A Peace of the Pie - Chapter 5: Mixed Feelings - Episode 4

General Hassan hands the crew papers declaring Torwa's acceptance of peace talks and sends them off to the Ice Crystal Palace. Knowing that the Crystalia are under attack by Souval, the crew rushes to save Lily.

---

The fighting gets more and more intense. The Central Plains become one huge, chaotic battlefield.

The party desperately tries to stop the fighting, but both sides of the battle are in full swing, and no one is in the mood for talks.

Vyrn: Wheeze... Wheeze... It's no use. We can't stop them. There are too many of them.

Lyria: But we've got to do something!

At that moment a sudden, blinding flash of light envelopes the whole area.

The party looks up to see a blue pillar of light rising from the ground in the direction of the Ice Crystal Palace that reaches up to the sky.

Vyrn: Whoa! What's that?

Lyria: I don't know, but you can just feel the energy in it!

Souval 2: Huff... Huff... The fighting's starting in the Ice Crystal Palace now too.

Vyrn: What? I don't get it.

Souval 2: It's Chieftain Grueler. When the war started, he put his initial plan into motion—to destroy our natural-born enemies first.

Lyria: Agh!

Lyria: Move! Everyone move!

Vyrn: Lyria, it's too dangerous! You can't risk crossing this battlefield now.

Lyria: I have to! I promised I'd protect her!

Vyrn: I know you did. I'm as worried as you are. Come on, let's skirt around them.

Lyria: But we'll be too late if we do that.

General: All troops, stand down!

Scout: That's a direct order from the general, men! Stand down! The city council has made its ruling!

Vyrn: Hey, it's the general!

General: Ah, there you are. I'm sorry it took me so long, but I've persuaded the city council to join the talks.

Lyria: Really?

Scout: Sir, it's chaos on the battlefield. Our ranks are broken and the order to stop fighting can't get through.

General: Humph. Well, we have to put a stop to this somehow. First things first let's secure a safe path to the Ice Crystal Palace.

General: I need you to deliver these papers to the Souval chieftain while I get things under control here.

The papers that the general hands over are a formal agreement to talks and an acceptance of the Souval's terms.

General: I don't imagine she'll be in any mood to forgive us, but please also pass a message from me to that young Crystalia, Lily.

General: Tell her I'm sorry.

Lyria: Leave it to us! We'll do everything we can.

Scout: This way, folks! I'm afraid there are still troops from both sides in the way, but you should be able to make it!

Vyrn: No problem. We'll get through! Even if we have to use some muscle to do it!
