Field of the Eagle and Lion

Narration

Wyvern Moon

From on high, flocks of wyverns roar in chorus and soar the pristine skies, heading south for the winter. Fódlan's children lend their hands to winter preparations by gathering firewood and catching fish from the rivers' cool waters. Yet all the while their gazes are turned skyward, drawn to the magnificent sight above.

Event: Battle of the Eagle and Lion

Blue Lions route

Reception Hall | Daytime

(Byleth stands with Dimitri and Dedue)

• Dimitri: The Battle of the Eagle and Lion is finally upon us! This is our chance to show off the results of your expert training, Professor.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Battle of the Eagle and Lion?
  • Choice 2: It slipped my mind. (Relationship with Dimitri down)
• Dimitri:
  • Choice 1: Have Lady Rhea and Seteth really not filled you in? Well, if that's the case, I'm happy to explain.
  • Choice 2: Haha, I highly doubt that. If you don't mind, I'd be happy to explain.
• Dimitri: The Battle of the Eagle and Lion takes place every year during the Wyvern Moon. It can best be described as a mock battle between the three houses.
• Dedue: Much like the one we had during the Great Tree Moon. Do you remember, Professor?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Yes, I remember.
  • Choice 2: I remember our celebration most of all. (Relationship with Dimitri up)
    • Dimitri: It was certainly an unforgettable time. I've never seen anyone put away as much victory food as you did that night, Professor!
• Dimitri: This battle will take place in Empire territory, at Gronder Field. In other words, far removed from the monastery. It's a mock battle between the three houses. The house that defeats the most opponents wins.
• Dedue: Your Highness, if the rumors are true, I believe Professor Manuela and Professor Hanneman will not be joining us.
• Dimitri: Ah, yes, right you are. Given recent events, Professor Manuela has opted to sit this one out. Since she won't be present, Professor Hanneman has decided to skip this year as well.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: In that case, I must sit out too. (Relationship with Manuela up)
  • Choice 2: What should I do?

(Manuela and Hanneman join them)

• Manuela: Oh, don't worry about us. You know you wanna see the kids in action.
• Dimitri: Professor Manuela! Are you feeling better already?
• Manuela: Thanks to all of you. But I'd only be a burden out there. My students don't need to see me collapsed. Well, not on the battlefield, anyway.
• Dedue: In that case, perhaps it is best that you sit this one out.
• Hanneman: Correct, we will not be participating. Regardless, do not expect victory to come easily. Or at all.
• Manuela: Well put. We've spent the past few months pushing our students to their limits. You can see me in the infirmary after they destroy you.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: If I'm the only professor present... (Relationship with Manuela down)
  • Choice 2: This doesn't seem fair... (Relationship with Hanneman up)
    • Manuela: Oh my, look at you. If you're as confident as all that, my students will walk all over you.
• Hanneman: We have taught our students well. There is no need to hold back. Challenge them with everything you have!

Golden Deer route

Reception Hall | Daytime

(Byleth stands with Claude and Hilda)

• Claude: It's finally time! The Battle of the Eagle and Lion at Gronder Field is this month. Don't tell me you forgot, Teach?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: It slipped my mind. (Relationship with Claude down)
  • Choice 2: I know little about it.
• Claude:
  • Choice 1: You're kidding! Come on, Teach, I need you to keep it together for me. Don't lose focus when it counts.
  • Choice 2: You're kidding! Didn't Rhea or Seteth fill you in? Guess I have to do everything myself around here.
• Claude: The Battle of the Eagle and Lion is one of the academy's annual traditions. It's a huge mock battle between the three rival houses.
• Hilda: But you know all about rivalry battles, Professor. There was one right after you got here, remember? I hear the Battle of the Eagle and Lion will be held in Gronder Field, far away from Garreg Mach.
• Claude: The house that defeats most opponents wins. It's a three-way battle that relies heavily on strategy. Sounds exciting, doesn't it?
• Hilda: Hey Claude, what about Professor Manuela? Do you think she'll be able to join us despite her injuries?
• Claude: I'm afraid she's sitting this one out, as is Professor Hanneman. (mimicking Professor Hanneman) "As my persistent rival will not be present, it only goes to follow that I must also sit out this year's battle. Now leave me be, Claude!"
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: In that case, I must sit out too. (Relationship with Manuela up)
  • Choice 2: What should I do?

