Arenvald 	Did you see that, A'aba, Aulie? We did it!
 	
Mnaago 	<pant> <pant> For a moment there, I didn't think I could do it...but then I did!
 	
Lyse 	One step at a time, one step at a time. Until we're on Zenos's doorstep!
 	
Anantasoldier 	Ssso, you are indeed everything they sssay. The ssstuff of legends...
 	
Conrad 	There's still a chance that some imperials are holed up inside the castellum. We'll need to search it top to bottom to be sure it's safe.
Conrad 	In the meantime, I want you to rendezvous with the main host. Keep your weapons at the ready─there's a chance you might come face–to–face with soldiers on the run en route.
Conrad 	On second thought, it might be prudent for you to do a preemptive sweep of the region for soldiers that have gone to ground. We shouldn't afford them any time to regroup and launch a counterattack.
Conrad 	When you've judged your work to be done, report to General Aldynn in Bittermill.
 	
Conrad 	Just because we've won doesn't mean it's over yet. There're still enemies about, and a panicked soldier can kill you just as quick as a cool-headed one.
 	
Balloon 	Don't come any closer!
 	
Balloon 	Sod this! I'm not dying today!
 	
Alphinaud 	The Bull of Ala Mhigo has done it again. His assessment of Fordola's response was without error.
 	
Alisaie 	It's a good thing M'naago got the flag flying when she did. Any longer and those imperials might have had us at their mercy...
 	
Raubahn 	Well met/Well met/. All's well at the bridge?
Raubahn 	Good, good. The fighting has died down here too, as you can see.
Raubahn 	Pipin left but a moment ago with a contingent of troops to occupy Velodyna. If and when the imperials return, they'll find us dug in behind their own walls.
Alphinaud 	I could not have hoped for a better outcome, General. Splendidly done.
Raubahn 	Let's not get ahead of ourselves. It'll take more than one castellum to turn the tide.
Raubahn 	My men and I will deal with the remaining enemy forces. Scions, I bid you return to Commander Kemp and his men.
Alphinaud 	Delight not overmuch in victory─not when there are battles left to fight...
Alphinaud 	Our work here is finished. Our Resistance allies are waiting.
 	
Alphinaud 	From a stone bridge to a massive fortress... Garlean engineering never ceases to impress.
 	
Alisaie 	Now that we have taken control of Velodyna, there's nothing stopping us from marching east towards the Peaks.
 	
Lyse 	If you're looking for Arenvald, I think he's with Pipin, searching the castellum for any remaining soldiers.
 	
Resistancegateguard	Velodyna belongs to the Alliance and the Resistance now. You may be assured that the imperials will never hold it again!
 	
Conrad 	Back so soon? I suppose the General and his men had matters well in hand.
Conrad 	The vice marshal and his men showed up not long after you left. If the gods are good, there'll be no one left to fight...
