Before Battle

Old Hubba
Oh huzzah! You're back! You're back to save this Outrealm once and for all! So I've got good news, and I've got GREAT news! What'll it be?

Chrom
Well that's a switch... What's the good news?

Old Hubba
I managed to gather all the Einherjar you defeated back in those ruins. Beat them one last time, and I can finally seal them back in their calling cards!

Chrom
Excellent. And the great news?

Old Hubba
There's no army relying on you this time! No allies to get in your way or die on you! It's just you and your party against allllll those legendary soldiers! Isn't that great?!

Chrom
...Fantastic


Battle Start

Soren
All of our soldiers are in position.

Ike
Then let's commence the attack. Give Micaiah the signal. Tell our other units to wait until their doors open.

Soren
Consider it done.

Mia
It's not like you to be so cautious, General. Wouldn't it be more satisfying to just storm at them the way we usually do?

Soren
Not if we want to assure victory. It's said there's an expert tactician among the enemy ranks. This way we can keep our movements secret until it's too late for them. They won't know which doors will open or where to expect an attack from. First we sow fear and confusion—then we move in for the killing blow.

Ike
Right. We may outnumber them, but we still have to be smart about this. Soren's strategy will work. Understand, Mia?

Mia
Yes, sir.

Sothe
Micaiah, Ike's given us the signal.

Micaiah
Then let's move on to the attack. Ready, Empress Sanaki?

Sanaki
Of course. Come, everyone! The final battle is upon us!

Chrom
I sense trouble behind those doors...

Robin
Chrom! Enemies to the south! They're heading this way!

Chrom
What? Then if there ARE enemies behind the doors here...

Robin
We'll be trapped between a rock and a hard place.

Chrom
Damn... We're surrounded? Why wouldn't they attack us en masse?

Robin
They're probably waiting for the right opportunity. Perhaps they plan to send wave after wave to whittle away our morale...

Chrom
And our strength in the process. This will be a tough fight.

Robin
True. But look at it another way... They're committing a major tactical error by funneling their forces. As long as we stay calm and focused, we can pick them off one unit at a time.

Chrom
Good point. And we might be able to get the drop on them by opening the doors first.

Robin
Now you're thinking.


Battle Conversations

Roy

>Battle
Roy
Where did you COME from?


>Battle w/ Avatar (M/F)
Roy
Why do you trouble this land? You have your own realm!

Robin
Actually, I'm fairly certain it's you who— Ugh, what's the point. Only force will sort this mess out!


>Deathquote
Roy
I underestimated your valor, outsiders...


Lilina

>Battle
Lilina
You had your chance. Now I'm hitting you with all I've got!


>Battle w/ Avatar (F)
Lilina
What do you hope to achieve here? Just let us go about our lives!

Robin
All I hope is to put this realm back to— Ugh, why bother? She won't listen. ...My purpose here is to defeat you. That's all you need to know!


>Deathquote
Lilina
How can such small numbers do so much damage to our alliance...


Ike

>Battle
Ike
You can't beat me—so why not just go back to your own world?


>Battle w/ Chrom
Chrom
We will defeat you and restore peace to this world!

Ike
I believe that's my line. Come on!


>Deathquote
Ike
Was that...the best I can do?


Mist

>Battle
Mist
Can we please stop this? Just go back to wherever it is you came from.


>Battle w/ Lissa
Lissa
Would you stop running amok?! We can't go home until you stop fighting.

Mist
That's your problem! This battle would be over if you hadn't come here!


>Deathquote
Mist
Nngh... How could this happen...


Titania

>Battle
Titania
You want to face me? I hope you know what you've gotten yourself into.


>Battle w/ Frederick
Frederick
As lieutenant of the Shepherds, I cannot allow you to stand in Chrom's path!

Titania
Second in command, are we? Let's see if you're worthy of your title!


>Deathquote
Titania
Ahh... Must it end here, with my fight unfinished?


Lucia

>Battle
Lucia
I won't let you ravage this land as you please!


>Battle w/ Sully
Sully
Why the hell are you resisting? You know we're going to walk all over you.

Lucia
I would never betray my mistress—nor will I lose to the likes of you!


>Deathquote
Lucia
I thought I had you... But I was...wrong...


Wolt

>Battle
Wolt
This boy serves Lord Roy!


>Battle w/ Virion
Wolt
This land belongs to us. Go back to your own world!

Virion
I am afraid I cannot do that. This land must be freed. And I, the noblest of emancipators, shall see it done!


