- Main articles:
In Search of Truth/Script (Eliwood) and In Search of Truth/Script (Hector)
Helman has received news of the fight between Zagan and Eliwood. Although Helman agreed to Ephidel's plan, it is clear that Ephidel sent in the bandits with the intention to kill Eliwood. For Helman, this is the last straw. He chastises Ephidel for not being forthcoming with his true intentions and begins to make preparations to receive Eliwood's party and explain everything. Ephidel calmly attempts to dissuade Helman from betraying the Black Fang. When Helman refuses to listen Ephidel announces that he has no use for the Marquess anymore and stabs him, leaving him to bleed out on the floor of his castle. Meanwhile, Eliwood and Hector approach Castle Santaruz only to be stopped by Boies who, with the intention of delaying them from saving Helman,[1] challenges them to make it to the castle alive and summons his underlings.
After Eliwood and Hector defeat Boise, they enter the castle and find Helman on the floor, slowly dying from the wound Ephidel inflicted upon him. In his final moments, Helman apologizes to Eliwood for the trouble he has caused and tells him that Darin, the marquess of Laus, knows all and to beware of the Black Fang. Eliwood and Hector decide to heed Helman's final words and continue on towards Laus to seek answers from its marquess.
Beginning log
Eliwood's tale: "Eliwood enters Santaruz, only to be attacked by a strange group. In a desperate moment, he is rescued by a childhood friend, Marquess Ostia's younger brother, Hector. The assailants' leader reveals that an unknown party seeks Eliwood's head...Eliwood cannot help but think this is related to his father's disappearance. In search of more traces of his father's footsteps, Eliwood sets out for the castle of Lord Helman, the marquess of Santaruz."
Hector's tale: "Hector rescues Eliwood and the two friends are reunited. The paladin Marcus reveals news: Someone has called for Eliwood's death.