(Manuela and Hanneman join them)

• Manuela: Oh, don't worry about us. You know you wanna see the kids in action.
• Claude: If it isn't our own Professor Manuela! All things considered, you're looking well.
• Manuela: Thanks to all of you. But I'd only be a burden out there. My students don't need to see me collapsed. Well, not on the battlefield, anyway.
• Hilda: Does that mean you really won't be joining us for the battle?
• Hanneman: Correct, we will not be participating. Regardless, do not expect victory to come easily. Or at all.
• Manuela: Well put. We've spent the past few months pushing our students to their limits. You can see me in the infirmary after they destroy you.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: If I'm the only professor present... (Relationship with Manuela down)
  • Choice 2: This doesn't seem fair... (Relationship with Hanneman up)
    • Manuela: Oh my, look at you. If you're as confident as all that, my students will walk all over you.
• Hanneman: We have taught our students well. There is no need to hold back. Challenge them with everything you have!

Explore

Sothis

• Sothis: Hmph. This monastery is more dangerous than I expected. It's likely that our foes have infiltrated the ranks of the teachers... And there may be others of questionable character about as well! If you ask me, there is something amiss about that old man...Tomas.

Edelgard

Do you need something?

• Monica: What do you say, Edel? Shall we meet up in the library later to... Oh! Hello, Professor!
• Edelgard: Do you need something? I'm a little busy at the moment.
• Monica: Sorry, Professor! I've got a lot of questions to ask Edel here. Since I couldn't graduate last year, I really want to make sure I can do so this year.

Dimitri

Blue Lions route

Do your best, Professor.

• Dimitri: The Battle of the Eagle and Lion... Its name comes from the war in which the Kingdom won its independence from the Empire. It's imperative that we fight our best. We must live up to the legacy of the King of Lions.

Claude

Other routes

I'd really like to win this battle...

• Claude: Going all the way to the Empire for a mock battle? This is serious business. And there's a reward to be had as well. I'd really like to win this thing.

Hubert

It will be a three-way contest.

• Hubert: The Battle of the Eagle and Lion is a free-for-all contest among the three classes. If you are victorious, the archbishop will no doubt present you with a reward.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Consider me motivated.
  • Choice 2: I'm not interest in rewards. (Relationship with Hubert up)
• Hubert: Just what I thought you'd say.

Ferdinand

Fódlan used to be quite different.

• Ferdinand: You know, the Empire used to control all of Fódlan. But after the civil war, the northern region split off and became the Kingdom. Later, the eastern part of the Kingdom seceded to become the Alliance. There are three powers today, but a thousand years ago, we were all united as one. Even now, among the nobles of the Empire, there are some who dream of reunifying Fódlan...

Linhardt

I'm so...tired....

• Linhardt: I'm just absolutely exhausted. I swear to you, Professor, every month we're worked harder than the month before. I had imagined the academy as a chance to possibly relax before our lives began in earnest.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: You came to the academy to relax?
  • Choice 2: It is what it is. (Relationship with Linhardt up)
• Linhardt:
  • Choice 1 response: After graduating, we'll enter into noble society, which mean contending with all the intrigues and dramas that entails. I want to just...postpone life for a bit. Fish... Nap under a tree... Skip out on lectures and– Well, not on your lectures of course, Professor.
  • Choice 2 response: Agreed. That's the Church of Seiros for you. What is it they say? "Those with power are obliged to use it."

Caspar

I love fishing!

• Caspar: Are you gonna participate in the fishing tournament, Professor?

Bernadetta

• Bernadetta: Hi, Professor. Want to know something? Gronder is in the territory of House Bergliez, in the Empire. That's right next to my home, the region of House Varley! Oh. Oh no. What if– What if my parents come to watch?! Aaah!
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Calm down.
  • Choice 2: I don't think nobles are allowed to watch. (Relationship with Bernadetta up)
• Bernadetta:
  • Choice 1 response: I'm calm! Of course I'm calm! Why wouldn't I be calm? Ugggh!
  • Choice 2 response: Really? Are you sure?! You wouldn't say that if you weren't completely sure, right?!