>Deathquote
Wolt
My strength...wasn't enough...


Seth

>Battle
Seth
If you defy us, we must strike you down. It's nothing personal.


>Battle w/ Stahl
Stahl
Look, I just want you to know that we're not here to conquer you.

Seth
Why else would you come armed to the teeth? Spare me your lies.

Stahl
...Well, it was worth a shot.


>Deathquote
Seth
Forgive me, my comrades... I've failed in my duties...


Matthew

>Battle
Matthew
No hard feelings... Fighting is just what I do.


>Battle w/ Vaike
Vaike
Hey now, who's this tough guy? You want to go a few rounds with Teach?

Matthew
Not really. Leila wouldn't approve of me toying with you while I'm on the job.


>Deathquote
Matthew
I couldn't get the job done... I'm sorry, young master...


Lute

>Battle
Lute
You don't stand a chance against me. I'm simply cut from better cloth.


>Battle w/ Miriel
Miriel
Would you like to fight?

Lute
I don't mind, but why ask first? You might have fared better with a sudden, unexpected strike.

Miriel
Ah. Indeed, swift victory could be mine, were that my primary objective. However, what I really seek is feedback. I can't evaluate my fighting if I level you at a stroke!


>Deathquote
Lute
I guess...your talents exceed even mine...


Elincia

>Battle
Elincia
Leave this place, trespassers—for all our sakes!


>Battle w/ Sumia
Elincia
Stranger from afar, I demand that you leave this place! Answer now, or we will settle this with steel!

Sumia
As you c-command, milady! ...I-I mean, no! We can't!

Elincia
Very well. Steel it is, then!


>Deathquote
Elincia
So this is the end... Such strength...


Sophia

>Battle
Sophia
You may be strong...but I cannot stand idly by...


>Battle w/ Kellam
Kellam
Sorry to have to do this, but you're all that stands between me and home.

Sophia
That explains why you're fighting...but why are you picking on me?

Kellam
Oh! I, er, guess because you're the only one who actually noticed me? Sorry...


>Deathquote
Sophia
Better to fight and lose...than to make no difference at all...


Nephenee

>Battle
Nephenee
No words. Let's just fight.


>Battle w/ Donnel
Donnel
Gosh, you're purdy. How come you're out here fightin'? ...Why so silent? Not big on chattin' with your foes?

Nephenee
I don't want people to hear my country accent.

Donnel
Huh? ...What was that there? I couldn't quite make it out. ...Ack, what? Why are ya glarin' at me like that?!


>Deathquote
Nephenee
Nngh, no... Why?


Amelia

>Battle
Amelia
You'll never defeat us. Never!


>Battle w/ Lon'qu
Lon'qu
Away, woman! Come no closer!

Amelia
You have a problem with women? It's about to get far worse!


>Deathquote
Amelia
No! I haven't lost... I can't...lose...


Innes

>Battle
Innes
We had an overwhelming advantage in numbers... So what are these doubts?


>Battle w/ Ricken
Ricken
Be warned! I hit as hard as any man twice my age!

Innes
Really? Then I'll have to hit back even harder.


>Deathquote
Innes
I wish...I could have understood...why you are doing this...


Zihark

>Battle
Zihark
I know a threat when I see it. Still, I cannot allow you to pass!


>Battle w/ Panne
Panne
Prepare to feel the wrath of a taguel, man-spawn!

Zihark
I'd never wish to fight your kind, but if you attack me, I have no choice...


>Deathquote
Zihark
You're...more powerful than I imagined... If we were allies...


Eirika

>Battle
Eirika
I ask you now: leave. I would do anything for this fighting to stop.


>Battle w/ Gaius
Eirika
I ask you now: leave. I would do anything for this fighting to stop.

Gaius
"Anything," huh?

Eirika
Yes! Just name it.

Gaius
...Nah. I can't take advantage of such an easy mark. Look, the truth is, we have to defeat you. End of story. Sorry.


>Deathquote
Eirika
Brother...I fear I need more lessons in the sword...


Nino

>Battle
Nino
You're mistaken if you think a Black Fang like me will die today!


>Battle w/ Cordelia
Cordelia
I won't die here! My fallen sisters haven't called me to their side yet!

Nino
Well, you're mistaken if you think a Black Fang like me will die instead!


>Deathquote
Nino
Did I...make a difference?


Brom

>Battle
Brom
You wanna fight me? Now that's just plumb crazy. What do ya hope to gain from takin' ME down?


