[[August]], feeling that time is of the essence, instructs [[Leif]] to have their forces enter the fortress's dungeons to clear out any remaining troops and rescue any [[child hunts|child prisoners]] before they are executed.
[[August]], feeling that time is of the essence, instructs [[Leif]] to have their forces enter the fortress's dungeons to clear out any remaining troops and rescue any [[child hunts|child prisoners]] before they are executed.


[[Kempf]] is then seen ordering a begrudging [[Oltoph]] to stay behind and fight to the death to guarantee escape. Kempf also orders Oltoph to execute any remaining prisoners as an afterthought and makes his way to the exit.

Olwen, who is locked in one of the cells with some children, witnesses their terror and fully grasps what the child hunts really are. The children are initially angry at her due to being a soldier of the [[Grannvale|Empire]] but she reassures them that she will help them escape. She is freed by Leif's forces and her subordinate [[Fred]] during the fighting.

She is freed by Leif's forces and her subordinate [[Fred]] during the fighting.


After Friege's forces are cleared out of the dungeon and the children escape, Olwen overhears August and [[Dorias]] discussing the honor of house Friege in light of the fact that [[Ishtar]]'s romantic relationship with [[Julius]] and open participation in the child hunts makes the entire house followers of [[Loptous]]. Olwen is confused by this information and voices her objections to this; she then agrees to accompany Leif's forces to learn the truth of what the Empire, and her brother [[Reinhardt]], have really been doing.

Units are arranged based on their position in deployment order after Leif.
[[File:Cm fe05 11x prisoners.png|thumb|Placement of returning units captured in the previous chapter.]]
Additionally, up to twelve units that were [[capture]]d in the previous chapter will return here as prisoners in the upper cells. They are positioned based on their place in deployment order in the previous chapter. If thirteen of the fourteen deployable units were captured, the unit last in deployment order will not be present; however, they will still be re-recruited at the end of the chapter. The second, fourth, fifth, and sixth prisoners will overlap with [[Olwen]] and the [[Civilian]]s; they cannot be interacted with until the NPC no longer shares the tile, either through movement on their turn, being [[rescue (command)|rescue]]d, or being killed.
Version 1.06 of the [[Fan translation#Fire Emblem: Thracia 776|Lil' Manster fan translation]] adjusted the positions of the first six captives, placing them in the middle cell rather than sharing Olwen's (shifting each of them four tiles west).<ref>{{Cite web|quote=In chapter&nbsp;11x, if you had units captured and taken away in the previous map, they would mistakenly be sent to Olwen's cell, occupying the same tiles as its occupants and preventing your units from moving.

The main difficulty of this chapter comes not from fighting, but rather from avoiding fighting. Most of the enemies here have 2 range weapons that will chip at your units with lower bulk or avoid. This is a great chapter for units with strong 2 range, like [[Asbel]], [[Osian]], [[Selphina]], and [[Dagdar]]. Bring a door key or lockpick for [[Oltoph]]'s room, and feel free to capture him, since his lack of a weapon that can counter at 1 or 2 range means he is an automatic capture for anyone with more [[constitution]] than him. Siege tomes sell for a good profit. Another option is to simply [[Warp (staff)|warp]] to the boss and kill or capture him (the latter can only happen after killing an adjacent enemy) so that he doesn't cause any trouble with his siege tomes, though this requires the warped unit to survive all of the enemies in the throne room.

[[Fred]]'s appears on turn 2, and the main goal with him is to make a beeline for [[Olwen]]'s cell. It is best that he attacks the soldiers at 2 range, as he will do magic damage.
On turn 30, Oltoph stops attacking and runs to escape, which also opens the door. If the player cannot open the door, they must wait for this event. If the player blocks the escape tile, he will be unable to escape. It is possible to abuse this to safely neutralize Oltoph when combined with a magically resistant unit, though this is not viable for an SSS rank run.
 
[[Fred]] appears as a player unit on turn 2, and the main goal with him is to make a beeline for [[Olwen]]'s cell. It is best that he attacks the [[Soldier]]s at 2 range, as he will do magic damage. Due to the fact that Olwen is standing right next to the cell door and won't move, the Soldiers (who are armed with [[Javelin]]s) will continually attack and may kill her if Fred does not hurry. If the player fears her death, they can use Warp to send a unit up to protect her, though she can not be rescued with the [[Rescue (staff)|Rescue staff]] until she is recruited. [[Soldier]] reinforcement will appear as well, though fortunately the one adjacent to Olwen's door has a [[Short Lance]] and will block the Javelin Soldiers from attacking. The Short Lance Soldiers have strange AI, and will sometimes refuse to attack Fred and stay still<!--Needs more testing-->, so leaving them be is for the best.
 
Also, note that the cells in the northern part of the map have the purpose of containing the player's captured units if they were captured in the previous chapter. However, this is very unlikely to have happened due to the previous map having few enemies and only one place for them to escape with a captured player unit. The player should use the [[Rescue (command)|Rescue mechanic]] to keep their units safe from the enemy Soldiers.

*One of the childrens' names, Sera, bears resemblance to [[Serra]]—a playable [[cleric]] in {{FE7}}, and [[Sara]]—another playable cleric from this game.

*Oddly, Olwen is mounted during preparations despite being indoors. Once the chapter proper begins, she automatically dismounts.

|jap-mean=Literally translates to something like "Murder Hollace". A common theory is that it is intended to be "[[wikipedia:Murder-hole|murder holes]]", but "holes" was transcribed into Japanese literally as ホレス ''horesu'' instead of something like ホールズ ''hōruzu''. This is supported by Kempf's other dirty tactic being called "[[wikipedia:Portcullis|portcullis]]", another fortification in castles.
