You're late.

Seeing as you've been out so much,
I guess you haven't heard the news.

We've heard that the Crimson Blades
are heading towards the prairie.

We think they are in danger,
so we will provide support.

I don't know exactly why they are there.
I hope they haven't done anything rash.

....

Do you have something to say?

No. Just that...perhaps this support is a bit excessive for mercenaries.

Excessive? Is it excessive to provide essential aid for comrades who are in danger?

Do you consider...the mercenaries our comrades?

What EACTLY [sic] are you trying to say, cadet?

Ah, nothing, sir. Nevermind.

... There's no time, so we'll talk later.
Get going.

Huh?
<Lann>, why are you here...?

That's our line, I believe.
What are the Blades doing out here?

Do you have any idea the effort
we've made to provide Royal Army support for you?

Pfft. Did anyone even ask for their support...?

What was that? Next time, speak up like a real man.

Forget it.
Right now, we need to get out of here.

I'll explain everything when we get back.

Very well.

Everyone, pull back!

Why did the Blades act without orders?
Surely you know there are consequences for such actions.

And what is that supposed to mean to us?
We're mercenaries, not part of the Royal Army.

We can act when we want to act.
We don't need anybody's authorization.

I've mentioned this before, but the investigations into the incidents at Colhen are ongoing.

Until they conclude, mercenary operations are forbidden without authorization.

So...why should we listen to you?
We don't need orders.

Why is the Royal Army following us everywhere we go?

Haha, you two look really close.

Brakis!

No way!
And who are you?

Whoever you are, that is not true at all.

Indeed. Come now, Brakis.
Don't say such things.

Haha, nevermind then.
But...you two really aren't that close?

No!

No!

Well, all right. All right.
But you two really do look close...

Brakis!

Haha, I said all right.
But that's so... Haha.
