"Alright, Arc, take the front of the east, blocking out the Pegasi. Lupis, take the front for the west. I'll lead the attack on the wyverns." Giving her orders, the group quickly splits up with Elay heading directly toward one of the nearby wyverns and attacking them. She lands a quick slash, but is hit in retaliation by the wyvern's claw. Taking a quick step back before lunging into the wyvern rider, Elay manages to finish him.
Wyvern Rider receives 12 damage 12/24 HP
Elay receives 9 damage 12/21 HP
Wyvern Rider receives 12 damage 0/24 HP
Carthis then runs in behind her, preparing her bow and aiming at one of the distanced wyvern riders. "This is your last dance!" She releases an arrow into the rider, piercing through his armor easily and visibly damaging him before releasing another arrow into the wyvern. Both rider and wyvern are close to falling out of the sky, but manage to stay in the air. "It's all yours, Claire~"
Critical hit! Wyvern Rider receives 15 damage 9/24 HP
Wyvern Rider receives 5 damage 4/24 HP
"Ah, yes. I will kill him. I believe wind magic is effective against flying enemies." Claire makes a quick motion with her hand, causing a burst of wind to knock the wyvern rider into the ocean, sinking into the water. "Drowning is also effective on flying enemies."
Wyvern Rider receives 9 damage 0/24 HP
Claire reaches level 6! Claire's Health, Strength, Magic, Speed, Luck, Defense, and Resistance increase by 1! Claire's Skill increases by 2!
Arc approaches one of the nearby Pegasus Knights and lands a well placed jab, quickly leading her horse out of the way of the enemy's strike back.
Pegasus Knight receives 12 damage 6/18 HP
Miss! Arc receives no damage 23/23 HP
Gerand follows behind her and quickly grabs a knife out from his sleeve, tossing it into the damaged enemy and taking them down.

Shizuka then comes running in, taking out two knives and tossing them off into the distance at one of the far off Pegasus Knights, watching them drop out of the sky afterwards.

Darik then walks up and waves to one of the further off approaching pegasi and shouts to them. "Hey! I'm going to kill you now, alright? Thanks!" A dark cloud of shadowy energy surrounds the Pegasus Knight before a large explosion detonates all around them, leaving nothing behind. Then little magic spheres return to Darik, healing him.
Critical Hit! Pegasus Knight receives 45 damage 0/18 HP
Darik recovers 23 health 23/23 HP
Heading over to the west, Lupis goes to the front and immediately hits one of the Turtle Riders with his axe, smashing them overhead. Although the attack is blocked, the Turtle Rider still seems to be hurt pretty badly. They then stab back at Lupis, but Kain swipes the lance away, roaring at the Turtle Rider and chomping down on them, dealing some heavy damage, but not fully defeating them.
Turtle Rider receives 11 damage 14/25 HP
Blocked! Lupis receives no damage 25/25 HP
Turtle Rider receives 11 damage 3/25
Vex focuses on one of the further off turtles, taking out her Luna tome and laughing a bit to herself. "Oh, how foolish you are to stand against me, dear, sweet turtle rider." She makes a motion with her hand, surrounding the rider with floating, dark magic spheres before they all crash into him at the same time, taking him down with ease. "I would have preferred more of a challenge..."
Turtle Rider receives 22 damage 3/25 HP
Turtle Rider receives 22 damage 0/25 HP
With the first strike taken by Elay and her allies, the enemies begin to advance. The Wyvern Riders that are left surround Elay and all swing their axes, trying to hit her. While she manages to avoid most of the attacks, one of the axes manages to scratch her arm before she jumps from rider to rider, swinging Excalibur into each one multiple times. Landing behind one of the Wyvern Riders, she releases a powerful swing with all her might, knocking them off balance. She then lands another incredibly powerful blow, knocking the Wyvern Rider into the other two and sending them all tumbling into the ocean below. "That's how you do it."

As the enemy numbers appear to be dying down, Quila calls out for reinforcements and another wave of enemies begins to approach quickly. With the battling continuing on, one of the storage barrels on the ship sneezes and tips over. The barrel next to it opens up the lid and a woman with long, wavy blue hair pops up out of it. “Well, I guess my calculations on you messing up our stealth mission were a bit off…”
The barrel that fell over breaks open and a tall, muscular man carrying a large sword stands in its place. “It’s not my fault if I had to sneeze! Stealth was never my style anyway. Let’s just fight our way through this.” He prepares for battle, holding his sword and changing his stance. He wears green and white colored clothes and a sleeveless shirt, showing off his arms.
The woman he was with sighs and hops out of the barrel, fixing her intricately designed, blue cloak worn over purple clothing. “Hmm...assessing the situation, it looks like we won’t be thrown overboard if we help them fight these enemies. Your sword is effective against dragons, so you should focus on those wyverns. My tome is powerful against any enemies in or above the water, so I could possibly use it on any of them. Ah, but how to decide who it would be most effective against...perhaps the enemies with high magical resistance or maybe the enemies with the high defense so I can help my allies…? The possibilities on maximizing efficiency on a battlefield…”
“Pay attention, Canzar! They’re coming!”
“Oh, Yuro, you have no respect for the art of planning an attack…”
“You don’t plan, you just do. Now move it!”

