Opening Scene
(Scene opens with Lord Helman and Ephidel) (Scene transition to the lords outside) (Boies leaves)
 * Helman: Master Ephidel! What is the meaning of this?
 * Ephidel: Peace, Lord Helman. Whatever is wrong?
 * Helman: You said you were just going to frighten Eliwood! Your men almost killed him! My patience is at an end! I've decided I must tell Eliwood everything and apologize.
 * Ephidel: .......You would betray us?
 * Helman: I am tired of you and the Black Fang! Now, remove yourself from my castle! Your presence pains me!
 * Ephidel: Lord Helman... Is there nothing I can do to change your mind?
 * Helman: Nothing.
 * Ephidel: In that case...you're no longer of any use.
 * Helman: Gaa...urrgh...
 * Hector: There's the castle, Eliwood! Hm? Who's there? Show yourself!
 * Boies: Pah! Can't believe I was spotted by a snot-nosed stripling...
 * Hector: Who are you? No, never mind. Keep your name. Why should I care what a corpse is called?
 * Boies: The cub thinks he's a wolf! Does your bite match your bark? Tell you what. If you make it to the castle alive, we'll find out, eh? Geh heh heh hehhh!

(Scene transition to Guy) (The mercenary leaves)
 * Mercenary: Hey, you! Yeah, the new dog! Get this right, or you're gone!
 * Guy: I know, I know. I just got this job! I don't want to lose it!
 * Guy: 'Course, the smart thing to do would have been not to get involved with this ugly bunch. Got to have gold if I want to eat, though. I was too picky before. If I think about the time I passed out in Caelin... Ooooh. Nothing funny about that! That man... What was his name... Matthew? If it hadn't been for him, I would've starved to death...
 * Mercenary: What are you mumbling about? Get over here now!
 * Guy: Yes, yes, I'm coming! At least I've got work!

Before Battle

 * Matthew: Say, Mark. Not sure how to say this... You're a full-blown tactician now, aren't you? Not just an apprentice like before. Ha ha... No need to be so modest. My lord tactician! I humbly await your no-doubt brilliant orders!
