| abstract | - Crowe: It was close. Kurt: No, I was never close. Crowe: It's the same Valkyrur from Barious is it. Kurt: There was nothing I could do. Crowe: As it stands there is nothing we can do. If she appears we withdraw. Crowe: Thanks to the assasination attempt, we might be able to keep that monster within those walls at Ghirlandaio. Crowe: That might be something we gained from the failed mission. Kurt: Let's hope it is that way. Crowe: By the way, that Valkyrur's a pretty sweet looking thing. Kurt: Are you telling me what you saw? Crowe: As if I ever get the chance to go to the frontlines. Crowe: Enough with the jokes. You will join up with the northern occupation forces for the next operation. It seems something special's prepared for the Nameless. Kurt: By special, what do you mean? Crowe: There will be more instructions for you on-site probably. That's the norm for you guys isn't it. Get cracking. Kurt: Yes sir. Lydia: Captain Dahau's pet squad seems to have been exorcised by our crimson eyed silver wolf. Dahau: They've managed to force Maximillian's trump card into action. That much is worth praise. Dahau: That aside, how does Maximillian take to the whole affair? Dahau: Zig, what would you do? Concentrate your efforts on defense? Or send them away for an assault? Zig: I'd use the Valkyrur as my center of defense and have my forces on an all-out attack. Dahau: That's probably what Maximillian has in mind as well. It would be the correct choice of action as a commander of the army, he'd want to give the credit of the victory to the men who fought the war. Dahau: However if I were to be in his shoes, I'd have the Valkyrur head towards the frontlines one time and decimate the morale of the enemy. The soldiers can do the rest of the work. Dahau: Unfortunately he would not be in a position to do that. Gregor and Jaeger both have their reputation to uphold. Even he would have his pride damaged if he were to have won the war using Selvaria's powers. Dahau: The position of royalty gets in the way of the most efficient course of action. Zig: So from Sir's point of view the prince is still too naive. Dahau: Even with that pride he is an individual that comes once every 100 years. As a soldier he has his drawbacks. Dahau: Those drawbacks are a blessing for he needs us. Zig: That was a splendid observation! Sir, you are the hope of all Darcsen! Dahau: Zig, there is a mission crucial to our victory that I need you for. Will you do it for me? Zig: Yes sir! Leave it to me! Lydia: That was a great explanation, but does the boy actually understand any of that.. Kurt: We will stop in the village today. Everyone, make preparations for camp. Kurt: Imca, can you handle guard duty? Imca: ... Kurt: Imca? Imca: I am not well.. Sorry. Kurt: ..Okay. Riela, can you perform guard duty? Riela: ... Kurt: Riela! Riela: Yes?! Nothing! It's nothing! Kurt: What's going on with you? You're daydreaming. Riela: Sorry.. I'll be careful. Kurt: Hm. Kurt: Gusurg, I have something I need to consult with you. Gusurg: What's the matter? Kurt: Imca and Riela don't seem their usual selves, what do you think I should do? Gusurg: Sorry, I'm not feeling up for that kind of talk myself either. Kurt: Well.. I see, sorry for bothering you. Kurt: With the 3 of them out of commission this is going to be hard to handle.. 21: What's the matter Kurt, HQ gave us an impossible job again and you're fretting over that? 45: If I'm good enough for you we can talk about it. Annika: When a problem comes along. Instead of doing it alone, share it with us so we can worry about it together. Amy: If you're going to say that I think the correct word used there should be 'solve'.. Kurt: Sorry everyone, maybe I might be causing unnecessary stress on all of you, but here goes. Valerie: (An enemy attack! It's the Calamity Raven!) Kurt: Not now..! Everyone, prepare for battle! We will participate in the operation led by the regulars. Our target is Zwolle. We need to rendezvous with the regulars as soon as we can. And in order to do that.. The Calamity Ravens have launched a surprise attack on us, we need to defeat them. After defeating the Ravens, we will proceed as planned and meet up with the regular army and receive further instructions. After receiving our new orders, we will carry them out and together with the regulars wipe out all Imperials that have taken up garrison within the city. The northern Imperial forces are said to have rock solid defenses. But the city of Zwolle is going to be an important foothold for the rest of the war. We need to win this at all costs.