Elay quickly retreats to the center of the ship and notices the two unknown fighters. "Who-"
"No time to explain. We're here to help." Yuro runs off toward the pegasus knights without explaining anything.
"We're stowaways, but we're helping you in battle, so you don't have to kill us." She then notices Yuro ran off and sighs. "He's wasting his effectiveness on the dragons. I guess I'll have to make up for it myself and head north." She runs off and leaves Elay very confused before Gerand runs in and heals her.

Gerand reaches level 8! Gerand's Health, Strength, Magic, Skill, Speed, and Luck increase by 1!
"Well, I guess as long as they're fighting on my side I don't really care why..." Elay shrugs.
Running to the north, Canzar takes out a special, blue tome and waves her hand toward one of the Wyvern Knights, causing a powerful burst of water to launch up from below and smash into him before dragging him down into the ocean. "Just as I predicted."
Wyvern Rider receives 37 damage 0/24 HP

"Okay." Claire raises her hand, sending a blade of wind through the enemy Wyvern Rider before swinging her arm down and launching another one shortly afterward. "I did it."

As they fight, the Wyvern Riders remaining approach, closing in specifically toward Claire. She quickly steps aside, avoiding a thrown hand axe from one of them, but the other lands an axe strike directly on her, doing some heavy damage. She stumbles back slightly, but still stands. With multiple movements, she launches wind blades at her enemies before creating a large magic circle around the other with one hand. "Can you swim? Hopefully not." She snaps her finger and a powerful tornado blasts out of the circle, launching the rider into the water below. "I'm learning so much..."

With the enemy Wyvern Riders defeated, four Pegasus Knights take their place.
To the east, Arc continues standing at the front, protecting her allies and facing off against the Pegasus Knights. She rides in and lands a strike on the injured one, finishing it.
Pegasus Knight receives 13 damage 0/18 HP
Shizuka takes out a couple of knives and tosses one of them into a distant Pegasus Knight, making them lose focus for a moment before leaping in the air at them and knocking them off their pegasus with a knife slash. "How weak." She then backflips off the pegasus and lands back on the ship, unharmed.
Pegasus Knight receives 10 damage 8/10 HP
Critical hit! Pegasus Knight receives 30 damage 0/18 HP
Darik picks out his favorite Pegasus Knight and prepares a spell from his tome. "Oh, this one looks dangerous! Tell me if it kills you." A cloud of darkness surrounds one of the riders off in the distance before a giant explosion of darkness detonates and nothing remains. "Did you live? No? Good, it worked!"
Critical hit! Pegasus Knight receives 45 damage 0/18 HP
Darik reaches level 8! Darik's Health, Magic, Skill, and Resistance increase by 1!
The remaining Pegasus Knights close in with one targeting Arc and the other two going after Shizuka. Arc skillfully blocks her opponent's strike before countering with her own. Meanwhile, Shizuka quickly jumps around, dodging javelins being launched at her. She then tosses a rain of knives on her enemies, causing those that struck at her to fall from the sky.

To the west, Lupis approaches one of the injured turtle riders, quickly defeating them with a single axe strike.

Vex provides support from behind, aiming for one of the riders off in the distance with her Luna tome. She quickly drops a large sphere of dark energy on the target before throwing another into them and defeating them.

As they finish, the enemies move in closer. Those with Javelins attack Vex and those without attack Lupis. Lupis knocks away the enemy lances before Kain lands a large claw swipe on the turtle riders. Vex simple steps to the side as the javelins drop where she once was before launching multiple dark spheres into her enemies in retaliation. "Hmm. We work together surprisingly well."
Lupis nods. "The three of us could make a team even Shizuka would notice."

Claire quickly retreats to the center, being healed by Gerand and returned to full health.
Claire recovers 27 health 21/21 HP
Taking Claire’s place, Elay runs back up to the north and stands in the front, guarding against the incoming Pegasus Knights. Carthis launches a couple of arrows into one of the Pegasus Knights flying in the distance, taking them out while Canzar causes a powerful burst of water to launch up in the air and drown another Pegasus Knight.

The two surviving Pegasus Knights fly in closer with one attacking Elay and the other attacking Carthis from a distance. The rider targeting Elay spins its lance around and dives down quickly, landing a well placed jab on her. She stumbles back slightly, but retaliates quickly by swinging Excalibur into her opponent. The other Pegasus Knight flies over and tosses a javelin toward Carthis, missing badly as she easily steps out of the way. She then retaliates with two arrows, taking out the attacking enemy with ease.

Shizuka takes out a couple of knives and quickly tosses them at one of the enemy Pegasus Knights flying away from the boat, taking them out quickly. Darik follows after her, creating another incredibly powerful explosion around another rider. “Huh. I guess I’m doing better than usual today. Or maybe these guys just suck.”

Yuro receives 3 damage 15/18 HP
Pegasus Knight receives 21 damage 0/18 HP
There aren’t any new enemies that appear afterward. Quila looks frustrated, but flies closer toward the ship and prepares herself for battle.
Finally, to the west, Lupis takes out the injured Turtle Rider in front of him while Vex knocks the enemy Pegasus Knight with a javelin out of the sky with a dark energy meteor.
Turtle Rider receives 13 damage 0/25 HP

The three Pegasus Knights that remain charge at Lupis, but he and his dragon easily knock their weapons away, blocking attacks.