>Battle w/ Gregor
Gregor
Why not put weapon away and go home? You...not seem very much like warring type, yes?

Brom
But I gotta fight! ...Unless you're gonna pack up and go home first?

Gregor
Sorry, this Gregor cannot do. Well...nice to be knowing you!


>Deathquote
Brom
All right... You win...


Leonardo

>Battle
Leonardo
I may not be the man to do it, but you must be dealt with!


>Battle w/ Nowi
Leonardo
Are you sure we can't work this out in a nonviolent way, lass?

Nowi
We could be playmates.

Leonardo
Uh...that might be going a little too far.

Nowi
Fine. Violence it is!


>Deathquote
Leonardo
That was...disappointing... Maybe I was...the wrong man...


Lyon

>Battle
Lyon
I didn't obtain this power for nothing. Get in my way, and your life is forfeit.


>Battle w/ Libra
Lyon
We were meant to rule this land. Do not interfere!

Libra
I beg to differ. The cards have something else in store for you


>Deathquote
Lyon
No... How can my power not be enough?


Micaiah

>Battle
Micaiah
Begone from this realm, outsider! You have no future here!


>Battle w/ Tharja
Micaiah
Begone from this realm, outsider!

Tharja
Ha! Not a chance. Why would I leave when there are tough little birds like you to torment?


>Deathquote
Micaiah
I gave it all I had... I just hope that...it was enough...


Serra

>Battle
Serra
Doesn't anyone want to protect me? I'm a sweet, helpless cleric!


>Battle w/ Anna
Anna
So, I've got this sweet arrangement with a dashing noble... Why don't we stop fighting and go rub noses with the rich and handsome?

Serra
R-really? How handsome? ...Wait. How dare you play with my emotions like that!


>Deathquote
Serra
Just hold on! You're not...supposed to be this strong...


Florina

>Battle
Florina
See now the strength of our hearts!


>Battle w/ Olivia
Florina
Listen, if you'd rather fight someone more capable, I understand.

Olivia
Oh, not at all. You'll do just fine. Are you ready?

Florina
Yes, thank you.

Olivia
You're quite welcome!


>Deathquote
Florina
You can break us in battle...but not in spirit...


Sigrun

>Battle
Sigrun
So it's come to this? Very well. You'll get your fight.


>Battle w/ Cherche
Cherche
Why do you fight? Is there no way for us to settle things amicably?

Sigrun
I fight to defend what is dear to me. So as long as you threaten it, this fight is inevitable.


>Deathquote
Sigrun
Rrgh, I'm finished... The rest is up...to the others...


Soren

>Battle
Soren
Are you supposed to be a challenge?


>Battle w/ Henry
Henry
Ooh! You look dangerous. But you should probably clear out of here before I mangle you and stuff.

Soren
Your threats are only words. If you're an enemy of Ike's, you're my enemy, too.


>Deathquote
Soren
All this time...have I been playing into their strategy?


Lyn

>Battle
Lyn
What are we really fighting for? Are we truly defending our realm here? ...Should we be defending it?


>Battle w/ Lucina
Lyn
Will nothing convince you to leave? I don't want to fight you. Not while I still have doubts...

Lucina
I respect your feelings, milady... But we cannot leave our business here unfinished. You have honor and character... I shall make this quick!


>Deathquote
Lyn
My doubts have been my undoing...


Mia

>Battle
Mia
Mm, I can tell already this will be a memorable fight. Let's get right to it!


>Battle w/ Say'ri
Say'ri
Warrior! I challenge you to a test of blades. Do you accept?

Mia
Now that's how you start a fight! I accept!


>Deathquote
Mia
Well...I guess this was meant to be...


Eliwood

>Battle
Eliwood
You outsiders may be strong, but you'll never break us!


>Battle w/ Tiki
Tiki
Please, stop this madness. You have no hope of winning.

Eliwood
I'll stop only once we have driven you from our realm!


>Deathquote
Eliwood
I know my comrades will...carry on in my stead...


Karel

>Battle
Karel
I temper my blade by taking down strong warriors like you.


>Battle w/ Basilio
Basilio
Ho! This guy looks bloodthirsty. Maybe I'll just slink out of sight...

Karel
Not so fast. Once you stand in my path, you don't get to run away. Not when the feast is just about to begin...

Basilio
"Feast," huh? Scary. All right. But don't cry to me later. I tried to spare you!


>Deathquote
Karel
Defeat...is just another path to greatness...


Cecilia

>Battle
Cecilia
This is our land, our kingdom! You can return to your own.