Dorothea

Ah, it's almost time!

• Dorothea: Fishing? No thanks. I tried it once, and...ugh. Gross. I don't even really like to eat fish, let alone catch and gut them. Besides, who can think about fishing right now? The Battle of the Eagle and Lion is coming up soon. Feeling confident?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Very. (Relationship with Dorothea up)
  • Choice 2: Not really.
• Dorothea:
  • Choice 1 response: That's the spirit!
  • Choice 2 response: Oh, have a little faith in yourself, Professor. You'll do fine, I'm sure of it.

Petra

I enjoy catching the fish.

• Petra: I fished with frequency back in Brigid. I will not have losing. Will you be trying to fish too?

Monica

What do you say, Edel?

• Monica: What do you say, Edel? Shall we meet up in the library later to... Oh! Hello, Professor!
• Edelgard: Do you need something? I'm a little busy at the moment.
• Monica: Sorry, Professor! I've got a lot of questions to ask Edel here. Since I couldn't graduate last year, I really want to make sure I can do so this year.

Dedue

Did you want something?

Before the Fishing Tournament

• Dedue: The Battle of the Eagle and Lion draws near. His Highness insists upon training well into the night. He has said it is nothing to worry about. But how could I not be concerned?

After the Fishing Tournament

• Dedue: Ever since the tournament, the kitchen is completely overtaken with fish. The cooks cannot keep up.

Felix

Hmph.

Before the Fishing Tournament

• Felix: I'm not interested in glory or prizes. All I want is a formidable enemy to sink my teeth into. As far as I can see, there are only a couple of opponents worth my time.

After the Fishing Tournament

• Felix: Since we were little, Ingrid's always gotten this old look in her eye when someone brings up food.

Ashe

I'm pretty good at fishing...

• Ashe: You know, I'm pretty good at fishing. My older brother used to take me out. Why don't you give it a try too? They say we can eat whatever we catch!

Sylvain

Gotta get ready...

• Sylvain: A fishing tournament, huh? Sounds fun, but not as fun as reeling in the ladies. Heh! Just kidding, of course. The most important thing right now is preparing for the Battle of the Eagle and Lion. After all, the ladies love nothing more than a winner. And around here, there's no bigger game.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: That's the wrong reason to compete.
  • Choice 2: I'm sure they do. (Relationship with Sylvain up)
• Sylvain:
  • Choice 1 response: Everyone has their own reasons to fight. At least I'm honest about mine.
  • Choice 2 response: I knew you'd understand, Professor.

Mercedes

Death Knight...

• Mercedes: Hmm... Ah! I'm so sorry! I was lost in thought.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: You seem a bit down. (Relationship with Mercedes up)
  • Choice 2: What were you thinking about?
• Mercedes:
  • Choice 1 response: It's very kind of you to be concerned, but I promise that I'm fine. I was just thinking... The Death Knight's true identity. Could it actually be Professor Jeritza?
  • Choice 2 response: The Death Knight's true identity. Could it actually be Professor Jeritza?

Annette

I wonder how we'll get there...

• Annette: Gronder Field is in the Empire, right? I wonder how we'll get there. I thought I heard that there's no path that goes straight from the monastery to the Empire... Oh! Perhaps we'll travel through Alliance territory. Yes, I see, from the east, we would go...hm, there! Ah, yes, that must be it!

Ingrid

Professor...

• Ingrid: Holding such a frivolous and downright ridiculous event so close to the Battle of the Eagle and Lion... It's absolutely absurd. Although...they did say we could eat whatever we catch. I'm a sucker for a good meal...I just couldn't resist.

Lorenz

In my father's time...

• Lorenz: I received a rare letter from my father recently. He said that he is praying for the Golden Deer House to emerge victorious. Insistently praying. My father attended the Officers Academy, and won a glorious victory in the Battle of the Eagle and Lion. I think he is quite proud of that, even to this day. I suppose that shows how great an honor it truly is.