I wonder if Shizuka was watching…?”

"Hm. I don't see anymore enemies."
Elay looks around for a moment before turning to her allies. "Something isn't right. Everyone retreat to the center of the ship! Arc! Lupis! Stay on guard at the edges!" Everyone starts to head toward the center as Carthis performs a quick dance for Claire to inspire her to move faster.
Carthis reaches level 7! Carthis' Health, Speed, Luck, and Resistance increase by 1!
When Elay returns to the center of the ship, Gerand quickly heals over her wounds.
Elay recovers 27 health 22/22 HP
Gerand reaches level 9! Gerand's Health, Strength, Magic, Skill, Speed, Luck, and Defense increase by 1!
"Thank you, Gerand, but don't concern yourself with a few small scratches. There's something much more important at hand here."
"Nonsense, it is my job to keep you safe."
"That might be true, but it's pointless to keep me alive when everyone else is dead. I think the enemy might be planning an attack. Be on your guard." Gerand nods.
Quila rides toward Arc and pauses for a moment, flying in the air as she watches her.
"You look familiar..."
Arc looks down for a moment, shifting the lance in her hand uncomfortably.
"...Arc...!? What are you doing with Umbra? You do not belong with those heretics."
"...These people are my friends, Quila. I will not abandon them. And...I can't show my face to father again after what happened..."
"Nonsense! Leave these people and return home with me, Arc! We can be a family again. Father will surely forgive you for whatever sins you have committed."
"You don't understand. This is the only choice I have left. Just make this easier for me and leave, will you?"
"Out of the question. I am one of the Holy Knights. This is my duty to my country and to the gods. If you will not move...I have no choice but to strike you down."
"Just listen to yourself! You sound insane! Stop this! Join the right side. Father was wrong. The Laguz are not evil."
"Hold your tongue! You are not the sister I once knew. And to insult my father...unspeakable! Forget my offer. We will end this on the battlefield."
"...May the gods forgive me for this..." Arc prepares her lance, leading her horse a couple of steps back and raising her shield at the ready.
Quila dives down, quickly landing a stab on Arc before Arc retaliates with a jab of her own. Quila then finishes up by swinging her lance into Arc, knocking the wind out of her for a bit. Both riders move back a bit, planning out their next moves.
Arc receives 5 damage 18/25 HP
Quila receives 8 damage 28/36 HP

Claire and Shizuka both quickly run to the west, behind Lupis. Lupis rides in first, targeting one of the Falcon Knights. He swings his axe and quickly knocks them back with some heavy damage, but the Falcon Knight retaliates, swooping past Lupis quickly, twice in a row. Lupis manages to block out most of the damage, but is still hit with a few scratches here and there.
Falcon Knight receives 16 damage 12/28 HP

"Lupis. You're brave. But stupid. Don't take on an enemy alone." Shizuka runs in and jumps on Kain's back, quickly throwing a knife at the Falcon Knight from a distance.
Falcon Knight receives 5 damage 7/28 HP
"Shizuka!? You actually noticed I was protecting you!?"
"What? No. I noticed you trying to get yourself killed."
Claire walks in and looks at the two of them for a moment. "Um...hello. I'm here too. Oh, I think this is what they call being a third wheel." She then reaches for her tome, raising her hand to launch a burst of wind at the damaged Falcon Knight.
Falcon Knight receives 2 damage 5/28 HP
Claire reaches level 10! Claire's Health, Strength, Magic, Skill, Speed, Luck, Defense, and Resistance increase by 1!
"...Oh. It did almost nothing." Claire watches as the Falcon Knight shrugs off the blow and flies at Lupis with the other Falcon Knight following. They both quickly fly past Lupis and overwhelm him, quickly landing attacks when they can, dealing small amounts of damage at a time. Lupis manages to hit one of them with his axe, but both enemies are still flying.

