Fram: What’s wrong with these soldiers…?

Jac: Ngh…

Soldier: Look at that sword! I can’t fight against that!

Thorns Knight: What are you doing?! They are invading our border! Fight them, you cowards!

Soldier: Eeeek! If we d-don’t attack, he’s gonna kill us…!

"Lord": They’re serfs, not trained soldiers.

Johan: Their morale seems to be very low. If we can dispatch of their commander, they may just scatter and flee.

"Lord": Knights, focus on the commander. Avoid hurting the serfs as much as possible!

Schneider: Understood, Your Highness!

...

Thorns Knight: You good-for-nothings! All soldiers, fall back!

Rhodon Archer: What about the serfs?

Thorns Knight: Leave ‘em! They’ll buy us some time to get away!

"Lord": Mikhail, target that knight attempting to flee.

Mikhail: I hate cowards.

Thorns Knight: Aagghh!

"Lord": Great shot.

Jac: P-please, have mercy! We were forced to do this! At least let us leave with our lives!

"Lord": Listen, everyone. I am "Lord", monarch of Avillon. I’ve no intention of hurting the good people of Rhodon.

Solier: A monarch…?

Second Soldier: Avillon? That little country in the West…?

"Lord": Do any of you know a man named Jac from Breneau?

Soldier: Huh? You know that [person], Jac?

Jac: I’ve never seen [them] before in my life…

Second Soldier: What’d you get yerself into this time, Jac?!

Jac: N-nothing! I was dragged here like the rest of you… I am Jac from Breneau. What do you want from me…?

"Lord": At ease. I mean you no harm. Can you gather together the conscripted soldiers from your unit?

Jac: M-me?!

"Lord": Yes. They’ll listen to you.

Jac: Oh, I… I’ll… As you command!

Soldier: This is it… We’re done for… They’re gonna use us as slaves now…

Second Soldier: What’s even goin’ on? Why’re we suddenly at war?

"Lord": Listen, everyone! As monarch of Avillon, I’ll make you a promise. I promise that you will all make it back to your homes safely.

Second Soldier: Wh-what…?

"Lord": I’m going to send you back to your families and relatives. I’m sure they’re eager to see you. Avillon has no intention of suppressing you or of plundering your homes. You will not be deprived of anything from your lives. In return, I would ask that you put your trust in me so that we can end this war quickly.

Soldier: Well shoot, are you serious?

Second Soldier: Aren’t we at war? That’s the knights said, that we done got invaded…

Jac: Th-thank you, Your Highness! All right, fellas, don’t just stand around starin’ off at nothing. Hurry up and gather everyone here. We should all fit nicely in this little gatherin’ area here. Make sure you help anyone who’s injured, too!

Soldier: So this was your plan all along, Jac? To sell us out to these invaders?!

Jac: What sorta blockhead are you? why in the world would a monarch wanna trick a pack of fools like us from backwater country? [They] could order us all to be killed if [they] wanted, but instead [they] made us a promise! And if that weren’t enough, [they] “asked” us to put our trust in [them]. You ever heard of a noble “asking” us to do anythin’?

Second Soldier: Can’t say I have, no…

Jac: Same with me. They ain’t typically the type of people to kindly “ask” for anything! I don’t think these people here’re gonna hurt us, so just gimme a hand, yeah?

Second Soldier: Yeah, okay. I’m with you. Tomson! Help me out over there!

"Lord": Jac’s helpful as ever.

Johan: Your Highness, how did you know the name of an enemy serf…?

"Lord": We’ve met before. If anyone can get the conscripts on our side and help us quell the chaos here, it’s him.

Johan: I see… That was the reason you ordered a much larger supply of rations to be brought than we would’ve needed.

Fram: There’s not anythin’ Highness doesn’t know, huh? I’m impressed!

Lord: No, no, this is just something I have some experience in… Moving forward, there will be much we encounter that I don’t know.
