Emile, wait! Don't go!
Mercedes

Take your helmet off. Please. Let me see your face.
Mercedes
volume_up

It really is you under there, isn't it? I've been searching for so long...

Caspar
volume_up

I finally caught up with you, Mercedes. You're faster than you look...
Caspar
volume_up

But I'm here now, so you can give up, Death Knight!

Imperial Soldier
volume_up

You worry us, Death Knight! Gallivanting around like that...
Imperial Soldier
volume_up

Is it possible that...you're in contact with someone in the church?
Imperial Soldier
volume_up

I don't know whether your silence is confirmation or denial... If it pleases you, I will take it as denial.
Imperial Soldier
volume_up

In that case, let's wipe out every last one of those Garreg Mach rats!
Death Knight
volume_up

I have no interest... You do it.
Imperial Soldier
volume_up

What?! I...I will report this to Her Majesty! All right, everyone! Kill them all!

Caspar
volume_up

Come at me! I'll take you all on!
Mercedes
volume_up

Caspar, wait! Are you going to kill the Death Knight too?
Caspar
volume_up

That was the plan, but you're acting like you don't want me to. Do you know him or something?
Mercedes
volume_up

I do...but he also doesn't look like he wants to fight us.
Mercedes
volume_up

Let's join up with everyone else. I think he might retreat if we defeat the other Imperial soldiers!
Caspar
volume_up

I'm not gonna let him escape! I might fight him even if he does try to get away...
It seems the Death Knight has no intention of joining the battle.
However, Caspar is intent on crossing blades with the Death Knight. When that happens, make sure he doesn't lose.

Death Knight
volume_up

Flee, and I will not chase you... Challenge me, and I will have no choice but to fight...

Death Knight
volume_up

Simple...but effective...
Caspar
volume_up

You're not getting away that easy!

Death Knight
volume_up

I must go...

Mercedes
volume_up

Enemy reinforcements are approaching! What should we do?
Caspar
volume_up

Let's take 'em out! Reinforcements just means we get to fight even more!
link
Caspar
volume_up

Phew...we did it. Are you all right, Mercedes?
Mercedes
volume_up

I am, thanks to you. But still...
Caspar
volume_up

There's something you wanted to ask him, right? Come on, he ran off into the forest.
Mercedes
volume_up

Thank you, Caspar.
You successfully completed the Paralogue and earned a battalion!