It looks like this is the last wave of enemies, so there's no need to prepare to battle more than these two.
Yuro and Canzar quickly run to the north and prepare to battle against the Falcon Knights there. "Alright, you remember the plan, correc-"
"TAKE THIS!" Canzar sighs as she's interrupted by Yuro leaping at one of the Falcon Knights, completely missing with his strike while they fly out of the way. "Wha-? How'd you dodge my attack? Get back here, I'm not done with you!" Just as he says, the Falcon Knight swoops back down and lands a quick jab, knocking him onto the ground.
Miss! Falcon Knight receives no damage 28/28 HP
Yuro receives 10 damage 9/19 HP
"You never listen. These are highly trained knights. You aren't just going to smash then with a big sword and win. You must stay calm and collected. And watch the enemy carefully for an opening. Like this." Canzar carefully targets her enemy and launches a burst of water from her hands, smashing it into them.
Falcon Knight receives 13 damage 15/28 HP
"Forget about hitting them! They're coming back down for round two!" Yuro gets to his feet, still badly damaged.
The two Falcon Knights swoop over the boat like a hurricane, landing their attacks on both Yuro and Canzar. Canzar is knocked right off her feet and falls on her back. She can feel pain rippling through her entire body, but she launches another geyser into the Falcon Knight that attacked her. She watches him drop down and land on the ground, badly injured. Although she's breathing heavy, she's satisfied with her attack. She manages to flip herself over and crawl on all fours before noticing that she doesn't hear Yuro anymore. "...Yuro? Yuro!" She finds him lying on the ground, barely moving and barely breathing. Blood stains his clothes and he coughs as she approaches.
"Ha...I guess you were right. How careless..." He coughs again as Canzar crawls to his side and places her hands on his chest, trying to stop the blood from flowing out of him. "Canzar...it's too late. Just forget about me. I was just an overconfident dragon hunter. You were right...I should have planned better. I guess you can't improvise everything...ha...ha..."
"No, you idiot! I need you here! You're right! Thinking on your feet is good! You have to improvise sometimes! Stay with me! You promised you would see me to Sidhe! Stay awake, dammit!"
"Canzar...I can't...this is my time. I've lived a good life. And I'm glad I've made up for my past by bringing you here. If anyone were to die here, I'm glad to see it's me. Not you."
"This wasn't what we agreed on! Stay awake, you big oaf! You're my only friend. Don't leave me alone like this..."
"Go with...the princess. Go...with...her..." He coughs a few more times before going still.
"Yuro...this...this isn't how it was supposed to go..." Canzar sits over his body, tears streaming down her face. The Falcon Knights swarm overhead, waiting to claim their next victim.
Canzar receives 15 damage 4/19 HP
Falcon Knight receives 13 damage 2/28 HP

Yuro has died...
Canzar has reached level 9! Canzar's Health, Strength, Magic, Skill, Speed, Luck, Defense, and Resistance increase by 1!
Meanwhile, on the other side of the boat, Elay stands in front of Arc, taking her place in battle against her sister. "You're battle is with me! I'll take this one, Arc. You handle the Falcon Knights." Arc nods and rides off toward the Falcon Knights while Elay takes a battle stance, holding Excalibur at the ready.
"The dark princess? You're the reason for all this trouble. You're the one that took my sister away from me."
"She chose to come with us! She was not forced by any means! Leave her alone. I'm the one you want, so come get me!"
"Ha! You clearly used some forbidden, dark magic on her to make her work for you. I'll kill you and take her home, where she belongs! Then we can purify your evil ways from her!"
"You're in denial."
"No, I know your kind. And I won't hesitate to skewer you right here and now on my holy lance! Prepare for judgement!"
Elay runs in and quickly leaps in the air, spinning her sword and swinging it into Quila vertically. Quila is caught off guard from the power from one sword. "So this is the power of a legendary weapon. I will stand against the odds!" Quila quickly darts past Elay twice, swooping down both times before flying in the air. Elay is hit by the powerful first strike, but catches herself when the second comes from behind, jumping over Quila's lance and barely avoiding death.
Quila receives 12 damage 16/36 HP
Elay receives 11 damage 11/22 HP
Miss! Elay receives no damage 11/22 HP
When Elay lands back on the ground, Gerand rushes to her side and quickly heals her, removing any trace of damage.
Elay recovers 27 health 22/22 HP
Darik then runs in behind Elay and casts Nosferatu on Quila, creating a dark blast around her. "I guess I lost all my luck when it comes to making people explode. But don't worry, princess, I got your back." Darik says princess almost in a mocking fashion.
Quila receives 11 damage 5/36 HP
Darik reaches level 9! Darik's Magic, Skill, Speed, and Defense increase by 1!
"Now is not the time for something as stupid as you, Darik."
Carthis then runs in and performs a dance for Elay. "You can do it, Elay! I'll be supporting you all the way, cutie~"
Elay nods. "Thank you, Carthis. Now it's time I end this." Elay tosses Excalibur high in the air. "For all those that depend on me! I will cut you down!" She leaps up in the air and grabs Excalibur before dropping down and swinging her weapon into Quila, quickly following with three slashes in a row, smashing Quila down into the ground with the last one.
Critical hit! Quila receives 36 damage 0/36 HP
Elay reaches level 10! Elay's Strength, Skill, Luck, Defense, and Resistance increase by 1!
"Im...possible...Is there no hope...? I leave my duties...to the other holy knights. My siblings...bring Arc back...and win this war..."
The Falcon Knights all look on in shock and shout to each other. "The holy knight is defeated! Retreat! We have no hope of winning this battle!" The remaining enemies fly away while they still can, leaving the battlefield.

