Event - Students of the Black Eagles

Date: 4/24
Black Eagle Classroom
Daytime

(Byleth enters the Black Eagles's Classroom, where they're greeted by their new class...)
Caspar: Wait. So our new professor is...you?! I didn't see that one coming.
Dorothea: Easy, Caspar. Aren't you being a bit rude?
Linhardt: You know it's a waste of time to expect politeness from him.
(Linhardt then looks at Byleth.)
Linhardt: It will be a pleasure learning from you, Professor. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to take a nap.
(Linhardt walks towards the classroom's corner, away from the camera.)
Bernadetta: Ah! Don't look at me like that! Oh, and...please don't talk to me too much either.
(Bernadetta quickly turns her back on Byleth. Dorothea sights as it happens.)
Dorothea: I'm sorry for the chaos you've walked into...
Ferdinand: I hear we are rather close in age, Professor. I hope you do not mind if we treat you like one of us.
Ferdinand: In our class, we try to treat each other as equals, despite any differences in age or status. Personally, I would love to include you in that inner circle.

I don't mind at all.

Petra: You have a gut, Professor. I will take great joy from your teachings.
Dorothea: Petra, I believe you mean to say that our professor has guts. That's a bit different from having a gut.
Dorothea: You can't go around saying someone so slim and attractive has a gut!
(Dorothea winks as she flatters Byleth.)
Petra: Oh? Please take my apologies. I have not yet mastered this language.
Edelgard: Professor, I want you to know that it's perfectly acceptable for you to treat me as you do the others. I may be the Imperial princess, but here at the academy, I'm just another student. That said, know that I have high expectations of you. And high hopes. But I'm certain you can lead the Black Eagle House to greatness.
Caspar: Sure, sure. Now, let's break the ice with a training session! I want to see our new teacher in action.
Petra: Why will the ice be broken? Is this a custom I have missed in my studies?
Caspar: Not real ice, just the ice of...um... Well, it just means let's get to know each other.
Bernadetta: I don't want to train! Let's stay in the classroom and...learn from a book.
Dorothea: Let's all calm down and have a nice cup of tea, how about? Doesn't that sound lovely, Professor?
Linhardt: Zzz...
(Linhardt's snores can be heard from across the room.)
Ferdinand: I know we all agreed to treat each other as equals, but there is a limit to what I can tolerate. The esteemed Black Eagle House requires order.
(As most members of the house bicker with each other, Hubert shakes his head and chuckles in amusement.)
Hubert: Looks like your first job will be to quiet down this racket. I don't envy you.
Edelgard: Ugh, they're not normally this...rowdy. I do hope you can manage, Professor.

Event - The Crest Scholar's Office

Date: 4/26
Professor Hanneman's Office
Daytime

(At last, Byleth visits Hanneman's office...)
Hanneman: Say, while you're here...I'd like to use this device I designed to determine whether the power of a Crest resides within you. Won't hurt a bit. Promise.
(Hanneman notices Byleth is still confused.)
Hanneman: You don't know about Crests? Well, allow me to tell you everything—absolutely everything—about them. Is your calendar clear? This will take a while.
Hanneman: Crests are a fascinating topic, but before one can dive deeply into said topic, one must first understand what Crests are. They are power incarnate. They are said to have been bestowed upon humans by the goddess countless ages ago. They exist within the flesh, and are passed down through bloodlines. Those who carry Crests may excel at magic, display exceptional strength, or any number of boons. Each Crest has its own power, the nature of which is beyond mortal understanding. For now.

And you believe I have a Crest?

Hanneman: I suspect as much, yes. But we won't know for sure unless I look into the matter.
Hanneman: As I said, Crests are passed down through the blood. However, just because someone carries a Crest does not necessarily mean their descendants will inherit it as well. Only a scarce few descendants of a Crest's bloodline end up inheriting that Crest's power. Perhaps one of your ancestors bore a Crest, and you just happened to inherit it. That is how a Crest usually presents itself, after all.

Choice 1 Choice 2
Do what you can to find out. There's no need to look into it.
(Support points with Hanneman go up.)
Hanneman: Yes, of course. I'll get to the bottom of it straight away.
Hanneman: I most strongly disagree! There absolutely is a need. My Crest research is of critical importance to the church, I'll have you know.
Hanneman: Since you are now a professor here, I must insist that you aid in my research. Of course...there are those who lack the foresight to aid in my endeavors, such as that stubborn Seteth. But such individuals are the rare exception.

Hanneman: Now then, please go ahead and hold out your arm over this device here.
(As instructed, Byleth holded one of their arms on Hanneman's device...)

