Plot

Main article: The Liberation War/Script

Leif meets with Seliph and his troops in Ulster, where they discuss the situation and consider what to do next. Eventually they decide to divide their forces; Leif will move to Munster to liberate it, while Seliph will take Connacht.

After the meeting, Leif talks to August and tells him that he finds Seliph incredible and that he thinks he is a disgrace to Leonster, especially compared to Seliph. August replies that Leif has grown a lot lately and that he will soon be a man of Seliph's caliber. Leif and August then decide that their army's next target must be Fort Danzig, since it controls the road inland to Munster, where they eventually want to go.

Leif's troops set out and defeat the enemies on the way to Fort Danzig, including a group of Wyvern Rider mercenaries led by Seimetol and other soldiers led by Fraus. During the battle, Linoan can visit a church, where the presiding bishop informs her that she has minor Holy Blood of Naga, as her bloodline is descended from Saint Heim; the bishop then helps Linoan awaken her power.

When Leif and his army reach Fort Danzig, they learn that the fort is being used as a prison camp. If none of the player's units have been captured, the camp will have been deserted, and Leif and his army continue to the River Thracia. If any of the player's units have been captured, Leif learns that the prisoners are to be executed in response to his attack, and he immediately orders the storming of the fort to save the prisoners; August tries to protest, but eventually relents and instead suggests that Leif lead only a handful of troops into battle, as most of his soldiers are exhausted.