A few moments after the battle passes, Arc stands with Elay, looking out at the ocean with the ship moving toward the port of Sidhe where they will be staying. Arc hesitates a moment before she manages to choke out a few words. "So...it's...done. She's..."
Elay looks behind and sees Arc there. Her expression quickly sinks into a frown and she finds it difficult to look Arc directly. "Um...yes. She was...I..."
"You killed Quila."
"...Yes. I did."
"Tha...t's...okay. It's o...kay. I underst...and..." Arc is clearly struggling to say anything else.
"...I'm so sorry. I didn't want things to end like this, but...I had no choice. And...I know it means nothing coming from me. You probably hate me. You can leave when we reach the port, if you want. I can arrange for Gerand to take you anywhere you like to go. I just...there's nothing I can ever do to show you how much I...regret what I've done."
Arc takes in a few breaths, trying to keep herself from crumbling into tears for a few minutes before responding. "No, do not regret anything, Elay. I am not going to run away. This...This was going to happen eventually. It was decided that day I left home. That...day. It's not your fault. Things just...fell out of place. But if we give up here, everything will be for nothing. All the sacrifices that have been made. Quila is not...the first person I have seen die before. Not the first person that was close to me. It just seems like...everything always goes like this. Eve...rything...goes...th-this...I can't..." Arc is practically shaking as she says these words.
Elay simply steps toward her and removes Arc's helmet, watching as her golden hair flows down in soft waves. Her eyes are blue and filling with tears like a crying ocean. Elay wraps her arms around Arc and holds her for a moment. "It's okay to be sad. You don't have to act strong all the time."
Arc takes in a shaky breath. "That day I ran away...I ran because I was considered a monster by the church. My own father said I was a monster. I...I killed some knights. Out in the forest. There was a little boy there. A Laguz. They were going to kill him. I couldn't just let them do that...he was innocent. He stole some food, but...he had nothing else to eat. What was he to do? Nobody treats them right. So when I stood up for him, I...They...My only choice was to fight. It feels like...everything just goes wrong. Ever since that day, everything goes wrong..." Unable to hold herself back any longer, she holds Elay with both arms and places her face on her shoulder. It was quiet. There was no sound aside from the waves. Elay felt the warm tears starting to soak her shoulder. But she didn't care. This was important.
And so the two stood like that for some time in silence until the boat finally reached shore...
Elay and Arc achieve support rank C!

The group gets off the boat and stands in a small port town in Sidhe. "Here we are. Sidhe. Finally. And close to the front lines." Elay speaks to herself a moment, looking up at the night sky. "With so much destruction already...I don't look forward to what's in store. But this is what I have to do. Because if I don't, surely it will only get worse."
Gerand walks off the ship and sees Elay staring at the sky before calling to her. "Lady Elay! Get inside! It is much too windy out for a midnight stroll! I'll go prepare some tea for you. And I have warm blankets. You must NOT catch a cold before battle. That would be a new kind of terrible."
"Yes, you're right. Sorry to worry you. I was just thinking."
"There will be plenty of time for thinking tomorrow, when you're preparing. For now, you need rest. It has been a long day."
"It has. Sleep is good. I think I'll get some. Thanks, Gerand."

Canzar steps outside at night, walking down the road, to the ocean. There, she wanders along the water's edge, picking up seashells she finds. "This one seems interesting. Or maybe this one..." She moves along rather slowly and the slight winds cause her cloak to flutter lightly in the breeze. "It is...cold out. I should probably just head back. I won't find any here." As she rises up to her feet and brushes the sand off of herself, someone calls from behind.
"Canzar? Is that you, dear?" Vex walks calmly along the beach over to where Canzar stands. "What are you doing out at this time? And alone. It's dangerous to go alone at night. There are monsters around here, you know."
"I did not originally plan on coming here alone. But...I guess I don't have a choice now. I will be alright. I'm simply looking for a rainbow shell."
"A shell? I'm sorry, I don't understand. Why are you looking for a shell all on your own?"
"It's...something Yuro and I used to do together. When we were kids, my mom told us that there was a special shell by the ocean. A rainbow shell. It was magic and it would grant you a wish. We used to just look for it for fun, but...I guess if that shell is really out there somewhere, I have something I want to wish for."
"Ah, I see. Well, you never know. Sometimes these stories turn out to be true. Maybe that rainbow shell really is waiting out there for you."
"...I'm beginning to have doubts. Even with magic in play, it sounds far fetched to me."
"Nonsense. Here, I'll help you look for it. Where should we check first?"
"You want to help me?"
"Of course I do! Now let's get to it. Rainbow shells don't find themselves. We have a wish to make! I create potions with ingredients hidden like this all the time. I'm naturally a great treasure hunter! Come now, let's get moving, dear! We don't want to the rainbow shell to run off while we're busy talking!"
"It can do that? Hey, don't push so hard! We need to carefully plan how we're going to catch this shell, not just face dive into it! Are you listening to me? Vex? Vex!"
Vex and Canzar achieve relationship rank C!
"Heheh...I got it this time. There's no way she can be this oblivious! She'll have to see my passion! My love! My adorable Claire~" Carthis fills the hallway with evil giggles before waiting to ambush her target. The one and only best girl...
After a few moments, Claire calmly steps out of the doorway and closes it behind her, walking past Carthis. "Hello, Carthis."
"Huh!? How did you know I was waiting for you?"
"I heard you laughing to yourself. It was very obvious."
"...Oh, that. Right. So. You're hair looks great today! Did you do something new with it?"
"No."
"Haha, of course not, I knew that. You're eyes are absolutely gorgeous!"
"I've always had the same eyes too."
"...You're impossible."
"But I'm right here. It seems like I am very possible."
"That's not..." Carthis takes in a deep breath and lets it out in a long exhale. "OKAY. LISTEN. YOU ARE CUTE."
"Oh...okay."
"...THAT'S IT!?"
"Yeah."
"...Why aren't you picking up any clues!?"
"If we are solving a crime, shouldn't we let the scene stay the same? Moving things could destroy valuable evidence..."
"Claire. I need you to look deeper than the surface here."
"I saw you without clothes the other day in the baths."
"Ughhhh. Why is it so hard to get my feelings across to you?"
"I understand your feelings completely."
"You do? Sooo, what do you think?"
"You are frustrated."
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT!"
"Oh, perhaps you could explain then. I'm always willing to learn. Let me get out a notebook and..." Claire looks around for a moment, seeing that Carthis has left. "Oh...? Carthis left. But she didn't finish teaching me. Maybe we will finish our lesson later." She places her things away and continues on as if nothing happened.
Carthis and Claire reach support rank B!