Raphael

Fish! Fish! Fish! Eat! Eat! Eat!

• Raphael: Hey, Professor! Did you hear about the fishing tournament? You get to fish in the pond as much as you want. The more you catch, the more you get to eat!

Ignatz

This is nice.

• Ignatz: Sometimes it's nice to dangle a fishing line and let your mind wander. I'd love to spend some time lounging around by a scenic river or lake.

Lysithea

Ugh, what a mess.

• Lysithea: Why would we go all the way to Gronder Field? It's idiocy to travel that far. It may be a tradition, but it takes forever to get there and is exhausting. So pointless. I guess there's nothing to be done about it. Even by you, Professor.

Marianne

I'm not sure about this...

• Marianne: Excuse me, Professor. Um, do you think it would reflect poorly on me if I chose not to take part in the Battle of the Eagle and Lion?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Yes, it would.
  • Choice 2: Don't you want to participate? (Relationship with Marianne up)
• Marianne:
  • Choice 1 response: Oh, I see...
  • Choice 2 response: Well, I don't really want to leave the monastery...
• Marianne: I'm not very confident, but I'll try my best.

Hilda

Something seems off...

• Hilda: Professor, do you have a second? It's about Monica. Does she seem...off to you? She was imprisoned for a long time, but she seems to have recovered almost instantly, and she's been bizarrely cheerful.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Now that you mention it... (Relationship with Hilda up)
  • Choice 2: She's moving on. Isn't that a good thing?
• Hilda:
  • Choice 1 response: You see what I mean? I wonder if she's straining to seem happy, just to make people comfortable.
  • Choice 2 response: I guess you're right. It just seems fast, doesn't it?
• Hilda: Hmm... And why is she so close to Edelgard anyway?

Leonie

A fishing tournament? Now?

• Leonie: Why are they having a fishing tournament now? Are they just giving up on the battle of the Eagle and Lion?! You're not condoning this, right? Are you?!

Rhea

We must put this behind us...

• Rhea: The situation last month was dire indeed. The students endured great hardship. I hope you are able to put all of that behind you so that you may focus on this month's assignment.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Of course.
  • Choice 2: It will be difficult. (Relationship with Rhea up)
• Rhea:
  • Choice 1 response: A most reassuring response. I trust that your class is in good hands.
  • Choice 2 response: That is to be expected. I, too, cannot quite shake that feeling of unease. Even so, we must both strive to put that nasty business behind us.
• Rhea: I look forward to seeing your skills on display at the Battle of the Eagle and Lion.

Seteth

Something for Flayn...

After the Fishing Tournament

• Seteth: I have something to ask of you.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: What is it?
  • Choice 2: Leave it to me. (Relationship with Seteth up)
    • Seteth: I have not even told you what my request is yet! Well, fine.
• Seteth: Flayn has been through an awful lot this past month. To make up for that, I have decided to give her whatever she wants. I asked her what she would like, and she expressed a desire for a feast of fish. Since I'm sure the students would be interested, I have decided to hold a fishing tournament here at the monastery. I have left all of the specifics to Shamir. Please, enter and put in your best effort.

After the Fishing Tournament

• Seteth:I hear that you participated in the fishing tournament. I appreciate you taking the time.

Flayn

I did not know I would cause such a fuss...

• Flayn: I told my brother I had a craving for some tasty fish. I did not realize when I did that it would turn into...well, this. My apologies.

Alois

Just you wait!

• Alois: I'm going to catch me some mighty fish, just you wait and see! Er, but they haven't been biting...
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Your shouting is scaring the fish. (Relationship with Alois up)
  • Choice 2: Maybe the fish are frightened by you. (Relationship with Alois up)
• Alois:
  • Choice 1 response: What shouting? Everyone told me I was too loud, so I've been using my quiet voice.
  • Choice 2 response: I didn't think of that. Ah, the truth is right in front of me... (laughs) Just kidding. As though a fish is smart enough to be afraid of me.

Catherine

Well, well.

• Catherine: Can you believe what Seteth said? "Catch some tasty fish for Flayn." I'm her bodyguard!

Shamir

Before the Fishing Tournament

Welcome to the fishing tournament.

