Does anyone know what happened to that Frederick guy?

He's been away, hasn't he?

... Looks like it.

I wonder what's been taking him so long.

"Whatever might be going on there?" You sounded a little worried just now. And for as far as I've noticed, he left without as much as a goodbye.. Are you certain he -- and the rest you mentioned -- are not in trouble?

Haha, you really do have a great amount of confidence in him, don't you? ..I think that on its own is enough to convince me they're safe.
We will simply await Frederick's return, then.

I can't say I don't agree with you, young lady. It's important to keep believing in thoughts that make you happy. However, in cases where life and death play significant roles, it's sometimes necessary to view things from a more neutral perspective, in order to ultimately achieve a more realistic judgement.

.. Ah, but that's just your generic advice from an adult who thinks he knows everything. *brief smile* I suppose it doesn't apply to this situation. We don't know where they are, nor what they're doing, and then it's best to keep your head up and trust in their abilities to defend themselves, whatever may be going on. If there's even something going on in the first place.. Perhaps he simply chased after a merchant, and is now eating a piece of newly bought food somewhere.

I could bet that it's anything but bear meat! Haha!
Well, that perspective works when thinking up strategies, but usually I prefer the more happy things! I don't want my memories to be sad ones, even with all the warfare! So... I'll smile and wish for their safety!

He has left us? That's a shame. He seemed like a good Beorc to know.

My apologies for suddenly taking my leave, but a messenger from milord informed me I was needed immediately in Ylisstol for a reformation of the royal knights. I can happily inform you milord himself and the Shepherds I met were all in great shape, although the same couldn't be said about the furniture, the silverware and the weaponry, so I took it upon myself to polish and clean around the castle.

This guy's talking too much... I bet he's related to Bastian in some way.

It is good to see you returned alive and well.

I am relieved to see you are still unharmed as well. I pray that goes for the others too. Have there been any incidents during my absence?

There have been a few small incidents, but nothing that would have wounded anyone.

Basically.

I see. Have any accomplishments been made, perhaps? I tend to forget to ask about good news.

We've been joined by some that give good company.

Ah, I look forward to meeting them. I wonder if I might know any of them.

I don't think so. Unless you've heard about Princes Reyson and Rafiel, Princess Leanne and myself, Tibarn.

Nice to meet you by the way.

Hello ! It's very nice to meet you, my Lord.

Welcome... back... My name is L-Leanne...

I will try to memorise your names, but please forgive me if I fail to do so. I am Frederick, a knight of Ylisse.
It is an honour to meet you, lady Leanne. I have met your brother Reyson before.

If I may be so bold to ask, Tibarn, I've heard of white wings to indicate heron royalty, and I've met the raven king whose feathers are black, but never before have I seen someone with brown wings. Could it be that you are of a different race?

You're right, I'm a hawk. And don't even call this damn crow a king... I'm in fact the King of the Bird Tribe since the end of the war. But I'm not surprise you didn't hear about hawks, I'm the only one around here.

Now that you mention it, Tibarn, how come Ulki and Janaff haven't been around ?
