## Content

Walther: I, Walther Bernhard, captain of the Tidal Knights, have come seeking an audience with Her Lady Rosanna Devicci, anchor and president of Isola.

Rosanna: Come now, it’s just us. No need for such niceties. Sir Walther, you are aware the whole country is in an uproar right now, are you not?

Walther: Yes. According to reports, Avillonian forces have made their way in and are initiating armed conflicts throughout the land… I’m sorry we have not been able to stop them, Madam President.

Rosanna: It seems they wish to meet me. What do you think about that?

Walther: They have committed offenses against Isola’s honor. Had they really wished to meet you, they should have gone through the proper channels. Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean you’d have granted them an audience, but we could have addressed that issue when we got there.

Rosanna: Heh, I’m glad we’re in agreement. I can’t have them disturbing our nation like this, not as long as I’m here. If etiquette and order are to be upheld, we cannot let such recklessness go by without due punishment.

Walther: I swear to punish those who have shown us disrespect.

Rosanna: Sir Walther, ever since you arrived, Isola has been stronger with your presence.

Walther: I have merely performed the duty which I have been entrusted. Lady Helga has also helped you, has she not? Albeit outside of the spotlight…

Rosanna: She has. We shed too much blood and too many tears in the War of the Tyrants… As Isolans, we must develop the strength to defend ourselves. It’s what we’ve worked to build all this time. Sir Walther, dole out a fitting punishment to those who have violated our land.

Walther: As you command, Madam.

Fram: ooh, it’s the cool old lady!

Helga: You’ve made it quite far into Isola, young ones.

"Lord": Looks like you have something to tell us.

Helga: I do, but I must apologize. It’s not good news.

"Lord": No need to apologize. Besides, you’re probably just going to tell us the Tidal Knights are now after us in earnest, right?

Helga: Indeed. I hope you lot are prepared for what’s ahead of you, with how much trouble you’ve stirred up here. If the Tidal Knights are after you, it’s a grave matter. I’d advise you don’t let it get to your head, though.

"Lord": I would think it’s serious. You wouldn’t send knights trained by the legendary spellsword, Walther Bernhard, after just anybody.

Helga: How do you know about the knights…? Who are you?

Fram: Dang, do you have some sorta legendary knights’ association in Isola? Why’re there so many big-shots around here?

Johan: The same Walther Bernhard who single-handedly fought back the Black Foxes with his sword of light in the Second War of the Tyrants? He’s still serving as a knight?

"Lord": I doubt even the effects of aging would much impair someone as strong and talented as him. The same goes for the lovely madam here. It wouldn’t be wise to let your guard down around her.

Helga: Ha ha, I’m rustier than you might think. Old Man Walther is too, though not quite as much. If you can defeat him, I’ll consider arranging a meeting between you and the President herself.

Fram: Er, huh? You’re not just gonna go grab Walther and fight us together?

Helga: I’m nothing more than a humble inn keeper. I bet the soldiers these days don’t even know who I am, heh. Besides, I don’t think you have malicious intentions. I don’t particularly feel the need to go all the way to the Isolan army to try to stop you.

"Lord": It’s true. We’ve no desire to hurt this nation or its people. We only want to have a proper conversation with the president. How can we do that if not in person?

Helga: I have to admit, I like your spunk. I hope you all finish what you’ve come here to do.

Charlotte: I don’t get it… Why’s she being so nice to us?

Schneider: Perhaps she could sense Highness’s good intentions…

"Lord": Once she acknowledges someone, Helga Schmitt begrudges no good will for them. It’s fortunate that she was the first major figure we met in Isola. It’s made things a bit easier than they would’ve been otherwise.

Zaira: Still, it seems we cannot avoid a confrontation with the Tidal Knights…

"Lord": Ugh, why is it always so hard to meet the person in charge…?