• Shamir: Welcome to the monastery fishing tournament. You look confused. Didn't Seteth tell you about it? Just catch whatever fish Flayn requests. Show any fish you catch to Flayn.

After the Fishing Tournament

The tournament's over.

• Shamir: The fishing tournament is over. I heard you did some fishing, and that Flayn is happy.

Gilbert

A fishing tournament?

• Gilbert: Professor, has Seteth told you? We're to have a fishing tournament. Given the events of the last month, I believe this is just the sort of distraction we need, staff and student alike.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Will you take part?
  • Choice 2: Are you good at fishing? (Relationship with Gilbert up)
• Gilbert:
  • Choice 1 response: I'm afraid I am not one for festivities. I do enjoy a spot of fishing, though.
  • Choice 2 response: I do enjoy the sport, yet I wouldn't say I'm particularly good at it.
• Gilbert: I believe it best that I stick to quietly fishing by myself.

Jeralt

How are preparations going?

• Jeralt: The recent happenings at the monastery... There is something going on behind the scenes here. I've been commissioned to investigate as well. As I've already mentioned, this month I'm off to the Kingdom. You be on your guard, OK?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: I'm not worried.
  • Choice 2: I'm more worried about you than myself.
• Jeralt:
  • Choice 1 response: Well, I hope you're right.
  • Choice 2 response: (laughs) Perhaps I've gotten into your head too much! I won't go dying on you. I've stayed alive this long, after all.

(Note: If speaking to Jeralt after accepting the Fishing Tournament Quest, the conversation will begin with:)

• Jeralt: How are preparations for the Battle of the Eagle and Lion going? Hm? Fishing? Taking it easy, are you?

Hanneman

Have I told you about Flayn?

• Hanneman: I don' t know if you've heard, but Flayn is very special. Her blood carries a rare Crest... Oh, the lengths to which she could add to my research, if only I was allowed to study her! If only it weren't for Seteth's strict orders! He protects his sister with unusual zeal.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: You should give up. (Relationship with Hanneman up)
  • Choice 2: Maybe you can convince him.
• Hanneman:
  • Choice 1 response: I dislike it, but I agree. The time I would spend begging him and accomplishing nothing would be better spent on other research.
  • Choice 2 response: Have you ever tried convincing Seteth of anything? I'm not sure I could convince the man the sky is blue if he hadn't already looked up for himself.

Manuela

I really screwed up this time...

• Manuela: I always thought I was pretty good, you know? Then I go and get stabbed. Ugh... But my opponent was the Death Knight, so I figure I did pretty well to only get stabbed. I wonder if it's true that he is actually Jeritza... Whoever he is...I'm going to make him pay. It turns out that when I get stabbed, I get really mad!
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: He hurt you this time. Next time he may kill you.
  • Choice 2: I'll help you get revenge. (Relationship with Manuela up)
• Manuela: I'm not going to let him get the better of me again!

Tomas

The Battle of the Eagle and Lion...

• Tomas: When you feel that first refreshing breeze upon your face, you know it is almost time for the Battle of the Eagle and Lion. Gronder Field is within the Empire, but the path there from the monastery necessitates passing through Alliance territory. Fódlan's biggest river, the Airmid River, flows along the border between the Empire and the Alliance. You will have to cross one of the largest bridges upon that river, the Great Bridge of Myrddin.

Cyril

Fódlan is pretty darn big...

• Cyril: Fódlan is big. It's not as big as Almyra is, but it's still pretty big.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Do you want to travel around Fódlan someday? (Relationship with Cyril up)
  • Choice 2: Do you want to go home to Almyra?
• Cyril:
  • Choice 1 response: Travel? I don't know... Never thought about it, I guess.
  • Choice 2 response: Why do you think I would want to do that?

Gatekeeper

What's the world coming to?

• Gatekeeper: Greetings, Professor! Nothing to report! Young Monica disappeared last year. I thought she had simply run along home. But it turns out she was kidnapped! I can't believe it. How awful it must have been for the poor thing. They say her personality is completely changed, but at least she seems more cheerful than before. Grateful to be alive, perhaps?

