The Nachzehrer King... The terrible corpse eater.

Amiya told me about his powers. He 'eats' war... turning the battlefield into part of himself simply by standing on it.

How do we defeat the battlefield itself?

The dukes' fleets must be united to win.

Our soldiers have to avoid him. That's why we need to move before he returns.

They're living legends.

The Sarkaz Royal Court... if they truly plan to suppress the entire city, over the heads of Lt. Colonel Lettou and the Defense Forces...

You're good at math, Clovisia. What are the chances we triumph over these terrible legends?

Very good then. The Self-Salvation Corps didn't come this far by crunching numbers.

The fighters are doing their best.

Whatever may come, at least our hearts are one, aren't they, Allerdale?

...Huh? Oh, yes, of course.

What are you thinking about?

I'm thinking... I hope tomorrow goes as well as these past few days have.

Don't you think they've been going a little too smoothly lately?

That's a good thing, innit?

Good things don't happen on their own.

I agree with Vina. You get lucky once, sure, but not every time.

Hey, those men have been loitering for a while...

The man on the corner glances at them briefly.

He should not have been able to see so deep into the alley. But he suddenly pulls back his gaze, and briskly walks away with his head lowered.

Dagda!

Yes?

Tell Allerdale... tell the Corps to evacuate the warehouse district immediately!

Yes, Siege.

They want to know why.

We are being watched... no time to explain.

Dagda, Indra, Morgan. Proceed with the plan.

Oh...

Is everyone out?

I... I don't know...

Run now. Talk later.
