Plot

Main article: Mt. Violdrake/Script

Leif's group leaves Castle Meath; they are accompanied by Carrion, a knight working under Hannibal, who is guiding them through the mountains to Tahra. Once some ways into the mountains, Carrion tells Leif that they should detour to Hannibal's mansion to meet up with several survivors from Leonster hidden there under Hannibal's protection. Carrion also tells Leif that Count Dryas is there, news that Leif is happy to hear.

Unfortunately, they encounter a mountain village under attack from bandits. Leif rushes to their aid and is confused to find that several of the bandits originate from Dagdar's group; including Marty. Carrion notes that this is strange; why would Dagdar's bandits attack a village under Dagdar's protection?

Before the battle begins a man named Gomez shown instructing a Thracian mercenary named Rumei to stop any and all intruders from entering Dagdar's mansion. Leif's forces capture and interrogate Rumei; Leif is informed that Dagdar and Tanya are in the mansion and Gomez is out to kill them. Leif frees Rumei and hurries into the mansion to rescue Dagdar and Tanya.

Beginning log

After reuniting with the Fiana Freeblades, Leif made his way west, led by the knight Carrion. He soon found himself at the foot of Mt. Violdrake, the headquarters of Dagdar's brigands...

Strategy

This section details unofficial strategies that may help with completion of the chapter. This may not work for everybody.

This section has been marked as a stub. Please help improve the page by adding information.


This is the first chapter that grants you access to battle preparations, so feel free to move your items and weapons around. It is also important to keep track of the fatigue level of your units and plan ahead, so make it a habit to review the state of your units before battle.

The battle itself is rather simple, as Leif's forces move left to handle Brigands and reach Dagdar's mansion. Marty has found himself on the enemy side, but when spoken to by Osian or Halvan, or captured, he'll defect. Do remember that Osian has Wrath and may ORKO Marty if provoked, however.

To play the following sidequest, Rumei must be captured, but not released. Do this before he mounts his wyvern on turn 16, though. In fact, one may have a mounted unit rescue Leif, warp said unit, drop Leif, and then capture Rumei to save turns. Simply promoting the mounted unit and rushing across the map works fine as well, so long as the unit has high bulk or avoidance.

Future chapters have plenty of doors to open, so purchasing some Door Keys at the vendor is also recommended.