Knight of Seiros at the Training Grounds

Did you hear about Jeritza?

• Knight of Seiros: Along with Flayn, we found another female student who went missing last year. But now the combat professor, Jeritza, has vanished. His origin begged many questions, so there were plenty of objections to his appointment here. He is apparently from House Hrym of the Empire, but he was adopted from another family. Or so they say... Anyway, there hasn't been much good to be said about House Hrym in recent decades.

Squire at the Knights' Hall

I don't believe it.

• Squire: The Death Knight's true identity... Personally, I don't think it could be Jeritza. He taught me swordsmanship... He said I had talent and the potential to get pretty strong. He was a little scary, of course...but it's hard for me to believe he's a bad person.

Student at the Dormitory

Nothing better than fresh fish.

• Student: Having a fishing tournament before the Battle of the Eagle and Lion... At first I couldn't figure out what they were thinking. But the fish are especially tasty this time of year, so I don't question it anymore! Have you had any, Professor? You'd better eat up before it's all gone!

Student in the Cathedral

Hey, did you know?

• Student: Oh, hi, Professor. Have you heard the rumor about the Goddess Tower? Well, there's an annual ball here the month after next, during the Ethereal Moon. They say if a boy and a girl wish for something together at the Goddess Tower on that night, the goddess herself will grant it! I don't know where the rumor started, but it's a great story, isn't it?

Monk in front of the Cathedral

Let me tell you about it...

• Monk: After the Battle of the Eagle and Lion, a prize is awarded to the winner by the archbishop herself. It's a three-way battle, so you can't waste too much time just observing. You have to jump right in there. You have to be proactive and defeat the most opponents. Do that, and it's quite possible the archbishop will recognize how strong you are. Ah... Great memories. I was a student here many years ago. I know what I speak of.

Raphael

(After entering)

Caspar

(After entering)

• Caspar: So, you are joining the fishing tournament? That's great! But you don't stand a chance against me! I just caught this beauty! I bet you can't catch a bigger one of the same kind.

You're likely to beat Caspar if you have a fish with a rarity of 2 stars or higher.

(After fishing)

• Caspar: All right, let's see what you got!

(Bigger fish)

• Caspar: I...I lost? But how? Ugh! I guess I underestimated you, Professor.
• Gained Iron Axe x1

(After tournament)

• Caspar: I wasn't expecting much, but this tournament was a lot of fun.

Petra

(After entering)

• Petra: I am happy that you will have participation. Maybe you and I both can have a small contest with each other? We will both have catching of the same fish type and do comparisons. Whoever has the fish with the biggest size will be winning. OK?

You're likely to beat Petra if you have a fish with a rarity of 3 stars or higher.

(After fishing)

• Petra: Show me the fish so we can see whose has the biggest size. I will have comparisons now.

(Bigger fish)

• Petra: Your fish has way more size. I have had losing... I mean, I have lost.
• Gained Iron Sword x1

(After tournament)

• Petra: This created more fun than I have experienced in a long time. Did you also have the fun?

Catherine

(After entering)

• Catherine: Have you thought about entering? Maybe you and I could have a little friendly competition. I just caught this fish here. Why don't you try catching a bigger one of the same type?

You're likely to beat Catherine if you have a fish with a rarity of 4 stars or higher.

(After fishing)

• Catherine: Oh, you've caught one! Let me see...

(Bigger fish)

• Catherine: Nice, you beat me! This is for you.
• Gained Steel Sword x1

(After tournament)

• Catherine: I guess that's it. That was fun, wasn't it?

Quest Completion

• Shamir: The fishing tournament is over. Flayn seemed overjoyed, and I'm certain that pleased Seteth as well.

The Best of the Best (Soldier in the Knights' Hall)

Receiving the Quest

Well?

• Soldier: The knights of the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus are seeking someone to train with. Kingdom knight are certainly tough, but I bet you could keep up.

Good luck!

Banish the Bandits (Soldier at the Gate)

Receiving the Quest

I'm gonna need some help.

• Soldier: Some bandits are making trouble in a nearby village. Normally we would assist, but right now we have our hands full with this Lord Lonato business. So many to help, so little time. What do we do?