"...I wonder if Shizuka ever notices all the things I do for her. I mean, just today, I already cleaned her room, patrolled the area for enemies, and cleaned the room again once I saw that Kain destroyed it." Lupis sighs and sits down.
"Lupis!"
He immediately springs back up to his feet. "Yes, Shizuka!"
"I was going to ask if you've seen Carthis. I needed to ask her something."
"Oh...right. Carthis is probably downstairs, still trying to do the impossible and flirt with Claire."
"Thanks." She turns and starts to leave, but turns back around. "Hey, where did Kain go? He got hurt in that last fight, right? I want to make sure he's okay."
"Kain? Yeah, he's fine. He was barely scratched."
I was the one that got hit the most...
"Well, as long as he's okay." She then starts to walk out before casually mentioning something. "Oh, and good work in that last fight."
Lupis starts smiling widely. "She acknowledged my existence! This calls for a victory lap. Kaiiiinnn!"

Elay sits outside, writing out various battle strategies and plans in a small book. It's usually careful writing and thinking followed by quick scribbling and mumbling about how terrible of a plan it is. "I am not looking forward to this at all..."
"What's the matter princess?" Swinging down from a nearby tree, Darik hangs upside down and stares at Elay, directly in front of her face.
"Darik...what are you doing here? You know I don't like you."
"Why not? We should be good friends. I am your royal mage, you know. Every ruler before you and every one after you is going to have one."
"Great, I'll make sure my kid doesn't have yours as his then."
"So rude. I've helped you in so many battles. I see no reason why you should hate me."
"You're annoying for one thing. And stop calling me princess. My name is Elay. I don't like formal crap. Reminds me too much of Lux."
"But you are the princess. Why not call you princess?"
"Maybe I don't want to be a princess. I have to make all these life or death situations. So many people are counting on me and I don't think I can make the right decisions. But it's not like you'd understand that. You're just a dumb dark mage that hangs around in trees and makes zombies explode. You think this is all just fun and games? There are living people on the line here. You can't just dismiss that. It's not a game. Get that through your head. This is just like our training battle. You just fight without any consideration for life."
"The reason I fought the way I did then was because I wanted you to understand what things are like in the real world. On a real battlefield, you can't show mercy. Otherwise, you WILL die. And I wasn't going to kill you. I'm not crazy. I was able to control those zombies the entire time. If you were defeated in battle, I'd just call them off. No matter what choices you make in this war, people are going to die. There's no avoiding that. You have to choose who's going to die. But don't act like I don't get that." Darik drops out of the tree and lands on his feet. "See you later, Elay." He walks off, leaving her under the tree.
Elay turns to sit back down in her spot, but sees Gerand standing there. "Oh, Gerand, when did you get here?"
"I've been watching for almost the whole time. You know, Darik has been affected by this war as well. His mother was your father's royal mage. She died in battle against an Opulentian knight. Because she tried to spare them. Once her guard was down, they struck."
"...Oh. I didn't know that."
"It seems like Darik is truly trying his hardest to help you. I believe his jokes are all made to try and lighten the mood. Perhaps to help him forget where he is and what he's doing."
Elay sighs. "Now I feel bad. I have to apologize to him..."
Elay and Darik achieve support rank B!
Standing off to the side and reading during the day, Canzar leans against a wall casually, flipping through the pages of her tome. As she does so, Arc happens to walk by and notices her. "Hey, you. You're that mage, right? Why are you always avoiding everyone?"
"Hm? Me? Yeah, I'm the new mage. But I'm not really avoiding everyone. Not on purpose anyway. I just don't normally spend much time with other people."
"I see. Sorry then. I just thought it was odd you didn't really interact with the others all that much."
"Well, I don't really know any of them and just forcing myself into a conversation seems...odd. I'd rather read on my own and study my magic."
"So you're a student?"
"Yes, I used to go to a magic academy back in Umbra. I was...actually one of their best students. But I left for...reasons. I had to get to the princess and help her in her battle. It's part of my mission."
"I see. What would that mission be?"
"That's a secret that I can't tell you."
"I understand. I won't try to look too much into it if it's something you wish to keep to yourself."
"What about you? You're some sort of holy cavalier?"
"Yes, well, I used to be a holy knight in Lux, but I found myself disagreeing with their ways and fighting back with Elay."
"Interesting. Lux is a place that focuses very heavily on religion, isn't it?"
"Yes, the gods are very important there."
"Tell me a bit about Lux. I'm always interested in learning about other cultures."
"Well, let me think..."
Arc and Canzar achieve support rank C!