Hanneman: What is this?! A pattern I've never seen before... Is it possible an as-yet undiscovered Crest has been detected?
Hanneman: To think there are still Crests out there that even I am unaware of! How thrilling!
Hanneman: Ahem... Pardon my unrestrained jubilation. I have much to consider. You may leave now. I have more research to do in regard to this Crest. Yes, so very much more research. But for now, your work here is done.
(Hanneman turns away in excitement.)
Hanneman: Hmm... What could this line here be indicating? Perhaps it represents a lack of symmetry... or perhaps... What in the world? Oh, I see... It may be connected to that, but to a greater degree than usual...
Byleth: ...

Event - The Black Eagles Rise

Date: 4/30
Training Grounds
Daytime

(Byleth and Edelgard lie in the training grounds as the mock battle draws near.)
Edelgard: It's finally time for the mock battle. This is my chance to measure your worth as an instructor. Do you think you can rise to the challenge?

Choice 1 Choice 2
Leave it to me. I'm concerned.
(Support points with Edelgard go up.)
Edelgard: So confident. This will be interesting.
Edelgard: That doesn't inspire much confidence, does it?

Edelgard: Each of us has undergone strict training. We're prepared for anything that comes our way. That means there's no need to hold back. Show us what you're capable of.
(Dimitri and Claude enter the room.)
Claude: Hey there! Did we miss our invite to this strategy meeting? Oh, no worries—we'll just join in now.
Edelgard: Simply tell me your weaknesses, and you're welcome to stay. But is there enough time to cover them all?
Claude: Ah, so you can't win unless you know my weakness? Poor princess. You really should believe in yourself more.
Edelgard: I spare no effort when pursuing victory. As a master of schemes, I should think you would understand.
Claude: Schemes? Me? I have no idea what you're talking about! I plan to fight fair and square, as ever.
Dimitri: Hearing the words "fair and square" from Claude can only be a bad omen.
Claude: Your Highnesses haven't known me for very long, but you already have me figured out, don't you?
Dimitri: No need to poke fun. I will fight with honor. That said, I will fight to win.
Edelgard: Yes, and the same is true of us. Right, Professor?

Choice 1 Choice 2
Don't go too hard on us. I don't intend to lose.
Claude: No use trying to hide how you really feel, Teach. I can see it in your eyes—you don't intend to lose. Dimitri: If that is how you feel, then I will not hold back.

(Hanneman and Manuela then enter the room.)
Manuela: Aw, how precious. Looks like you and the students have become fast friends.
Hanneman: While I am pleased that you are taking the initiative to acquaint yourself with the students, I'm afraid it's about time for the faculty strategy meeting.
Claude: Ah, how time flies! In that case, I'll see you later.
Dimitri: Edelgard. Professor. Be careful out there.

Battle: Rivalry of the Houses

Before Battle

Edelgard: The mock battle is finally here. Will you lead us to victory?

Player Phase 1

Jeralt: I'm sure you already understand, but the house that defeats the other two is declared the winner. Incidentally, I'll be overseeing this mock battle. So listen well if you want to win.

Enemy Phase 1

Lorenz: None of your shallow tactics are required, Claude. Ignatz and I will dismantle the opposition.
Ignatz: Me?! But I'm not ready!
Claude: Are you making light of our new professor? If you drop your guard, you're going to get hurt...

Dimitri: Ashe, can you move to the front lines? I want to lure the enemy this way.
Ashe: Got it, Your Highness! Leave it to me!
Dimitri: Once you've finished preparing, make your move. Dedue, Mercedes. Keep our enemy occupied until then.
Dedue: I'm on it..
Mercedes: Oh my! We'll try our best!.

Enemy Phase (Enemy unit has been defeated)

Claude: Well done, Teach! I may have to take this seriously after all!

If Approaching the Golden Deer First

Claude: Let's use the forest to set up an ambush. I'm counting on your support, everyone!

Jeralt: If they're waiting in the forest, we'd do well to take a detour.

If Claude is Surrounded

Claude: Welp, we're surrounded. All we can do is fight back with all our might!

If Approaching the Blue Lions First

Claude: Are you really gonna fight two houses at once? Heh, an impressive display of confidence.

Dimitri: This is a good opportunity for us. Let's forge ahead!

If Approaching the Blue Lions After Dealing With the Golden Deer

Dimitri: Beautiful work, Professor. But the true challenge starts now!

Boss - Claude

Vs Byleth:

— Claude Vs Byleth

Vs Edelgard:

All Enemies Have Been Defeated

Jeralt: All right, that's that! The winner of this mock battle is... The Black Eagle House!

Edelgard: Even though it was just a mock battle, we defeated both houses masterfully. Take pride in this victory, everyone!

Event - The Mock Battle (Black Eagles)

Reception Hall
Afternoon

Edelgard: Excellent work today, Professor. Though our victory should come as no surprise.

