You and the party have followed the Black Fang due south. Although the trail vanishes, Lyn uses her tracking skills, and the pursuit continues. The path leads up into Bern's impassable mountains. The peaks know no seasons, and the snow covers all in a bright blanket. In this land of blinding reflections, an ancient castle appears.
With Sonia...
Sonia: So, in the end, you failed to defeat them, didn't you?
Vaida: I- The one (Y/N) (L/N), he is much stronger than the rest combined. I swear I'll eliminate them next ti-
But then Sonia slapped her.
Sonia: There won't be a next time.
Vaida: Without Lord Nergal's good word, I'll never fly again! Not as a royal wyvern knight, at least! Please! Another chance!!
Sonia: You've fallen from grace. Luckily you are on outsider, so I will not harm you. Now, go before I change my mind.
Vaida sneered at her and spat on Sonia's face.
Just outside...
Eliwood: That wyvern rider... That was the same woman we fought earlier. That proves that they took this mountain path.
Hector: Now... What have we here... What a complicated place.
(Y/N): I can definitely hear voices. Hey Marcus, keep watch on everyone, especially Nils and Ninian!
Marcus: Understood.
Inside...
Nino is talking with Sonia and Brendan.
Nino: Really? You're giving me a mission? Really and truly!? Mother!
Sonia: I am. And it's a very big job at that. ...It's for the king of Bern.
Nino: The King?! WOW!!
Brendan: Sonia! She's just a child!
Nino: Father?
Sonia: You're right, this really is a job for your sons. However, we've seen nothing of them since their last report.
Nino: Poor Lloyd. Poor Linus.
Sonia: So my daughter will do this. And I will have no complaints from you about it. No Jaffar.
Jaffar appears.
(Y/N): Wait, isn't that the same guy from Dragon's Gate?
Hector: Yes, one of Nergal's men.
Nino: But Jaffar is injured! He-
Sonia: Must you be so discourteous? It really is quite irritating. You heard the king's request, did you not?
Jaffar: Prince Zephiel... He wants him assassinated.
Nino: What? The prince? The king wants to kill the prince? Why? He's his son, isn't he?
Sonia: SILENCE!!
Nino: Sorry ... Mother.
Jaffar: Stop! I would gladly go. But leave her out of this.
Sonia: She is my daughter and must prove herse-
Jaffar: She is not fit for something like this.
Sonia: As long as you're with her, there should be no problem. I'll brook no disagreement. We must have the king in our debt. Those are Lord Nergal's explicit orders. You understand the consequences if you fail, right, Nino?
Nino: Y-Yes.
Soon...
Lyn: They want to assassinate the Prince?
