In the Fury of Battle
(Captain) and company are helping Lancelot rebuild the capital. A knight of the White Dragons tells them a supply caravan is being attacked by monsters, so the crew goes to help.
Some time has passed since the incidents with Isabella and Gareth, and peace has returned to the royal capital of Feendrache.
Monsters rampaged through the town, and Lancelot is leading the reconstruction efforts.
Lancelot: I'm really sorry to drag all of you into this, (Captain).
Lyria: No, it's fine! We'd love to help you if we can. Just tell us whatever you need!
Vyrn: Yeah! You've been working nonstop without a break, Lancelot! You thought we wouldn't notice?
Lancelot: Heh... Thanks, everyone.
Vyrn: So where should we start?
Lancelot: Let's see... The construction materials should be delivered to the capital today.
Lancelot: It would actually be great if you could help transport them.
A knight of the White Dragons suddenly runs over, gasping for breath.
The knight tells them that the caravan has been surrounded by monsters and is now stuck en route.
Lancelot: Then we don't have any time to waste.
Lancelot: Sorry, (Captain), but I need you and your crew to go rescue them at once!
Vyrn: Just leave it to us! We'd better hurry, (Captain)!
In the Fury of Battle: Scene 2
After rescuing the caravan, the crew returns to the capital to find Vane working with carpenters and Percival arguing with a law-breaking merchant. When Lancelot questions him, the merchant flees, and (Captain)'s crew runs after him.
(Captain) and company rescue the caravan.
After returning to the capital, they deliver the construction materials to the carpenters.
Vane: Hey there! If it isn't Lancey, (Captain), and the gang!
Lancelot: Vane? What are you doing?
They find Vane and his subordinates working up a sweat right alongside the carpenters.
Vane: Hah hah hah! Well, you know, I've never been much for just sitting back and dishing out orders!
Vane: You think there's something wrong with me helping?
Lancelot: N-no... Not at all! I was just surprised.
Lancelot: Heh... I guess I should have known you'd jump in, Vane.
Lancelot smiles at the sight of everyone working together to finish the reconstruction.
Lancelot: So how's everything going anyway? Any problems?
Vane: Nope! As you can see, we're making steady progress. Thanks to everyone's help, we should be finished here real soon!
Lancelot: Glad to hear it. We'll be heading off now.
Vane: Cool, cool. Don't work too hard now, Lancey!
(Captain) and company say goodbye to Vane and resume their patrol of the city.
They suddenly hear a man shouting angrily.
Greedy Man: What's your problem, punk? You got something to say to me?
Percival: Humph... Don't snarl at me. I've gotten reports that your store's exorbitant prices are rankling the people.
Greedy Man: Aw, buzz off! I have the right to set my own prices, you know!
Percival: Indeed. But in times like these, don't you think we ought to work together and help each other?
Ruffian: Get out of here with that namby-pamby nonsense! If they don't like it, they can go to another store!
Percival: Hm... Also true. That's completely reasonable.
Percival: But matters of this sort tend to rub people the wrong way, negatively impacting morale and thus affecting the reconstruction.
Greedy Man: Are you trolling me, punk? Take your philosophizing elsewhere!
Lancelot: Percival! What's going on?
Percival: Oh, Lancelot. Perfect timing.
Percival: I was engaging this man in conversation, but he doesn't seem to understand my point.
Lancelot takes one look at the man and comes to a realization.
Lancelot: You there... I don't recognize you. Who gave you permission to set up shop here?
Greedy Man: Tch... You people are really on my case today.
The man empties his money box and takes off running.
Lancelot: Hey! Wait!
Lancelot: Percival! You run around and block him from the other side!
Percival: Very well... I guess some people just refuse to listen to reason.
Percival: In that case, I'll need your help, (Captain).
In the Fury of Battle: Scene 3
The crew captures the law-breaking merchant, but the incident stirs up more unrest among the citizens. Lancelot continues to work hard, but the ongoing decline of the country takes a toll on his spirit.
Working together with Percival, the party manages to capture the greedy man.
Witnessing this, the citizens begin to voice their concern under their breaths.
Townsman: Sigh... We never used to have scumbags like that in town.
Townswoman: Hmm... It feels like the capital's gotten more dangerous lately. I don't feel safe.
Lancelot: ...
Percival: What's wrong, Lancelot?
Lancelot: Oh, it's nothing. More importantly, have you seen Siegfried around by any chance?
Percival: Hmm... Siegfried? I think he left the capital on other business.
Lancelot: I see...
Percival: Did you need him for something?
Lancelot: No, it's okay. Thanks, Percival.
Percival: Don't mention it.
Lancelot: Now then, let's keep patrolling the town, (Captain).
Vyrn: All right! Time to put in a little more effort, everybody!
Lyria: Yeah! Let's go, (Captain)!
With some support from his good friends, Lancelot continues to work hard to rebuild the capital.
However, unbeknownst to him, his tough mental fortitude is wearing away bit by bit.