>Battle w/ Flavia
Cecilia
This is our land, our kingdom! Return to your own.

Flavia
Sorry, love, but this isn't musical chairs. We have a duty to fulfill, and part of that is defeating you.


>Deathquote
Cecilia
It's not fair... This is our land... Why can we not defend it?


Lugh

>Battle
Lugh
We'll never give up. You can never break our spirit!


>Battle w/ Gangrel
Gangrel
Run home to your mommy, boy, before you slip on your own piddle.

Lugh
I don't have a home or a mother... Not that I plan to run away!


>Deathquote
Lugh
I lost this fight...but you haven't beaten me...


Ashnard

>Battle
Ashnard
Heh, I think you need a lesson in how powerless you really are.


>Battle w/ Walhart
Walhart
A man as lost as you will never turn me from my path.

Ashnard
Really? Nonsense like that requires more persuasive evidence!


>Deathquote
Ashnard
Heh heh... Yes! Finally a battle...worth fighting...


Sanaki

>Battle
Sanaki
Bow before our superior might!


>Battle w/ Emmeryn
Emmeryn
Nn...ahh...

Sanaki
I pity you for all the hardships you have clearly endured. But you must understand I cannot stand down from this battle.

Emmeryn
I...am not afraid...


>Deathquote
Sanaki
What? This is...impossible...


Zephiel

>Battle
Zephiel
You are greater fools than most men if you seek this misery in other worlds!


>Battle w/ Yen'fay
Yen'fay
I was a ghost of a man when my comrades found me... But by striking down their foes, I can atone for my errors!

Zephiel
Atone? Aren't you a sad sight. A strong man does not lament the past. He makes the future!


>Deathquote
Zephiel
One fool...defeated by another...


Sephiran

>Battle
Sephiran
Let's see what you're capable of.


>Battle w/ Aversa
Aversa
Ooh! What a man. I'll bet you're a screamer. Shall we find out?

Sephiran
Try me. You'll be surprised all right.

Aversa
Oh! And so confident, too. I'm going to enjoy this...


>Deathquote
Sephiran
I see now why you fight... If I were that strong...I would seek battle, too...


Marisa

>Battle
Marisa
Leave, or I will drop you where you stand.


>Battle w/ Priam
Marisa
Leave, or I will drop you where you stand.

Priam
Are you sure? I think I still have some friends of yours stuck to my boot.


>Deathquote
Marisa
Nngh... You win... What else can I say?


Sothe

>Battle
Sothe
You sealed your fate the second you decided to challenge us.


>Battle w/ Owain
Owain
You must have great skill if you targeted me, fiend. But be warned! My power emanates from a wellspring deeper than time!

Sothe
...Did you want to fight or not? I don't have time for games.

Owain
All right, all right. Don't go!


>Deathquote
Sothe
Is this...where my struggle ends?


L'Arachel

>Battle
L'Arachel
Why are you even trying? You're just another feather waiting to be placed in my cap.


>Battle w/ Inigo
Inigo
How I wish to get to know you, milady! Are we doomed to meet only in battle?

L'Arachel
Yes. That's the idea.

Inigo
*Sigh* The truth stings all the more from the lips of one so lovely.


>Deathquote
L'Arachel
My illustrious career...ruined...


Moulder

>Battle
Moulder
Perhaps this endless fighting is what the gods have ordained for us...


>Battle w/ Brady
Moulder
So long as the gods grant me breath, I will not tolerate your foul language!

Brady
Oh yeah? Well, go kiss a wyvern talon, you long-winded bag of prayers!


>Deathquote
Moulder
It seems I've...finally taken on a fight...I can't finish...


Hector

>Battle
Hector
I hope you know how to hit harder than I do!


>Battle w/ Kjelle
Kjelle
Sir, might we put this battle aside for a moment and speak of armor? I never dreamt that chain mail and plate could go so well together.

Hector
Are you mad? If you won't leave this land, then you will fight me now!

Kjelle
...Very well. But try not to squirm! I don't want to put any unnecessary dents in that lovely armor of yours!


>Deathquote
Hector
Damn...I thought I had more fight in me...than that...


Perceval

>Battle
Perceval
Withdraw your forces, or face the might of our army.


>Battle w/ Cynthia
Perceval
Withdraw your forces, or face the might of our army.

Cynthia
Oh yeah? Well I'll... I'll... Rats. I used up all my witty retorts in the last fight.

Perceval
...Your what?


>Deathquote
Perceval
I see now there are powers out there...beyond what a man like me can know...


