Birds of a Feather/Script

Chapter Narration
''After speaking with the village magistrate, Eliwood and company set their sights on Laus. The road from Pherae to Laus passes through Santaruz. Eliwood suspects his missing father must have visited Santaruz en route to Ostia. Eliwood arranges a meeting with the local ruling lord to see what he can learn.''

Chapter Narration
''Hector leaves Ostia. He moves towards Santaruz to meet up with Eliwood as quickly as possible. He encounters a mysterious group whose dark garb hide an even darker secret. Perhaps these same powers have turned their blades on Eliwood...Hector hurries south, praying for his friend's safety.''

Opening Scene
(Scene transition as Hector enters the map)
 * Matthew: Lord Hector! I have it! I know where Lord Eliwood is. He entered Santaruz not far from here.
 * Hector: Is that so? We've read his movements fairly well, then. Let's move due south and cross the border. We'll meet up with him in Santaruz!
 * Serra: Ah! There you are! Lord Hector!
 * Matthew: Oh, no...
 * Hector: Serra? W-What... What are you doing here?
 * Serra: You're going to meet Lord Eliwood, right? Well, I want to go, too!
 * Hector: Go home! This is no game.
 * Serra: But Oswin told me it was all right to come!
 * Hector: Oswin?
 * Oswin: Yes, my lord. On the marquess's orders. Serra and I will be accompanying you.
 * Hector: Bah. This is ridiculous. Always have to have the last word, eh, Brother?
 * Oswin: No matter what you think, he's just worried about you, Lord Hector. You're the only family he has.
 * Hector: I know...
 * Matthew: Lord Hector! Up ahead! There appears to be fighting.
 * Hector: Where? Is it Eliwood? Come! Let's get closer! Hurry! Oswin! Matthew!
 * Matthew: Yes, my lord!
 * Serra: Oh! Wait for me! I'm coming, too!
 * Hector: Hey! What's going on over there? Looks like some rough business. You! Soldier! Are you just going to stand there and watch?
 * Soldier: Who do you think you are? This is Santaruz. What occurs here is no affair of any foreign lordling!
 * Hector: I believe I'm going to have to disagree with you. You see, the man they're attacking happens to be a friend of mine.
 * Soldier: A friend? What? ...Urrrgh!!
 * Hector: Sorry, but I'm in a hurry.
 * Serra: Ewww! That's terrible! I loathe violence!
 * Matthew: Nicely done, my lord! You're a fighter born.
 * Oswin: I cannot condone resorting to force so quickly...
 * Hector: Chastise me later, Oswin. First, we deal with these brigands! Come! We must help Eliwood!
 * Oswin: Help Eliwood? Sounds like a convenient excuse for more violence.
 * Hector: Oswin!
 * Oswin: Yes, yes. I'm coming!
 * Hector: Matthew! Bring Serra and follow along.
 * Matthew: What! With...Serra?
 * Serra: No! I want to go with you now!
 * Hector: Absolutely not! You'll slow us down! zzz
 * Serra: Oh! How rude!
 * Hector: Oswin! Let's go!
