"Hey Chrom, did you noticed how they talked? They were from Plegia!" Lissa said. I slightly tilted my head, "Plegia...?" I asked. "A neighboring country to the west that constant wishes to start up a war. They send small groups into Ylissean territory in order to accomplish this." Frederick stepped in to answer my question. 'Now it all make sense...' I thought to myself. "These people didn't have to suffer...it's all thanks to the Mad King." Chrom muttered something to himself. "This is why the Shepherds were created milord, to protect those who suffer." Frederick stepped in to cheer Chrom up. "Yea, that's right." He said. A random villager came out of nowhere, "Oh thank the gods, you're our saviors! You must stay the night!" he said. "Thank you very much sir, but I am afraid we cannot. We must make our way back to Ylisstol." Frederick ended his decline with a smile. "Oh I'd LOOOVE to! I would like a roast beef, dark meat only, yes? Wait...we're not staying?! But it's almost dark!" Lissa seemed to have delayed hearing or something. I mean..Frederick said out loud we're not staying. "Heh heh, so camping it is!" Chrom said. "Oh no no no! There's bugs and all sorts of animals out there!" Lissa was quick to voice her negative opinion. "It's best we hurry and make a campsite. Just like Lissa said, it's almost dark." I said. The group nodded and we set off toward the forest.

"UGH! I hate this! The bugs are out, it stinks and- AUWGH! Won ish en mah mowph!" Lissa coughed and wheezed, I decided to help her out and whack her on the back a bit. "Whew..thanks Robin." she said. I nodded my head. "It's best that we start to set up camp. Robin, Lissa, you gather firewood. Frederick and I will focus on food. Everyone understand?" Chrom laid out the blueprints. Everyone nodded in understanding. "Ah! Wait!" I stuck a bolt of lightning in the ground, "A marker so we don't get lost when our jobs are complete." Lissa's eyes widened, "Smart thinking Robin!" her expression of surprise turned into sheer giddy joy. "Thank you." I smiled and said.

As I cut down trees, Lissa organized the wood that needed to be cut. "So Robin, did you remember anything yet?" There was a slight concern in her voice. I closed my eyes and poked around my brain until I found...something?


"No! You won't take him from me...he doesn't deserve to die this young!!" It was bright...but I saw a woman speaking to a very dark figure. I tried to make out their faces but no matter how hard I tried, it just made my head throb and ache. "Do you really think you can keep him away from our almighty god?!" I heard another voice...but this one sounded familiar. It was the voice of a man.

"Robin! Hellooo~ Earth to Robin!!" Lissa called out to me. I turned around slowly, "Oh, uh, sorry. I kinda zoned out on you. What were you saying?" I said. Her eyes slowly widened, "Robin....you're crying!" I chuckled a bit and it soon turned into laughter. "Me? Crying? Nah, that wouldn't happen...unless I lost somebo-" Lissa put her finger underneath my eye. It kinda felt warm, then she removed it. I saw water droplets on her finger, "See?" She said. I swallowed hard and quickly wiped my face. "Robin...are you sure you didn't remember anything?" Lissa asked. I thought about it for a bit, "I'll telll you...at a later time, okay? It's a bit hearthrobing to think about it right now." I responded, "C'mon, lets hurry and get this done." She nodded with a smile.