How are you faring?

Event: Field of Three

Blue Lions route

Gronder Field (Empire Territory) | Daytime

• Dimitri: So, this is to be our battlefield...Gronder Field. Are you feeling confident, Professor?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: Very. (Relationship with Dimitri up)
  • Choice 2: I'm not sure. (Relationship with Dimitri down)
• Dimitri:
  • Choice 1 response: Excellent. That's most reassuring.
  • Choice 2 response: We've seen your power firsthand, so we know better than anyone what you're capable of. Beyond that, we believe in you. If it's not too big a burden, I ask that you believe in us as well.
• Dimitri: We can win. I'm sure of it. After all, it's not as though we've spent the last half-year sitting idle. And I'm feeling stronger this moon. As though I could conquer a thousand opponents all on my own.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: That's reassuring. (Relationship with Dimitri up)
  • Choice 2: Don't get carried away...
• Dimitri:
  • Choice 1 response: You can depend on me. I hope you know that.
  • Choice 2 response: I'm only joking, of course... But perhaps it isn't a laughing matter. I beg your forgiveness. I must practice levity so that I can provide a more enjoyable joke when the opportunity next presents itself. After all, I hear that telling jokes is a good way to calm the nerves before heading into battle. Still...I find it quite difficult.
• Dimitri: Well, it's about time for the battle to begin. Everyone, brace yourselves.
• Felix: Hmph. All I'm worried about is finding someone worthy to cross swords with.
• Mercedes: We've prepared and trained a great deal. We should be fine, right?
• Annette: You're always so carefree, Mercie! Don't forget we need to try our hardest out there so we can win!
• Ashe: This is our chance to show how hard we've been working! Let's do our best.
• Sylvain: If I emerge victorious in the lauded Battle of the Eagle and Lion, the ladies are sure to take notice. I'll have to go into hiding.
• Ingrid: Ugh, is that all you think about? Actually, as long as you try your hardest, frame it however you like.
• Flayn: Haha, I shall give it my all!
• Dedue: No matter the battle, I will never falter.
• Dimitri: We're counting on your guidance, Professor. Let's show the world what the Blue Lions are made of!

Golden Deer route

Gronder Field (Empire Territory) | Daytime

• Claude: So this is Gronder Field... Hey, Teach. Not a bad place to wage war, is it?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: How so?
  • Choice 2: Absolutely. (Relationship with Claude up)
    • Claude: I knew you'd understand.
• Claude: Plenty of places to hide, and our pick of paths to advance through. It's the perfect battlefield for our tactics. I have my eye on that low hill over there. See it? It's the ideal spot to lure our enemies to, and then surround them with fire.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: It's risky.
  • Choice 2: Fire is unacceptable.
• Claude: Gotcha, Teach! I know, I know. We want all students to make it back to the monastery. With you in command, we can't lose. The Imperial princess and the crown prince don't stand a chance.

(The rest of the Golden Deer join them)

• Hilda: Professor! Claude! What are you two talking about?
• Lorenz: What do you expect? It's Claude. I expect he was foisting more of his ill-advised schemes on our poor professor.
• Claude: Oh, you have me all figured out, Lorenz. You know me better than I know myself.
• Ignatz: Win or lose, it's an honor just to participate in the legendary Battle of the Eagle and Lion!
• Leonie: We've got to win so we can show Captain Jeralt what we're made of!
• Raphael: Yes! I'm ready! Let's go!
• Flayn: Haha, I shall give it my all!
• Marianne: I'll just...stay quiet and follow along so I don't get in anyone's way.
• Lysithea: That will not be acceptable, Marianne. The whole point of this exercise is for each house to act as one.
• Hilda: Do your best! I can't wait to see how well everyone does.
• Claude: All right, sounds like Hilda will be taking control of a central hill and watching the battle from there.

(Hilda horrified)

• Claude: It's almost time. Come on, Teach! The battle starts now!