"Well, Miss Vex? What do you think?" Claire steps back from the multiple training dummies, all blown to pieces on the floor.
"I think you're ready for the next level, dear." Vex smiles. "This is exciting! Let's see what cute outfits I can put you in." Vex quickly grabs Claire and takes her into a different room so they can change her outfit.
When she walks out, Claire is no longer wearing her old clothes, but something entirely new. In place of her old robes, she now wears an elegant, soft, white robe with purple, fuzzy trim along the edges and lining the inside for warmth. The robe is held together with a purple sash around her waist, but splits slightly at the thigh, revealing her bare legs and black boots. Her long, purple hair is no longer kept in a long braid, but left freely sitting on her shoulders. It's kept out of her face with a white headband she wears.
Claire changed to the Cleric class!
Claire's Magic, Luck, and Resistance increase by 2!
Claire lost the ability to use Anima and Light!
Claire learned Shadowgift and Miracle!
"I think I'm stronger now..."

Meanwhile, at the border of Opulentus...
Ryner and his allies reach the wall of Opulentus, going around the entire country. An impressive feat and show of both power and wealth from Opulentus. Standing by the gate to get in, Ryner waits with his allies in a line of other travelers. Both he and his sister wear hooded cloaks to hide their pointed Manakete ears, worried they might be mistaken for Laguz. Lawrence stands by Ryner's side and tells him about Opulentus. "Recently, there have been Laguz bandit attacks in and around the city. So they've tightened up security." They both watch as one of the guards checks someone for Laguz ears, taking their hat off. "We might need a better way to sneak you two in. I think I have an idea..."
Ryner and Lute both hop inside of large barrels that Lysea places on Tor's back and the group starts to walk toward the gate, being stopped by guards. "Hold it. What's your business here in Opulentus?"
Lawrence steps up and speaks for the group. "We are simply a group of traveling merchants from Glaewood. We wish to sell some of our goods. We have various crops."
"Hm. Would you mind if I took a look at them?"
"Of course not." Lawrence turns and motions for Nate to step up. He does so while holding a large barrel.
"Well? What are you waiting for? Open it."
Nate feels sweat starting to form as he nervously takes open the top. The guard reaches in the barrel and pulls out a vegetable. As he does so, Nate lets out a deep sigh of relief.
"Alright, you're good to go." The group starts to walk along again before the guard stops them again. "Hold on. One more thing. You look rather tense, young man. Try to relax. You're safe here in Opulentus."
Nate nods to the guard and shakily thanks him. "Y-Yeah! Of course! I'll try to lighten up a bit."
"That's the spirit. Now go on ahead. I'm sure your vegetables are much needed at the markets." The group leaves and the soldier stands there, looking after them as they walk down into the town. "These Laguz sure have everyone worked up. It's terrible to see everyone cowering like this behind the walls. But our defenses are impenetrable. So I have no doubts that we will all be safe from harm."
"Alexander! What are you doing? You might be the youngest of us, but that's no reason to slack off." A towering man in golden armor stands over the soldier.
"Sorry, brother. I was just thinking about the people in these walls and our job to protect them."
"Well don't go around daydreaming. If you don't pay attention, you could end up getting yourself killed like Quila."
The soldier looks pained as he says those words. "...Yes, I understand. I am sorry."
"Don't apologize to me. Just remember to keep your focus on your mission. I understand that losing two sisters in such a short amount of time can be heartbreaking, but we must remain strong. If we do not, then we will surely fall. Cast your feelings aside and focus on the task at hand. There will be time for grieving later."
Alexander nods and the two return to their job, protecting the walls.

Chapter 8 - The Princess and The Wolf
"This is it, Garu. We're nearing the front lines of the war." Kress speaks solemnly.
"Yes. Are you scared?"
"...No. I am not afraid. This is what I've been fighting for. I am not afraid to die here, fighting in what I believe in. For the people in my land and for Laguz everywhere."
"Then I will match your resolve."
Argentum comes running in, shifting out of Kitsune form. "I scouted the area. The enemies there seem nearly endless. But I believe we can do this with the power of the Nightstone. We're all counting on you, Kress. And I will be there with you every step of the way." Kress nods.
"Alright." Kress turns to face her allies. "This is the biggest battle any of us will have ever been in. Some of us may not make it out alive, but we will fight on in the name of freedom and justice! Even if we fall, our sacrifice will not be for nothing! Opulentus will fall!" Her allies let out a cheer.
As they head out to the battlefield, they watch as the entire field is filled with soldiers from both Opulentus and Sidhe, battling each other.

"Alright, everyone in formation! We're approaching the cavaliers!" The group follows Kress' commands and they march over toward the cavaliers, getting in a defensive stance as the enemies begin to charge toward them.
As the enemies ride in they seem to mostly avoid fighting against Argentum, likely seeing him as too powerful an opponent. Seraphim is the first to find enemies coming toward her, blocking one of the enemy swords from hitting her with her shield, but getting hit by the second. She manages to hit both of them once with her lance, but doesn't move fast enough to hit them again. In front of her, Jess manages to jump over an attacking enemy and take it out from behind, only to be stabbed by another one. She takes out the second enemy as well with ease, noticing her claws and fangs are extra effective on the cavalry units. Bunbun expertly evades incoming attacks, jumping from place to place and landing kicks on the enemies, dealing some decent damage to each one near him. Kress and Kit then stand close by to each other as cavaliers surround them. While Kit manages to dive under the first enemy that swings their sword, Kress tanks the blows coming her way and knocks the enemies away with raw power. Kit takes down her enemies one at a time, using a few hits on each before they fall.