Edward

>Battle
Edward
Hey! Try me on for size!


>Battle w/ Severa
Edward
You there! This is your last chance to leave in peace!

Severa
What is that, a threat? You can't threaten me! I'm—

Edward
Charge!

Severa
Aah! You could at least let me finish my sentence!


>Deathquote
Edward
I couldn't do it... If I was just a little bit stronger...


Geoffrey

>Battle
Geoffrey
The luck of the day decides who prevails. May the best warrior win!


>Battle w/ Gerome
Geoffrey
Masked warrior, return to the world you came from. Free yourself from a life of shame—a life of hiding who you are!

Gerome
You've got it all wrong. I chose this life!


>Deathquote
Geoffrey
No... I have failed the queen...


Ephraim

Ephraim
You look strong—so I hope you won't mind me giving you special treatment!


>Battle w/ Morgan (M)
Ephraim
Surrender now, and I promise you no more blood will be spilt.

Morgan
Well, I'm all for no bloodshed, but the fact is—you need to go. I don't suppose it's as simple as just asking, though.

Ephraim
Obviously not.

Morgan
Then fighting it is. Let's settle this quickly.


>Deathquote
Ephraim
So this is defeat? It...stings...


Jaffar

>Battle
Jaffar
...Farewell!


>Battle w/ Morgan (F)
Jaffar
......

Morgan
Um...doesn't your face cramp up from glaring at people like that? Look, you want to really scare me? Smile. I'd die from the shock. ...Or at least say something before we fight. It's tradition!

Jaffar
...Silence.

Morgan
Hey! You did it! NOW this fight is official. I was starting to worry...

Jaffar
Nngh...how...

Hah. I can already tell you're not half as strong as you look.

Can you now? Usually I lay someone flat BEFORE I decide how strong they aren't.

Bold words. You had better hope that's not empty courage.

King Zephiel, the doors! That's our signal.

Right. Commence the attack!

Florina
Um, the doors opened... I think it's time.

Nino
Okay, everyone, follow me!

Battle End

Robin
Finally... That's the last of them.

Chrom
Gods, I thought it would never end. I was almost ready to give up...

Robin
Me too. It was a pitched battle... We're lucky to have even survived.

Chrom
Perhaps now this realm can finally enjoy a little peace and quiet... Let's go home, Robin.

Robin
Wait, Chrom. I found this where their main force had assembled.

Chrom
An Einherjar card? "Lyn, Noblewoman of Sacae"... This must be Lyndis from the Elibean legends. We could use someone like her on our side!


Lyn Recruitment Conversation

Lyn
So that's it. I lost. It feels so unfair... Are you the enemy's tactician? ...Wait, what?! It can't be... Are you... No, that's impossible... I'm sorry. It's just...you remind me of someone very dear to me. A tactician, like you, who came to my aid time and again. This might seem like a silly question, but... Have you ever awoken in a strange place, uncertain of how you got there?


>Question: Have you ever awoken in a strange place?

>Yes
Lyn
I knew it! It happened three times to the man/woman I knew. This can't be pure coincidence. ...Unless, of course, all tacticians are known to collapse by the wayside.


>No
Lyn
Really? That surprises me. I thought I was on to something... The tactician I knew often tended to pass out and wake up elsewhere. That's how he/she and I met. It was strange, to say the least...


>After Answer
Lyn
I am Lyn, of the Lorca tribe. Would you tell me more about yourself? Where were you born? Have you been to my world? ...What? You can't remember? Now I'm even more certain that you're the man/woman I know. Look at me carefully, and really try to think back. We met on the Sacae plains. We fought with Eliwood and the others... Does none of this sound familiar?


>Quesiton: Does Lyn's story sound familiar?

>Yes
Lyn
Really? Then you remember! It's really you! Oh...I'm so happy! I thought... I thought we'd never met again. ...I'm sorry. I don't mean to cry. I'm just...overwhelmed. Give me a moment... ...Thank you. I feel better. Listen. Come back to Sacae with me! Can you just picture the others' face's? ...What? Unfinished business? All right. Then please, let me join my strength to yours. I'll cut down any foe who dares stand in your path!


>No
Lyn
That's...too bad. Maybe you're not the person I thought. But still...you know what? I want to help. Take me with you. Even if you claim you aren't the man/woman I knew, I want to judge for myself. I'm good with a blade. Keep me by your side, and none shall harm you.


Recruit Lyn > Yes
Lyn
You'd let me travel with you?