Event: Commendable Effort

Blue Lions route

• Claude: Well done, Your Princeliness. I'm certainly not in any hurry to get on your bad side.
• Edelgard: I assumed you would attack us head-on. I clearly need to rethink my opinion of you. Well done, Dimitri.
• Dimitri: You both deserve equal praise for a battle well fought. All three houses did extremely well. Don't you agree, Professor?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: The Black Eagle House was very strong. (Relationship with Edelgard up)
    • Edelgard: Not strong enough, clearly. If there's ever a next time, know that I plan to wipe that smile from your face.
  • Choice 2: The Golden Deer House was very strong. (Relationship with Claude up)
    • Claude: It's an honor to hear that from a fighter such as yourself! But there's no getting around it. The Blue Lions were better prepared.
  • Choice 3: They were nothing. (Relationship with Dimitri up)
    • Dimitri: It only seemed that way because of the caliber of your command. Even now, we must not allow ourselves to become complacent.
• Claude: In any case, I hope the day never comes when we have to put this experience to use.
• Edelgard: I wouldn't mind. I'll accept a challenge from either of you at any time. Heh, I'm kidding, of course!
• Dimitri: That is nothing to joke about. The true Battle of the Eagle and Lion is best left in the past. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually change the name of this mock battle.
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: I hope so.
  • Choice 2: Let's do our best to get along.
• Claude: How admirable, Teach! On that note, I have a proposition. When we get back to Garreg Mach, let's have a grand feast to bring down the walls between our respective houses. And by a "grand" feast, I mean a fairly regular feast in the dining hall.
• Edelgard: You really value that kind of thing, don't you? Well, I suppose no harm can come from it. Count me in.
• Dimitri: I have no objections either. And you, Professor?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: I'm looking forward to it.
  • Choice 2: We'll celebrate our victory.
    • Dimitri: Oh! Well, I'm not sure that's the point... Uh, Professor? Was that...a joke?
• Dimitri: You look so...happy. I love seeing you like this. I suppose that look on your face is just another boon from this glorious day. Perhaps the best one of all.

Golden Deer route

• Edelgard: Well done, Claude. I see your schemes are not to be underestimated.
• Dimitri: Yes, I must wholeheartedly agree. As ever, I have proven to be no match for you.
• Claude: It is the utmost honor to receive praise from your royal– (laughs) I'm kidding, of course. Really, though, I was lucky to have Teach on my side. In all honesty, you two made me work for it. If I had to face you again, there's no telling which way it would go. What do you think, Teach? How did the other houses fare?
• Byleth:
  • Choice 1: The Blue Lion House was very strong. (Relationship with Dimitri up)
    • Dimitri: I appreciate that. Still, it is clear that I must continue to be rigorous in my training.
  • Choice 2: The Black Eagle House was very strong. (Relationship with Edelgard up)
    • Edelgard: Not strong enough, clearly. If there's ever a next time, know that I plan to wipe that smile from your face.
  • Choice 3: They were nothing. (Relationship with Claude up)
    • Claude: Too true, Teach! That just about sums it up. Oh, I'm sorry. That's probably too hard for the losers to hear, isn't it?
• Claude: In any case, I hope the day never comes when we have to put this experience to use.
• Dimitri: Agreed. I would hate to know a future in which I'm forced to cross swords with you.
• Edelgard: I wouldn't mind. I'll accept a challenge from either of you at any time. Heh, I'm kidding, of course!
• Claude: Well, now that the three-way battle has ended in an Alliance victory, I daresay it's time for some post-battle reconciliation. The victor has but one request. Hear me out... When we get back to Garreg Mach, let's have a grand feast to bring down the walls between our respective houses. And by a "grand" feast, I mean a fairly regular feast in the dining hall.
• Dimitri: Hmph. I accept your proposition. Please notify me once your preparations are complete.
• Edelgard: It seems I have no choice but to drown my sorrow at losing in overindulgence. I'll help you with the preparations.
• Claude: It's not a feast if you don't eat too much! Leave it to the Imperial princess to say such wonderful things.
• Edelgard: That's not exactly what I said, but... Ugh, forget it. Laugh all you want.
• Claude: Oh, if you insist! Hahahaha! Hey, Teach. Looks like you're having a good time too. Seeing you smile like that means we've got no choice but to have a great time tonight. Let's get going!
