[[Eliwood]] believes his father is still alive and sets out to find him along with two of Pherae's remaining knights, [[Marcus]] and [[Lowen]].

Plot
- Main article:
Taking Leave/Script
A year has passed since Lyn reclaimed Caelin from her granduncle Lundgren. In that time, Marquess Pherae has disappeared along with Pherae's best knights. Eliwood believes his father is still alive and sets out to find him along with two of Pherae's remaining knights, Marcus and Lowen. While Lowen is scouting the nearby village for extra men to accompany Eliwood on his journey, a group of bandits led by Groznyi take over the village. Lowen manages to escape with the daughter of the village magistrate, Rebecca, who pleads with Eliwood to save her village; Eliwood agrees to lend his aid. Rebecca insists that she help as well, given her skill with a bow. If Mark is present, Lowen reveals that he also received an offer of help from a tactician who was staying at a nearby inn. Eliwood is pleased to have a proven strategist by his side and asks that they lend their aid against the bandits. During the battle, Bartre and Dorcas emerge from a nearby village to see Eliwood's efforts to liberate Rebecca's village, and decide to aid him.
After Groznyi is defeated, the village elder thanks Eliwood and his group for their gracious help. The elder also reveals that Darin, the Marquess of Laus, is making preparations for war. Marcus speculates that Darin's war preparations might be related to Elbert's disappearance, and Eliwood decides to head towards Laus to seek out any leads on his father's whereabouts.
Outside of the village, if Mark is present, Eliwood requests that Mark accompany him on the rest of his journey, to which they accept. If Rebecca survived the battle, she begins to follow Eliwood once he leaves, but is stopped by her father; he tries to dissuade her from travelling with Eliwood, but Rebecca insists, both to repay Eliwood for saving her life and for the chance that she may encounter her brother. Her father relents and allows Rebecca to join Eliwood's group.

Strategy
This section details unofficial strategies that may help with completion of the chapter. This may not work for everybody. |
The easiest way to clear this chapter is to charge forward with Marcus as he can one round every single enemy with the Steel Sword. By contrast, to secure a kill with your other units often requires that the Brigands be weakened by two other units. If you decide to let Marcus take the majority of the kills, make sure Eliwood keeps pace with the rest of the group by rescuing him with Lowen. Such a strategy may seem like it will deprive your other units of experience, but Marcus will not be able to kill everything as he smashes his way to Groznyi so let your other units pick up experience from those units along the way. Even if you decide to focus on feeding experience and kills to your unpromoted units, do not be afraid to use Marcus. The ability to eliminate any enemy in a single turn is invaluable and can often save your weaker units from facing unnecessary risk.
Groznyi is barely stronger than the other Brigands on the map, meaning Marcus can take him out in one round, and he gains a decent chunk of experience if you let him take the kill. You can give the kill to your weaker units but the non-sword wielders will have somewhat unreliable hit rates; additionally, Eliwood and Lowen cannot double Groznyi, so expect to take at least an additional turn to finish the map.
As long as Eliwood uses his full movement range every turn or is rescue dropped on turns he cannot, Eliwood should be able to seize the gate by turn 5 or 6.
The only difference in hard mode is that there are three extra Brigands. None of them are particularly strong or threatening and can be taken out by Marcus in one round.
Trivia
- There is a translation error present in the opening dialogue of this chapter. The wording of the narration makes it seem as though Elbert has only been gone for a month; however, Erik later reveals in Chapter 14 that Elbert came to Laus to throw his support behind Darin and Nergal six months prior. Looking at the Japanese script, it becomes apparent that intended meaning of the line was that a month after Elbert disappeared, he was rumored to have died.[1]