"Huh? Hey, Kress, I found a thing! Maybe we can use it to win!" Kit picks up the Armorslayer from a defeated Cavalier.
"We don't have any allies that use swords."
"Oh, I guess I'll just hold onto it for now then."
"Keep an eye on the enemy. More are approaching." Kress points out the soldiers, fighters, and mages marching closer toward the group.
It's then an unfamiliar voice sounds from the distance, followed by the sounds of another army marching into battle. "Good, it looks like we got here in time to help."
Coming to Kress' aid is the princess of Umbra herself, Elay. "I hope you don't mind our lateness. But a late ally is better than none at all. I am Princess Elay, from Umbra, here to help you. Father sent me and it looks like you could use the help, judging from the number of our enemies."
"The princess of Umbra. Now is no time for formalities. Focus on the task at hand."
"Right. Everyone, follow...um, sorry, what was your name again?"
"Kress."
"Follow Kress' orders!"
On the other side of the battlefield, the enemy tactician notices the enemy forces nearly double in number. "So Umbra finally showed up too, huh? Call for the mercenaries! We're going to attack them from both the front and back! They won't survive a full on assault on both sides!"

"Oh, you're bleeding." Claire walks up to Kit and points out the fact she's bleeding. "Here you go, bleeding cat."
Kit recovers 19 health 23/23 HP
"Hey, thanks! Sorry I don't have time to play. We have to kill the bad guys first!"
Gerand then runs up to Jess. "Excuse me, Miss Kitsune, you have a bad wound. Allow me to heal it."
Jess recovers 27 health 21/21 HP
"Thank you so much! My name's Jess by the way, what's yours?"
"Gerand, Lady Elay's butler. However, now does not appear to be a good time for introductions. Let's get acquainted later, shall we?"
"Oh, right."
Meanwhile, Luna rides over to Kress and quickly heals her.
Kress recovers 30 health 25/25 HP
"Let's clean up these cavaliers." Faron takes out his light tome and quickly makes a motion with his hand, launching a ball of light into an injured cavalier and taking it out. Kaiz follows his lead, firing a couple of arrows into another to take it down. Shizuka then runs over to the other cavalier, throwing a knife into them before jumping over them and stabbing them in the back for the finishing blow. Elay then jumps up in the air and brings Excalibur down on the last cavalier, smashing it into him with incredible force.

Elay and Lupis both move on ahead to take on the incoming fighters together. The enemies split into groups of five with each group taking on one of them. As the fighters approach, the all swing their axes toward Elay, but she manages to evade the attacks, gracefully dodging and slashing back at her enemies. One of them manages to hit her, but she quickly ends the battle, swinging Excalibur in a circle and taking down the remaining enemies in her group. Lupis manages to tank most of the enemy hits, ignoring them and striking back while Kain keeps a couple of them too busy to strike. Together, the two of them manage to weaken the enemies efficiently and still stand with minimal injuries.

Garren, Seraphim, and Arc then all head toward the enemy Soldiers, preparing to defend against them. Two of them attack Garren and Arc while one goes after Seraphim. Garren easily blocks out the attacks that are sent his way while Seraphim sidesteps the enemy lances. Arc takes the hits, but blocks out most of the damage. Seraphim makes quick work of her opponent, using a quick jab to break through their guard before slamming her lance over their head. Garren uses a wide swing of his axe, knocking back one of the enemy soldiers while the other steps back, avoiding the attack. Arc looks down at her enemies, unimpressed. “With the power of light, I will smite you!” She quickly swings her lance at one of the enemy soldiers twice, knocking them up in the air before charging forward on her horse, skewering both soldiers in one stab and causing a burst of light from her blessed lance.

While they finish fighting off the soldiers, Darik steps forward, in the way of the enemy mages. “Sorry, but you’re going to have to get through me if you want to touch Elay. Don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll look amazing while you explode into a thousand pieces.” As the mages create flaming pillars around Darik, he takes them out one at a time, causing them to explode in the darkness of his Nosferatu tome. For every attack they send at him, he immediately heals all damage while taking out another one of them. Finally, the last mage performs a special form of his spell, creating a large magic circle beneath Darik before a powerful explosion detonates, showering him in flames. “Agh! That one’s actually good. Sorry, loved the effort, but now I have to kill you.” Darik takes out the last mage with an explosion of dark energy, stealing some of his life to heal himself. “Whew, what a workout. Maybe this fight will actually be challenging.”

With the fighting dying down a bit, more enemies appear from behind. Ten cavaliers and five mages. Arc’s lance glows and bathes her in a golden light.
Arc recovers 10 health 26/26 HP
“Quila...Even though you are no longer here, I can feel your blessing in this lance. You fight at our side in spirit. Perhaps your spirit realizes that we are fighting for what is right…”
“Alright, what’s the plan, Kress?” Elay stands with Excalibur at the ready.
“Hmm…” Kress quickly surveys the battlefield.
