Plot
- Main article: New Resolve/Script
Eliwood and the others are finally on their home stretch, having left the Dread Isle. Eliwood is still under incredible stress due to the death of his father.
At Badon, Lyn, Ninian, and Nils talk about the last time they were together, and Hector, whom is also present, asks that the conversation be something he can actually follow, as he was not present when the trio first met. Lyn introduces Nils and Ninian to Hector. Lyn also acquaints Eliwood to Ninian and Nils, though Nils still remembers when Eliwood rescued Ninian from the Black Fang a year ago.
Nils mentions that Eliwood and Elbert are very similar in appearance and demeanor. Nils also clarifies that Elbert was the one that freed them from Nergal's clutches. Nils mentions that he sensed something dangerous, causing him to arrive at the Dragon's Gate just in time to prevent Ninian from summoning a dragon from the gate. Lyn apologizes to Ninian for bringing her right back to Nergal, though Ninian says Lyn did nothing wrong.
The conversation takes a more serious turn, as Nils begins to explain Nergal's ambitions and his source of power, quintessence. Nergal's current goal, and the motivation behind starting the Lycian rebellion plot, was to start a war to gather large amounts of quintessence from the deceased during the fighting. Nils mentions that Nergal lost interest in the war plot due to the exquisite quality of the quintessence belonging to Elbert and his squad of Pheraen knights. Nils continues recounting his time imprisoned with Elbert, Elbert was the only light in the dark for Ninian and Nils during their time in Nergal's captivity. Eliwood breaks down again at the conversation, and the others, sans Ninian, leave him some time alone. Eliwood and Ninian mourn their troubles together, but this is interrupted by Ninian sensing enemies nearby.
Outside, Lyn, Hector, and Nils are discussing the current status of Nergal. Lyn believes that the wound Nergal sustained from Elbert would be fatal, though Nils thinks otherwise, clarifying that Nergal's magic heals wounds quickly and prevents aging. Before Lyn can continue the conversation Nils has the same reaction as Ninian, and senses enemies nearby. Eliwood exits the nearby tavern and says he wants this fight over quickly. Preparations occurs at this point.
At the start of the battle Ninian also leaves the tavern and demonstrates her dancing. Nothing particularly important happens during the fighting, and Oleg and the other Black Fang are routed. Eliwood begins determining their next course of action, as Nergal is still out there and after them. He comes to the conclusion that they should meet with Hector's other brother and the Marquess of Ostia, Uther. Hector is slightly worried about this, as he has neglected to send Uther correspondence during their travels to Valor. Eliwood lightens up for a moment, finding Hector's shenanigans uplifting.
Marcus takes Eliwood aside for a moment to mention he has contacted Eleanora about the death of her husband at his own discretion due to Eliwoods distress. Eliwood thanks Marcus for this. With convenient timing, Eleanora's guard, Isadora arrives to tell them that Eleanora has received word of Elbert's death. Isadora delivers the message "Obey your father's dying wish." and agrees to travel with Eliwood.
With a change of scene, Nergal, Sonia, and Limstella are shown back at the Dragon's Gate. Nergal is planning his next step. Nergal commands Sonia to get the Four Fangs after Eliwood, Limstella to gather quintessence.
