## Dialogue

(After the character customization screen)
**Rouin:** Highness, Count Oswald from the north has come requesting an audience. But before we get to that, there are treaty papers that require your attention. The terms are in our favor, so please review them and sign if you will.
(The player chooses a name for the Lord to sign the document with)
**Rouin:** Thank you. I shall summon the Count to the audience chamber.

(Oswald appears with a large number of knights)
**Oswald:** Greetings "Lord", ruler of Avillon.
**(Lord):** It’s been some time, Count. You brought guards into the audience chamber? What's the occasion?
**Oswald:** Heh... Don't play the fool. Avillon needs a strong leader, not one as feeble as you! I will never recognize your authority. That is why I, Oswald, the Golden Lion of the North, will be relieving you of your place on the throne!
**(Lord):** Not satisfied in your current position, I see. I'm getting bored of how predictable you are. Knights! Entertain our guests, will you?
**Fram:** Perfect timing! My hands were itchin' for a fight!
**Johan:** Treason is an unpardonable offence, Count Oswald!
**(Lord):** I'll take command. Get into formation.
**(Lord):** Fram, you attack the soldier dressed in red.
**(Lord):** Mu, use a wide-ranging attack to take out the other enemies.

(At the start of the Final Round)
**Oswald:** Don't think you've won just because you defeated a few soldiers!
(Before the Burst tutorial)
**Oswald:** Your knight are well-trained, it is true... But they are no match for me, the kingdom's greatest swordsman!
(After Oswald's attack)
**(Lord):** Now's your chance, Johan! Put the Count in his place!

(After defeating Oswald)
**Oswald:** Ngh... How did you become so powerful?!
**Oswald:** Heh, no matter... My elite forces are almost here. You will be outnumbered in no time!
**Fram:** As though that'll make a difference!
**(Lord):** Oswald, you seem desperate for the throne, but you should know one thing: honestly, it's not a very comfortable chair.
**Oswald:** Hah! Make all the jokes you want while you still can!
**Fram:** Aaand he ran away. Want me to go drag him back?
**(Lord):** No, I don’t want to make a mess of the audience chamber. Go have your fun with him outside.
**Johan:** Yes, Your Highness!

(At the start of the next battle)
**Platoon Sergeant:** The Count'll be back soon with reinforcements! Hold the line until then!
**Fram:** Hold the line? This is our Citadel!
(After Turn 1)
**Mu:** Multiple enemies detecting. Taking measures to heal allies.
(After defeating the enemies)
**Platoon Sergeant:** Ngh... We can't lose...! The Count promised us the treasures within the Citadel...
**Fram:** Treasures? We don't have any of those. Sounds like you've been tricked.
**Johan:** We'd best relocate to a more advantageous position before their reinforcements arrive.

(At the start of the Final Round)
**Oswald:** Ha ha ha! These are my elite forces, trained by my very own hand!
**Oswald:** You may be strong, but our forces are greater!
**Fram:** How does he even know this many people?!
(After Turn 1)
**(Lord):** Knights, get ready.
(Fram and Johan perform a chain burst)
**Oswald:** Ugh... What on earth...?
**Oswald:** (Lord)... What sort of technique was that...?
**(Lord):** You underestimate us, Count. If you're going to commit treason, try being better prepared next time.
**Oswald:** Curses! They said I would be enough to defeat you...
**(Lord):** So someone else put you up for this...
**(Lord):** I figured you weren’t impulsive enough to suddenly incite a rebellion. Or brave enough.
**(Lord):** Lock him up. We’ll need to find out who he’s working with.
**Johan:** Guards, round up our foes and take them to the dungeon. They shall be prosecuted fully and completely.
**(Lord):** Keep the prison guards to a minimum, Johan.
**Johan:** You wish to allow our prisoners to escape?
**(Lord):** Yes. The Count lost all his forces, which means the first thing he'll do is head straight to whoever's behind this...
**(Lord):** and we'll be right behind him.
**Johan:** A wise course of action, Your Highness. I shall enlist our finest trackers for the pursuit.

(In the throne room)
**Johan:** Highness, Count Oswald escaped our prison during the night.
**(Lord):** All according to plan. Where were they headed?
**Johan:** Preliminary reports indicate they left in the direction of the Nibelon Woodlands. Shall I organize the tracking expedition?
**(Lord):** We'll need a small unit of veterans... Let us use the knights. I'll be going, too.
**(Lord):** Rouin, you manage the affairs of the Citadel in my absence.
**(Lord):** Mu, check through our records and chronicles for any possible clues.
**Mu:** Take great care, Highness. Report new intelligence upon your return.
**Rouin:** The Citadel’s safe with me, Your Highness. Might I suggest you take Charlotte with you? She is a skilled healer, recently returned from her assignment.
**(Lord):** Charlotte? She came back at just the right time. Summon her to the audience chamber.
**Charlotte:** Ooh, what's everyone doing here?!
**(Lord):** ...Or she can just come on her own...
**Charlotte:** Charlotte Grace, your favorite spiritmancer, reporting for duty! I have finished my assignment at the Academy!
**(Lord):** I suspected you were doing well based on the numerous property damage claims I received from the Academy.
**Charlotte:** Hee hee! I really worked hard over there!
**(Lord):** Your return couldn't have come at a better time. We were just in need of high-caliber knights to quash a rebellion.
**Charlotte:** Really? We get to go outside?! Woohoo! I'm so excited! I hated working indoors!
**Fram:** I'm all for beatin’ up baddies, but should you really be that excited about a rebellion...?
**Johan:** She seems to have been rather stressed by her time at the Academy…
**Rouin:** Charlotte, let us first have your report on your previous assignment. Please follow me.
(Charlotte is knighted)
**(Lord):** In positions everyone. Let's head out!
