up

But—you'd be fighting people from your homeland. Do you really want to do that?
link
Cyril
volume_up

None of 'em would remember me anyway...
link
Cyril
volume_up

It's just that...I got captured in the battle at the Locket, and that's how I ended up here.
link
Cyril
volume_up

So I'm kinda worried that other kids who lose their folks might not be so lucky.
link
What do you mean?
link
Cyril
volume_up

Before Lady Rhea took me in, I had a real hard time as a servant of House Goneril.
link
Hilda
volume_up

I'm sorry to hear that. But it's not like I'll go around snapping up Almyran children.
link
Cyril
volume_up

That's good, but I just... I want to see things for myself, so I know...that everything's OK.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Hm. Well then, let's go together! Oh, would you want to join us, Professor?
link
Hilda
volume_up

My brother will be there, but I'm a little scared about fighting all those fierce Almyrans...
link
Cyril
volume_up

If you could come too, it be really great. We'd all feel way safer if you did.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Great! I know we'll be OK if you're there! Let's head out right away.
link
Cyril
volume_up

I'll go and get ready too.
link
Hilda
volume_up

You're a real tease, Professor. I know you're going to come along in the end.
link
Hilda
volume_up

But we can't wait long, so hurry up on deciding.
