You and Eliwood now seek out Helman, the marquess of Santaruz. Now with Hector, Oswin, and the returning Matthew and Serra by your side, it seems that good luck is on your side!
You see the castle up ahead.
(Y/N): That must be it.
Eliwood: We must speak with Lord Helman!
(Y/N): Agreed.
???: I don't think so laddie!
(Y/N): Whoa! Who are you?
Boies: I'm Boies of the Black Fang! You'll be worm meat soon!
(Y/N): You don't scare me buster!
Boies: Is that so? Well, my men and I will make short work of your party!
You kindly responded by cutting his beard up.
Boies: Oh, you've gone and done it now.
Several assassins appear, including-
Matthew: Wait! Is that- (Y/N), hang on.
The thief goes to check out the man.
Matthew: Guy?
Guy: M-Matthew?
Matthew: It is you! How's your sword work?
Guy: You are aware this isn't the best place to be catching up, aren't you? You and I...We're on opposite sides here.
Matthew: Heh, is this the thanks you give to the man who saved you from starvation?
Guy: I only said that 'cause you said you'd feed me if I did! I hadn't eaten in ten days, and you were cooking meat! You... This... This isn't fair!
Matthew: Heh, sorry, but the man I work for told me to never turn down a promise.
Guy: (sigh) Fine. You win.
He begins taking down other Black Fang members!
Black Fang Assassin: Guy, what are you-
Guy: Sorry, but I need to repay my debt to this man.
Back with you...
(Y/N): Okay, Eliwood, Hector, you keep attacking! Oswin, go with Lowell, and Marcus. Rebecca, provide backup to anyone who needs it!
Serra: And me, (Y/N)?
(Y/N): Make sure Bartre doesn't get himself killed.
Bartre: HAHAHAHAHAHA!
(Y/N): What is he, Drax?
Dorcas: Well, you heard (Y/N).
Serra: (sigh) We reunite, and this happens? Great.
Soon...
As you chase after Boies, you bump into-
???: No! No! This is not good! I have to get out before- AAGH!
(Y/N): Pardon me Sir. I-
Peddler: Good heavens man! Watch where you're going!
(Y/N): You are?
Merlinus: Merlinus is my name, and peddling is my game. So, what would you like to buy? I have so many objects to sell, and such little time. For my life is on the line.
(Y/N): Right. Well ... can you cook?
Merlinus: Well ... yes.
(Y/N): Can you sell and make some cash?
Merlinus: I am a skilled peddler.
(Y/N): Very well. Tell you what. Stick with me and my party, and I promise you, you'll be making gold til the day you die!
Merlinus: You swear?
(Y/N): Yep!
Merlinus: Thank you, very much!
He shakes your hand, and hurries off to run for cover.
(Y/N): He's a coward, but he might have his uses.
And then...
You find Boies, who tries to surprise attack you, but you stab him in the chest!
(Y/N): Got you!
Boies: Hahahaha! You got me, but you're too late. He's long dead.
(Y/N): What?
Soon...
A hurt man crawls on the floor.
Eliwood: Lord Helman?
Helman: Is that you...Eliwood?
Eliwood: What happened?
Helman: If I hadn't told Elbert...about...Darin's plans...This would...never...have- HACK!
He coughs up blood.
Eliwood: No! Please don't speak anymore!
Helman: Go to Laus...Darin...the marquess of Laus...knows all. Beware of ... the Black Fang.
He then dies.
(Y/N): Shit! We're too late!
The party then regroups...
(Y/N): I'm sorry Eli.
Eliwood: We can only seek answers. We must go to Laus.
(Y/N): Very well then. Luckily, with Matthew's friend, and our new Peddler, we have some more supplies for us.
Merlinus: I must thank you for your kindness. I may not know how to fight, but I can do other things!
(Y/N): Just don't slow us down, and you'll be good.
Guy: This is the group, I'm stuck with? Damn. I don't even get paid for this.
Matthew: But we're doing the right thing.
Guy: Ugh. But I'm not going to like it.