Choice 1 Choice 2
It was a close call. It was easy.
Edelgard: Was it? I'm not sure I agree with that. Edelgard: Yes, it was. Further proof that you're well qualified to guide the Black Eagles.

(The rest of the Black Eagle House then reunites around Byleth.)
Petra: That was impressing, Professor! I mean...impressive. We gained a victory because of your great leadership.
Dorothea: We certainly did. We all tried our best, of course, but we couldn't have won without you.
Ferdinand: I was curious what it would look like if you did not hold back. And you did not disappoint!
Hubert: Hmph. I daresay we owe our victory to Lady Edelgard.
Linhardt: How so? For that battle, she was only a soldier following our professor's command. Sure, she was an incredibly powerful soldier...
Caspar: Don't worry about it too much, Linhardt. All that matters is that we won!
Bernadetta: I'm all done with being on the battlefield, OK? I'd rather stay back than pursue victory out there.
Edelgard: You are all as ridiculous as always. We only managed to win because we worked together.
(The rest of the Black Eagles stare at Edelgard silently.)
Edelgard: Was it something I said?
Edelgard: Is it so odd, me talking about togetherness? If so, that perception must change. In fact, I'm canceling the festivities so we can discuss this topic further.

Edelgard: I'm kidding, of course. Come on, everyone! We've earned this celebration.
(The Black Eagles nod in agreement.)

Event - Report: Great Tree Moon

Audience Chamber

(Byleth reports to Rhea.)
Rhea: Your work with the students was remarkable. I can see Jeralt trained you well. I do hope you were able to use the occasion to bond with the students.

Choice 1 Choice 2
I did. Not really.
Rhea: I am so happy to hear it. Nothing would please me more than if you used this coming year to grow closer still. Rhea: Oh? Well, you have only just met them, so I suppose that should come as no surprise.

Seteth: Of course, the mock battle was mere practice. The real fight is the Battle of the Eagle and Lion, which will take place during the Wyvern Moon. You are expected to properly train your students so as not to humiliate the academy during the long-held tradition that is the coming battle.
Rhea: As for today, I have called you here to tell you of your mission for the month ahead. Your class is to dispose of some bandits causing trouble nearby.

Choice 1 Choice 2
My mission? Bandits?

Seteth: Those affiliated with Garreg Mach Monastery have a moral obligation to help those in need, regardless of social standing. Students are no exception. Each month, before the newly birthed moon departs, each house of students must complete their assigned mission. You shall work to complete the task at hand alongside your students and report back to the archbishop before the deadline. Understood?
Seteth: I will soon provide you with the necessary details for your first mission. If I told you now, I expect you would only forget, and I despise repeating myself.
Rhea: I can sense something special within your heart... I have high hopes for you.
(Rhea and Seteth then leave the room.)

Sothis: Bandits, they say...
Byleth: ?! (The voice of Sothis is heard again, which confuses Byleth as she doesn't seem to be anywhere in the room.)
Sothis: Do you recall when we first met? You shall not fall so shamelessly again, correct?
Byleth: ...
Sothis: Have you no words for me? Do not tell me that you are shocked to hear from me! You ought to know that I am always with you now. To hear my voice should not come as a shock.

Choice 1 Choice 2
Right. I don't understand...
(Sothis sighs in disappointment.)
Sothis: Whatever shall I do with you?
(Sothis proceeds to explain herself.)
Sothis: I am alive within the confines of your heart. I am unknown to all but you. But through your eyes and ears, I see and hear. Just listen to your heart, as you are doing now, and we may speak like this. That is all that I know.

Byleth: ...

(Meanwhile...)

Zanado, The Red Canyon
Daytime

Kostas: What is this nonsense?! All I was told was to kill as many noble pipsqueaks as possible! No one said anything about the Knights of damned Seiros being on our trail!
(The thief who had previously attacked Edelgard, Dimitri and Claude is complaining to someone wearing a mask and an armor hidden by a cloak...?)
???: You have proven yourself worthless. Distracted by something so trivial. I had hoped you would achieve your goal despite the setback. But now a child of the knights' former captain is in play. How interesting.
Kostas: Hey! This isn't what I agreed to!
(The masked figure seems to be lost in thought...)
???: Hiring a mercenary as a professor. What was that woman thinking...
Kostas: Are you listening to me?! How do we finish this?!
???: You die.

Kostas: Wh— What?!
???: Underestimating the knights was an amateur mistake. One you will pay for. The road to eternal torment awaits you all.
???: Now I must locate your replacements...
(The masked person teleports away as Kostas tries to catch them up.)
Kostas: Wait! Get back here! Damn you!
