Inside of Santaruz Castle... 

Helman was conversing with Ephidel. 

Helman: Master Ephidel! What is the meaning of this?

Ephidel: Peace, Lord Helman. Whatever is wrong?

Helman: You said you were just going to frighten Eliwood! Your men almost killed him! My patience is at an end! I've decided I must tell Eliwood everything and apologize.

Ephidel: .....You would betray us?

Helman: I am tired of you and the Black Fang! Now, remove yourself from my castle! Your presence pains me!

Ephidel: Lord Helman...Is there nothing I can do to change your mind?

Helman: Nothing!

Ephidel: In that case...you're no longer of any use.

Outside... 

You and the gang saw the castle! 

(Y/N): We made it! 

Eliwood: We have to speak with Lord Helman...

But then more bandits came up! 

Boies: That's not gonna happen, laddie!

Eliwood: Who are you?

Boies: Who am I? Ah, boy, you'd do better to worry about yourself. You'll be worm's meat before much longer.

Hector: You think so? I think my axe'll change your mind.

Yang: HA! You're speaking my language, Hector!

Near a Fort... some Black Fang members were conversing... 

Black Fang Thug: Hey, you! Yeah, the new dog! Get this right, or you're gone!

Black Fang Thug: Hey, you! Yeah, the new dog! Get this right, or you're gone!

Guy

Guy: I know, I know. I just got this job! I don't want to lose it! 'Course, the smart thing to do would have been not to get involved with this ugly bunch. Got to have gold if I want to eat, though. I was too picky before. If I think about the time I passed out in Caelin...Ooooh. Nothing funny about that! That man...What was his name...Matthew? If it hadn't been for him, I would've starved to death.

While you all began to fight with the Black Fang thugs, a merchant was taking off from a village nearby! 

And then Guy approached you all, only for Matthew to recognize him! 

Matthew: Hold on! You! I know you! Isn't your name Guy?

Guy: It's–Is that you, Matthew?

Matthew: What a pleasant surprise! How's your swordwork coming?

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: What? Are you saying you're going to fight me?

Guy: I...Well, yeah. I'm much improved. You can't beat me.

Matthew: You're quite a terror, Guy. Well then... Hold on! I'd prefer it if you repaid what you owe me.

Guy: Huh?

Matthew: Last time I saw you, I gave you food. If I remember correctly, you said you owed me your life.

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: The people of Sacae never lie. Isn't that right, Guy?

Guy: Grrr... Fine! I finally find work, and now I have to throw it away! This is all your fault!

Guy hesitantly went onto the good guys side! 

(Y/N): Nice negotiation skills there, Matthew. 

At the same time... 

Hector and Yang were fighting Boies, and the two easily overpowered him! 

Hector: HAHA! TASTE MY AXE! 

He brutally injured him! 

Boies: You've beaten me...but you're too late to save him... Too...too bad, eh, laddie? GAHAHAHAHAAHA!

He then collapsed, dead. 

Eliwood: LORD HELMAN! 

Eliwood ran into the castle. 

Inside... 

Eliwood: Lord Helman!!

Helman: ... Is that you...Eliwood?

Eliwood: Hold on, my lord!

Helman: I... I must apologize... Your father... He...

Eliwood: Do you know something, sir?

Helman: I... ... If I hadn't told Elbert...about...Darin's plans...This would...never...have...Cough cough...

Eliwood: Lord Helman!

Helman: ..Go to Laus...Darin...the marquess of Laus...knows all.

Eliwood: Marquess Laus?

Helman: I'm sorry, Eliwood...I...I can't...

Eliwood: Hold on!

Helman: Beware...the Black...Fang.........

Eliwood: Lord Helman!

With that, Helman breathed his last breath. 

Soon... 

Eliwood explained everything. 

(Y/N): Crap. This is not good. 

Eliwood: Lord Helman mentioned something about the Black Fang. 

(Y/N): Black Fang? Hmm ... 

The moment Blake heard that name, she was sweating nervously. 

Weiss: Hey, just because their name is similar to the White Fang doesn't mean that they are like the White Fang. 

Blake: I know. It's just it sounds too similar. 

(Y/N): Alright, everyone, despite what has happened, we're all here. Eliwood and Hector have got their leadership skills. Our numbers are high, and we can still find this Marquess of Laus. Hey, Eliwood, do you know the way? 

Eliwood: Yes. 

(Y/N): Alright, let's get going!
