==Plot==

Worrying that the merging of the [[Begnion]] armies could spell the end of the war, [[Ranulf]] suggests to [[Ike]] that they regroup in Gallia. Unfortunately, the merging of the armies means that the [[Laguz Alliance]] is caught between the two, making retreating difficult. [[Tibarn]] then arrives covered in blood, worrying the two further. While Tibarn rests, his partners, [[Janaff]] and [[Ulki]], inform Ranulf of the situation: [[Naesala]] and the ravens have betrayed them once again, leading the Hawk Army to a trap helmed by General [[Zelgius]]. According to Janaff, Zelgius stopped fighting midway and allowed them to return home, saying that he had "delayed [them] long enough". When the hawks returned to [[Phoenicis]], they found that it was almost entirely wiped out.

{{strategy}}

When going for maximum [[bonus experience]], note that the [[Horse]]s provide it when they are kept alive, not if they escape; so, despite what may have been implied by the plot, it is best to simply leave the stables alone instead of breaking their doors open. As for the Senators, they produce an interesting dilemma; they drop items that can be sold for great amounts of [[gold]], but killing the Senators to do so will deprive the player of bonus experience. To circumvent this, [[Heather]] can be deployed so that she can [[steal]] the items, which will keep them alive and also allow the player to receive the bonus experience from them. This itself produces a different dilemma however, as it means sacrificing a limited deployment slot to a unit with very limited utility otherwise.
